Holy coming out, Batman!

Robin’s bisexual narrative unfolds in what one fan calls a “lightbulb moment” as he and Bernard find themselves in a streetside brawl. After the hero ultimately rescues Bernard, Robin later pays him a visit at his apartment.

Wasn't Robin's real name Dick Grayson?

In the world of superheroes and supervillains, sidekicks don't have a long lifespan.

It’s only fiction, but to the left it is reality. In their reality no one is normal.

Believe it or not, even Wilhelm II had a Batman. Probably a good thing he didn't have a Robin.

They change them sometimes to keep the storylines circulating. So Dick Grayson dies and then there’s another Robin (or Batman has no sidekick). Then a few years later, maybe the Dick Grayson story line starts over again.

"Dick Grayson wasn’t…"

Yeah, but he dated yellow chicks.

Burt Ward, Robin in the 1960’s TV series, and Adam West were reportedly surrounded by (female) groupies back in the day.

Like the most basic animals living off of primitive urges. The strange thing is that it’s an unsustainable lifestyle that won’t reproduce. How can that be natural?

No one reads DC comics anymore. Or Marvel. American kids who would have read them in previous eras now turn to Japanese manga.

It's a cartoon character. He is not "coming out".

More likely, the cartoonist has something to tell us about HIMSELF.

Not to forget that the REAL Robin (Burt Ward) got his girlfriend pregnant out of wedlock.

And he had an excellent tutor. Legend has it that the REAL Batman (Adam West) bedded girl groupies six at a time.

Herself. The writer and the illustrator are both female. It's business. It's the culture. Probably not personal.
