Set The Mood: Robins Edition

ROBINSSTM


Robin. Robin. Robin. Robin. And, of course, Robin.

A.K.A. Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Tim Drake, Stephanie Brown, and Damien Wayne: all the kids brought up into the life of crime-fighting under the supervision of Batman himself. Though most of them have grown up and have long since left Batman’s side, they still find themselves relying on his guidance in the 11th hour.

Their joint journey as a birdfam has only just begun, but we can already see that things are picking up hot and heavy for the five of them when death literally comes crashing through their door one sweaty, sans-AC afternoon.

The art, dialogue, and overall suspense of this new series practically begged me to dip my toes in!

So here’s my Pinterest moodboard for the Robins team, centered on no particular Robin because my favorite Robin is all the Robins. :00_robin: And my graphic is an amalgam of Robins – a … a Robin-gam. An amalbin.


QUICK Q&A:

Hold up, Static. What the heck is a moodboard?
Putting it simply, moodboards are a series of graphics that are used as a way of capturing the atmosphere surrounding a particular subject to briefly immerse the viewer into the “mood” of said subject. Kind of like collages! Which is why there’s no right or wrong way to make one. You could make one entirely out of relevant quotes, or organize one by a certain color palette, or just fill it up with pics of things that represent the subject point-blank. It’s your board!

How do I make a moodboard? How do I post it here?
Personally, I find the easiest way to make moodboards is through Pinterest. For those who aren’t familiar with the site, it’s a hub for images/videos that can be added to “boards” you create based on personal interests or whatever you’re particularly searching for. Many people use it for the sole purpose of creating moodboards, so there’s plenty of stuff to work with there if you’re not inclined to create one from scratch.

That said, you’re also free to make one through any editing program if you don’t wanna go about making a whole Pinterest account! Just paste the graphic(s) here as you would any other image. If you’re doing a Pinterest board, feel free to drop the link to it, or provide a preview screenshot!

And finally, for those who don’t wanna do either of those things but still want to participate, you’re more than welcome to create a moodboard of your own here by posting any pictures you may find relevant and just sort of talking about your thought process on them. (Ex. post a photo of masks and talk about how that may relate to “Crazy” Jane.) Otherwise, feel free to just openly discuss your thoughts on the topic at hand.

The guy that inspired these guys:

Tim Drake’s been my favorite since I was a kid and bought Robin v1, #1 at a comic store, and then bought the above Batman Returns Robin figure (along with Catwoman from the same line) at Target in 1992.
