How To Get Robin Right. April 25, 2023


 With a sequel to The Batman in production, director, Matt Reeves, is talking about introducing Robin. A lot of people are split on this, considering Robin, even if he is the most famous superhero sidekick, to be Batman's Jar Jar Binx. That is, his only purpose is to sell more toys and make kids laugh. But if you look back on why he was written into the comics, you will find he is an important part of Batman's character growth. He helped him see once and for all that not all of Gotham City is corrupted by crime and regain his sense of humor. That said, if they introduce the character, make him at least eighteen, so things won't feel inappropriate. An adult hanging around a kid in the 1940s may have been acceptable, but this is a new century. And also keep the tone, mainly serious. That is all I'll say about it.
