Always incompetent and unexperienced… Well, unless he is going against Jason in which case he is just a dick because they need to make Jason’s unfounded reasons for hating him valid. It is always that way, if we get something different then the writers takes a turn and gives us more of the same (Batman & Robin vol. Jason gets the dumb treatment in his own books but when he teams up he always looks like the ✨angry✨, ✨misunderstood✨, and incompetent one because he died when he was Robin. It is like writers cannot get past their own bias, which while understandable it also comes off as unprofessional. If you have a book/issue with both of them you will always see a difference in how they are treated.

Yes, Dick was in the same semester of college for a full irl decade. ( Ref - Teen Titans vol 1 #53, 1978.)ĭick goes to Hudson University ( Ref - Batman #217, 1969) …but drops out after the first semester ( Ref - Detective Comics vol 1 #495, 1980). If you chose the version where they’re the same age (meh), then they dated as teens and went to prom together. If you chose the version where Babs is older (hell yeah), then Dick has a crush on the cool, older Batgirl. Age - Depending on your choice of retcon, Barbara is either a few years older than Dick and in her late teens, or the same age as Dick and in her early teens.( Refs - Detective Comics vol 1 #359, 1967 retold in Batgirl: Year One, 2003.) This could probably be placed before the Teen Titans and/or JLA form without messing up the timeline.
Ages - Dick is in his early teens, as are all his friends.īarbara Gordon dresses up like Batman to mess with her dad at a costume party, ends up actually fighting a crime, and decides to stick around as Batgirl.Partially retold in Teen Titans: Year One, 2008.) ( Refs - original: The Brave and the Bold vol 1 #54, 1964, then flashbacks in Teen Titans vol 1 #53, 1978, then The Brave and the Bold vol 1 #60, 1965 and onto Teen Titans vol 1, 1966. Batman is usually a founding member, but sometimes not, depending on which of many retcons are currently in place.ĭick forms the Teen Titans with Garth/Aqualad, Wally West/Kid Flash, Donna Troy/Wonder Girl, and Roy Harper/Speedy. Superman/Batman Annual #1 from 2006.) Robin and Superman also become friends :) ( Refs - original: Superman vol 1 #76 from 1952.
To make the timeline work with Tim’s later introduction, I tend to declare him 11 here.īatman and Superman meet and learn each other’s identities.
Age - Dick is anywhere from 8 to 12 like I said, this story has be retold so many times.This has been retold an uncountable number of times, e.g. ( Refs - original: Detective Comics vol 1 #37 from 1940. In some order or another, he is taken in as Bruce Wayne’s ward, becomes Robin, and works with Batman to have Zucco arrested. The Early Yearsĭick Grayson’s parents are killed by Tony Zucco. This isn’t so much a reading list, but I have included references. Onward to my very long, probably more information that you wanted, timeline for the Post-Crisis era, because this is a post-crisis supremacy blog. If you want to start at the beginning-ish, consider Batman Chronicles: The Gauntlet and Robin: Year One for some of Dick’s early time as Robin.) Also, you don’t need to read it I promise you already know everything it has to say. Never read anything written by Frank M*ller. They do not have your best interests at heart. (And my real rec for anyone just starting batfam comics is to ignore everyone telling you to read Batman: Year One.

If you like the former–or if any particular item/period of time on this long list appeals to you–feel free to come back and I will give you more details of which issues specifically to read. If you like the latter approach, you can very likely search for “ best stories” and get some good recommendations. Possibly relevant to your interests: the Dick Grayson specific timeline I did earlier.Īs for where to start, that depends on you! Personally, I felt compelled to read things in order–but most people just pick a character and read piecemeal. At all times I would love to ramble on about DC comics timelines, yes, absolutely.
