Welcome once again friends to the Characters of DC. This month we have a very special guest or maybe I should say Guests. Welcome to a Round of Robins.
It’s the 80th anniversary of Robin so the Characters of DC Club along with several other clubs have banded together in celebration of this momentous occasion. There are several events scheduled throughout the month so please take the time to check out what the other clubs are doing. The other clubs involved this Robin Crossover event include: DC Animated Club, DC History Club, DC Superman Club, Renegade Robins, Trivia Tuesday, World of Bats and the Dick Grayson Fan Club. ) There will also be Robin Trivia begin presented by the esteemed HubCityQuestion on Tuesday March 3, 2020 so follow the link for that if you so desire.
Now whilst other clubs are covering the main four Robins I thought our focus here should be on some of the other characters who have worn the “R” outside of those four.

Discussion Questions:
-
- Which one of these Robins is your favorite?
-
- Do you think that Stephanie Brown made a good Robin? Why or why not? What about the others in this list?
-
- Do you feel that Batman needs a Robin or is he better off without a partner?
-
- If you could continue the story of any of the Robins we read this month who would it be and what would you do with the character?
And that’s all I have this month folks.
Now for a special announcement:
Characters of DC will be going on a temporary hiatus starting in April. I am planning to use this time to make a few changes to the club’s structure as well as some improvements. Keep an eye out on the main Characters of DC club page for updates as to when C of DC will be returning and thank you all for your support.
