This is how Tim Drake last looked back in Batman #146. Ruminating on the reality of Batman – did this android Batman really have Bruce Wayne's mind?
And this is how he has looked out of the shadows of late…
…and as a new figure from Todd McFarlane.
But it looks like he is getting a new costume, for Batman #148, out this Tuesday, with Tim Drake going up against the False Damian Wayne Robin created by the Zur-En-Arrh Batman and cloned from Bruce Wayne himself. As False Robin says…
So Tim Drake has dropped the Robin Redbreast (which I don't know if anyone has called it before, but they really should, like Superman's red underwear) and gained a bigger face mask to cover his cheeks. And dropping the bright yellow entirely. Is that armour instead of the gloves with fins?
