This episode was real good and exactly why I watched this show. It was my favorite episode of the whole series and the other episode were pretty hard to beat. It had the right amoun t of action and a good story to it as well. If you haven't seen this episode you haven't seen Batman.
This being my third favorite episode of Gotham Knights I felt it was time to do a review on it. For the second Robin they went with Tim Drake who was the third robin in the comics they didn't want to use the second Robin Jason Todd from the comics because he had a violent past and was killed by the Joker so they used his past and put it with Tim drakes name. batman saves tim from twofacve and takes him to the batcave and tim discovers batmans identity and when batman goes and finds two-face tim follows and puts on the Robin costume and Robin is Born. I really liked how they brought Dick Grayson back at the end of this episode. I think that this episode shold have aired first because they had this robin in the last episode but they introduced him in this episode. later...moreless
In this ep you get to see who the new robin is and his character delvelopment. They try to take a piece from an old ep. (robins reckoning) not sucessfully though. This robin is very eeewwww!! you almost want to see this kid die, Two face makes his first apearance on the vamped show and looks the same accept more sharped drawing. The story is well written for the most part accept robin seems to show no emmotion for key moments when he is supose to. Batman is ....well Batman, he is point blank honest even if he's talk'n to kids. The story see's Two face and his click trying to get Tim's dad because he has something of there's, when they can't find him they go after Tim. How Tim becomes robin is good but predictable revenge, but the way an old mate make an appearance is classic.moreless
Tim Drake runaway from Two-Face's gang and ran into Batman and later found himself in the Batcave and later became Robin the Boy Wonder! Robin join Batman and Batgirl to stop Two-Face before he blow Gotham City up! Will they stop him in time?moreless
Really a great way to begin the episode on Tim Drake. This episode is right to the point. Drake has alot of great senes of humor. It was great to see Dick Grayson at the end of this episode. But this episode stay focus on Drake on how he became Robin and Help Batman and Batgirl. I have to say it's one of the best episode of the series, next to Joker's Million.moreless
this was a great way to start off this series and the introducing of Tim Drake as the new Robin was great and kept in line with the comics. i didnt like the fact that they made Tim an orphan but i guess they did that for story integrity. at any rate everything else was top notch from the Robin-Two-Face connection (The original Robin in the comics had history with Two-Face), which is something played upon both on this show as well as the movies (Batman & Robin); the cherry on top i guess would be Dick Grayson's cameo at the end and his comment on Bruce's "rules"moreless
This episode was adapted in comic book format for The Batman Adventures Lost Years #3. The training scene at the end appeared in #5.
Edit
As of the "One Year Later" storyline in the comics, Robin's costume takes on a new look nearly identical to the one introduced in this episode (red and black with no green) with the exception of having longer sleeves and a slightly different cape (the one in the comics resembles Batman's). This marks one of the few times the comics have been inspired by the animated versions of the characters, others being Supergirl's costume taking on the version seen in Superman The Animated Series, as well as the introduction of the characters Harley Quinn, Renee Montoya, and Livewire into the comics after they debuted in the animated continuity.
Edit
In the comics, Tim Drake's father was named Jack and both he and Tim had much different backgrounds. Their backgrounds in this episode are very similar to Jason Todd and his father.
Edit
Robin: Its your kind of show, Puke-Face! A double feature!
Edit
Two Face: He stole something from me.
Tim: Your charming good looks?
Edit
Bruce: If you are going to work with me, Tim, you follow the rules. Rule number one, you give me everything you have. Rule number two, then you give me more. And rule number three, I make the rules.
Dick: (off-screen) Watch that last rule, kid - it's a killer.
Bruce: Dick.
Alfred: My word.
Dick: Hey, no one can be a boy wonder forever.
