13 COVERS: ROBIN in the MODERN AGE

Posted By Dan Greenfield on Dec 6, 2015 | 0 comments

This was the toughest one.

So we’re getting ready to wrap up this year’s ROBIN WEEK. As part of it, we’ve done 13 COVERS round-ups of various eras. But the period since the mid-’80s is not only the longest in comics history, it’s one chock full of different Robins.

So what to do? Wing it! Holy pun intended!

Here are 13 of my favorite Modern Age Robin covers featuring Jason Todd, Tim Drake, Damian Wayne, Stephanie Brown, Carrie Kelley — and even Dick Grayson and Barbara Gordon.

They (and we) are Robin.

(My standard caveat: This is a subjective list and not a ranking of any kind. This is pretty much what I dig and you may feel very differently. So, rather than beef about a cover you don’t see, instead join in the fun and share your own choices in the comments section or in whatever social-media thread you saw this.)
