Tim Drake took over the mantle of Robin from Dick Grayson in “The New Batman Adventures” after stealing his costume, and…wait, that’s a very different costume that we’ve never seen before, and it never gets explained. Where the heck did the red Robin suit come from?

This channel is amazing! Seriously, thank you. I’ve been binging all these videos the past few days, can’t believe I didn’t discover you guys sooner
Name a better duo? My dad and alcohol!
I’m upset at how cleanly you snuck the ad in… well done
TNA Wrestling taught us you never go with options 'C'
The Grayson Robin costume was better loved it
Robin is the best
Sooo, since you mentioned the red robin is so much younger then couldn't we assume that it was a long-lost suit from when dick was a kid before we saw him with batsy?
Great vid!
Tim's costume was always my fav suit
I can’t believe I never knew they brought JT into this universe
Why? New art style for the show.
The Boy Wonder's comic origin actually referred to Robin Hood, especially as depicted in William Soare's art. There you got a bird-red tunic with lincoln-green highlights. So yeah…definitely wierd to see a Robin costume with no green.
We here really talking about the Red Suite, when Barb is rocking the Blue and Yellows, which are a completely different design? Not to mention Catwoman more simplified costumes and poison Ivy's serious melanin issue. I think the different lens theory is the only way to explain it, all the other appearances were just fan service in non-canon breaking appearances.
Its the Robin suit, case closed
Personally, I like the idea that it was the outfit when Dick was younger long before the BTAS. To me, that would make sense concerning the DCAU timeline because this version of Tim Drake was actually a combination of Jason Todd and Tim Drake in the comics. It's not as weird as the changes to Joker's redesign in TNAB.
However, at the same time even though the character designers didn't put much thought into it, the other thing you could also take into consideration is that it would be a lot more easier for the animators and colorists to work with that in the it'd make things more steam lined in that regard. Ultimately in the animation industry, simplicity in design makes the difference.
Ultimately, I wouldn't exactly try to compare the spin off comics or any other timeline because there's really no point in over thinking the creative liberty that Bruce Timm and the rest of the creators made when they were making the show. (At least… from my perspective having studied animation)
Paused immediately, Wallace. And. Grommet.
Maybe the black portions of the suit is just a really really dark green.
I just assumed it was a first suit situation, later when dick is older he wears the green one
24:53 Uh
14:17 DCAU Red Hood's pronounce are : I don't give a fuсk/that I ruin continuity/cry about it lmao
Happy Pride Month Jason.
"How did Robins suit change colour between series?" Meanwhile Joker literally had a face change
Can you do a video on that second yellow batsuit that was in the adventure continue
This was always my favorite robin design. The first robin design I ever saw
I assumed maybe it was a Robin suit from a younger period on Dick’s Robin career
I feel like dick went through an emo phase and dyed the green black right before a growth spurt
Love your content on Robin
"Their heights change too, so you can even measure the Dicks!"
ahhhh, just had to sneak that one in there, huh?
Jason honestly has deserved better in television.
I mean, it could just be Dick Grayson’s suit retconned by NBA
