This Thursday I'm giving my first speech for my Public Speech class, and it's going to be an informative speech about the four Robins! But there are a few important details I don't know, and was wondering if anyone on my flist does

1. If you are going with the 'fired' explanation (in some continuities, Dick quit), they had been arguing a lot, and then Dick got shot. Bruce freaked out, decided it was too dangerous for him, and fired him.

2. Black Mask, and she was taken to Leslie, who supposedly refused to treat her in order to truly show Bruce the cost of his mission.

3. He was Robin between Steph and Dad's deaths.

Well that's just stupid! That's sacrificing needlessly!

Thank you for telling me though, and I guess now I can tell the class Dick either quit or was fired. Depending on which continuity they want to go on.

4 - As of the beginning of Countdown, Jason's days of killing seem to be mostly behind him, as evidenced by the fight between him and Dick and Tim over Duela's death. He's only killed once since then, and it was a really bad guy that resembled a fish thing somewhere in the Palmerverse/Nanoverse. So yeah, I think his days of insanity are over. :p Donna and Kyle willingly working with him should prove that he's on the good side again.

Okay then, thanks for telling me :3

The answer to #1 will kind of depend on which person you ask and which continuity.

In the last reboot, Dick didn't get fired, he just moved on.
Sometimes he quits.
In one version, he got fired for not spending enough time as Robin in Gotham, as I recall.
He also gets fired because he got injured (Batman "fired" him to keep him out of danger).

#2, She was after Black Mask. As for the time of death, I think you are talking about Leslie Thompkins. She is the crime alley doctor that was with Steph when Batman said the immortal words "Make a hole" and worked through the crowd to get to the room where she was dying.

#4, I think is correct, but we shall see...

Ah okay, thanks for telling me!! And my goodness, explaining different continuities will be interesting X3

I'd say check wikipedia. The comic book wikis are pretty accurate and up to date.
