Batman was created in 1939 by Bob Kane and Bill Finger, but while the vigilante earned a reputation as a brooding loner superhero, Robin was created just one year later, debuting in Detective Comics #38. Over their 83-year history, the Bat Family has amassed a wide collection of masked crimefighters, many of whom wore the Robin mantle.
Being Batman's sidekick is a job much harder than it looks. Working alongside the Dark Knight is dangerous. Not only must the sidekick fight against crime with half the training Bruce has, but they often need to step up and become the balancing influence on Bruce's life. Knowing that, it's not a surprise there haven't been many Robins throughout the decades. Working in Gotham requires every hero to be a little smarter than the average crime fighter.
