Robin and Catwoman also celebrate 80 years this year.

Well Dick Grayson's Robin at any rate, the others don't count yet.

It's kind of funny Dick Grayson started off as this goofy kid sidekick to Batman, especially in the early comics and 60's TV show, and then went on to become one of the most popular DC characters of his own.

It's hard to believe Batman would even allow a young kid in a circus outfit to fight crime with him. I guess "The Boy Wonder" really made it.

Dick, Jason, Tim or Damian?

DC was scheduled to release a high-profile Catwoman anniversary issue this month, but I'm assuming that's now TBD.

I have the Robin special. I picked up the
70s variant cover. LOVE IT! I know of the Joker one, but I did not know Selina was supposed to get one too. I never saw a solicit for it.

When we are celebrating the 80th anniversary of Robin we are celebrating the 80h anniversary of Dick Grayson's first appearance so why do the others get on the caped tail when its Mr. Grayson?

I was Robin for Halloween at age 5. I had to suffer through so many "where's Batman??" jokes(!) that night I nearly lost my love for the character, but alas it was not to be.

Dick Grayson is my favorite, especially when he takes on the role of Batman, but I think it's been interesting to see the other Robins develop as well.
