Lol, spaced out Joker don' know what Robin is. But really, Robin? Batman's Robin??? You don't know who that is????

[loony_lucifer]

Yup, ah figured, and zats fine, no vorries. XD

[aloneindarknes7]

Big fan right here!~

[loony_lucifer]

Oh score!

[aloneindarknes7]

Why exactly did you want to know?

[loony_lucifer]

Curiosity. And because (almost) everyone on my flist from Batman came over here because of Joker. Seeing if there's variety.

I had a total crush on him when I was a comics fan, a good 10 years ago... but after the awful movies and that fact that Nolanverse is my Batsy of choice... no, no no.
I just consider him unnecessary. =/

[loony_lucifer]

I kinda considered him that way too. ......or at least i tried to. I'm folding now i think. I guess you could say that it would be hard to see him in TDK. In would be hard to see him in reality at all. .......still. I suppose i could only avoid liking him for so long. Eventually it just had to hit me. v.v

There's so many interesting things about Batman's Robins though!
His attempts to steer them through tragedy, the way they react to and against his Mission and tactics, the way each of them has to work with Batman and try to live their own lives too... it brings out some pretty interesting sides of Bruce.

[memoryofgravy]

You cannot deny them for long... the obsessions rise to the surface whether you fight them or not. May as well let them come.

I don't know whether Nolanverse has just brainwashed me as far as the concept of Batman is concerned, but I just don't think Bruce would allow anyone else to follow in his footsteps, he wouldn't want that life for anybody else. The lovable emo dipshit that he is.

But Robin is just too much of a decent character with actual potential, so he refuses to just goddamn DIE.

[razothredfire]

I like some and dislike others. It depends on the interpretation (and which Robin it is.)

[loony_lucifer]

Apparently there was a girl Robin even. Who lasted for a total of three months. XD

[amat_vivere]

Yea she's in Batman: The Dark Knight Returns which I'm reading right now. It happens waaaayyy down the line in Batman's career, according to this graphic novel.

[loony_lucifer]

Weirdness. o_o

[thebiologicshow]

Me! Though pretty much only if it's Dick Grayson.

[loony_lucifer]

Hahahahaa. So. Many. Robins.
