Call me crazy, but I always imagined if Robin was introduced in this franchise he would have a dark, somewhat goth/Underworld vibe to him. I personally would like to see Robin in the franchise somewhere down the road, but I think it would just get too messy. I appreciate the route Nolas has taken in terms of grounding this franchise in our real world experience. With that being said, here are some problems that would need to be addressed:
-Bruce Wayne adopts a teenage boy. Batman all of the sudden employs a teenage boy as his new crime-fighting partner, who happens to look a lot like Bruce Wayne's new ward.
-Robin's mask seriously needs to be revised/revamped/etc. Either that or Grayson must take much more drastic measures with his face and hair when suiting up.
-How successful would a trained, 15/16 y.o. kid be in hand-to-hand combat with grown ass adults?
