The Caped Crusader returned
and was cooler then ever, in the animated action-packed series -- "The
New Batman Adventures".
When last we saw Robin, he and Batman were fighting tirelessly for justice in crime-ridden Gotham City. These days, however, things have changed. Dick Grayson (Robin) is no longer a boy, in fact, he's now a college graduate who has just returned from traveling the world, much like Bruce Wayne did years ago. Living abroad enlightened Grayson and enabled him to study various crime fighting techniques. When the time came to return to Gotham City, Grayson had to consider returning to his role as Robin. Ultimately, he decided that he had outgrown his position as Batman's sidekick and was ready to embark on his own crimefighting career as Nightwing. However, Nightwing (Grayson) can periodically be found teaming up with Batman, offering a few revolutionary crime fighting techniques of his own. Knowing things wouldn't be the
same without his trusty sidekick Robin, Batman befriends Tim Drake, an
abandoned 13 year-old boy adopted by Bruce Wayne. Tim's real father is
a small-time hood who stole money from the evil villain Two-Face and left
town. When Tim becomes caught up in the war between Two-Face and his father
(which culminates in Two-Face's attempt to kill Tim), Batman intervenes
and rescues him. Knowing how hard it is growing up without parents, Batman
takes Tim under his wing and the "new" Robin is born. Tim is a kid through
and through, and it is his character's youthful energy which enlivens the
new "Batman."
Together these heroes dedicate their lives to eliminate each and every lying, conniving and cheating criminal from the underbelly of Gotham City, fighting the odds and risking their lives in the pursuit of justice. "Batman" is produced and animated by Warner Bros. Television Animation, under the creative supervision of Alan Burnett, Paul Dini and Bruce Timm. |
