Robin & Batman: Jason Todd

A New Three-Issue Miniseries Spotlighting the Early Days of a Very Different Dynamic Duo

Written by Jeff Lemire; Art by Dustin Nguyen

Series Debuts June 11

In 2022, one of comics’ greatest storytellers presented a heartfelt, beautiful and epic retelling of the early days of the Dynamic Duo, delving into the history of Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson. On June 11, the Eisner award-winning team (Descender) of Jeff Lemire and Dustin Nguyen reunite to tell the story of Batman’s most tortured and complex Robin, as DC today announced plans to publish Robin & Batman: Jason Todd, a three-issue DC limited series, available at participating comic book shops and digital retailers.

Batman has a new Robin, Jason Todd. Jason is a rash, impulsive and reckless kid with a troubled past, who Batman was certain could be molded into Gotham’s next protector. But can the Dark Knight save Jason Todd from the darkness within himself? And when a mysterious new villain, shrouded in white cloth and mystery, sets his sights on Jason, Batman realizes that even he has what it takes to train the anger and torment out of his new young ward.

The debut issue features a main cover by series artist Dustin Nguyen, with variant covers by series writer Jeff Lemire, Rafael Albuquerque and John McCrea & Mike Spicer. Lettering is by Steve Wands. Participating comic books shops have further details on availability and preordering.
