The 1980s stories that introduced Tim Drake as the new Robin as collected in a new series, BATMAN: THE DARK KNIGHT DETECTIVE VOL. 2!
In these tales from the late 1980s, Batman's war on crime continues following the death of Jason Todd, the second young man to wear the guise of Robin. As the original Robin, Dick Grayson, establishes his new identity as Nightwing, Batman battles the Penguin, Two-Face and others while considering whether he will ever again take on a partner in crimefighting -- until he crosses paths with clever computer hacker Tim Drake, who deduces the Dark Knight's secret identity. Features stories written by legendary comics writers John Byrne (X-Men, Alpha Flight), Marv Wolfman (THE NEW TEEN TITANS, DEATHSTROKE THE TERMINATOR) and others, with art by classic Batman illustrator Jim Aparo and others.
