Put the keys into the car..

There are a lot of weird things to be found on ebay.

In whose face are you planting your mace..

Robin is completely badass.
For future reference, if you'd like to see all of these photos at once, they are all being logged under the label "the internet's ultimate achievement".

He's for every one of us..

Art by the amazing John Martz at RobotJohnny.com & colors by me.
As is usually the case, I couldn't decide which version I liked better, so here are both.

I colored and posted this for three reasons.
1) I find great joy in doing simple little coloring jobs like this.
2) I wanted to point you towards RobotJohnny.com if you weren't already aware.
3) News broke this morning that The CW has ordered a pilot for a Smallville style show about Robin before he was Robin called The Graysons.

Anyone have thoughts on any of this?

You can spend my money..

So, the question immediately becomes, "Where can I find a stripper to befriend who is willing to be Robin for Halloween?"

I'll make breakfast..

These guys live at my house now.

This place is a prison..

It's Robin, dude.

He's Batman's friend.

Near The Box Of Boom...

This was a Robin redesign I did a while back and never got around to posting.

It's only some tweaks here and there as opposed to a full fledged redesign, but I still really like it.

I've taken a couple swings at coloring it and hated them all, so if anyone with some talent would like to have a go at it, please proceed with my blessing.

Looking up and..

Justin3000 from The Drawing Board, colored up my picture of Robin all pretty like.

Also, April updated her blog.
Curt and Sean have not.

It has been adapted...

This is a Robin I did probably two weeks ago that I planned to post last week, but I didn't feel like doing so in the midst of my Mike Wieringo posting.
Mike had a great, though short, run on Robin which made me even less inclined to post this last week.
Anyway, the whole point of this picture was to try something different stylistically.
I don't know that it's any good, but I think it was somewhat of a success in that it doesn't look like my usual "style".

You hurt me!

Guess what day it is?
It's Comic-Con Photo Parade Batday!


I got to see the newly refurbished Batmobile.
Curt and I were working on a plan to steal it that never panned out.


Then I met Batman!
I cropped out the creepy Robin he had with him.
Trust me, things are better this way.


Then I met this Robin who wasn't particularly creepy at all.
He was more friendly than creepy.
Great costume too.


Then April met Catwoman!
This was about as close to seeing Catwoman walk out of the comic as I think was possible. She had the costume, the look, and the attitude all down perfectly.
This was definitely the hottest picture I took at the show.
April was a little flustered after this.
Here's another picture of that Catwoman I found elsewhere.

Yowza!

I feel great, I feel fine.

So here's a very quick, but slightly more polished version of my take on a Robin costume redesign.
Dean Trippe and I got into an "argument" over whether or not Robin has to have the color green in his costume.
I say he does.
The tunic and green in the original version of his costume (as well as the weird slippers, I suppose) are what tie him to Robin Hood. Design-wise at least.
I may be wrong, but since I was a wee-tiny chrishaley, it's been my belief that the codename/heroic identity of the original Robin was equal parts small bird and English folk-hero.
Am I alone in this belief?
So yeah, my design would bring back the red tunic, only now it would be over a green full bodysuit as opposed to a short sleeved quasi-unitard.
I completely agree with the current Robin costume that there's absolutely no reason for Robin's arms or legs to be bare.
I also kept the black gloves and the high collared black cape with yellow interior.
I didn't draw them here, but I planned on using some kind of cross between Robin's current boots and the version he wears on the animated Teen Titans.
This is officially far more than I intended or wanted to write about this little sketch.
My apologies.

He keeps on workin'..

So here's a sketch I did of my idea for a Robin costume redesign. There are all kinds of notes and such on it if you click on it to check out the bigger version.
