  Tim is Batman if he never suffered so much tragedy.

  Tim Drake’s motivation has always been his big heart and his caring nature. After losing Jason, Batman needed someone to keep him grounded and Tim was the one to do that.

  Why Damien hated Tim is because everyone saw and acknowledged him as his father's one true successor. Damien knew that his own grandpa, Ra's himself called Tim Detective, the title of Batman. On the other hand, his mother revived and molded Jason into an unbeatable fighter. He then saw his father, with pride in his eyes everytime they met or worked with Dick. So in a way the mantle of Robin is far more important to Damien because each of them had been acknowledged by someone from his own family. That's how I see it

  He’s the most underrated Robin. He doesn’t get the respect he deserves.

  It sucks that Tim doesent get alot of apperances in the animated movies/shows.  I mean he was in young justice but he barely gets anything to do. I really want a movie or show that shows Tims personality in the forefront. As always great video!

  The fact that Jason even wrote “the best of us” on Tim’s grave in DCeased, just...

  Dick is my favorite (not only Robin but superhero in general), but yeah Tim is THE Robin, y&apos;know? Jason always struggled with his anger, abandonment, and trust issues. Dick always compared himself with Bruce in a very unhealthy way and grew resentful toward him. Tim was always just chillin...being himself. With the Batclan, Teen Titans, and Young Justice he&apos;s always struggling to best himself as a leader. <br>He had no dark backstory like the others, he became Robin because he simply wanted to.<br><br>Plus his brain is the most like Bruce, so...

  Dick Grayson: Some are born great.<br>Jason Todd: Some achieve greatness.<br>Tim Drake: Others have greatness thrust upon them.

  So, essentially<br><br>Dick Greyson is arguably the most similar out of the three first Robins (not including Damian, I don&apos;t actually know much about him other than his story). Dick had his family killed in a similar manner and Batman helped him take his revenge but ultimately thought him to use favour justice over it, much like him. However, the thing about Dick that separates him is that he got over revenge, and sought justice out of responsibility, which lead him a very different path than Bruce. Dick realized this and separated himself from the idea of Batman. Robin belonged by Batman&apos;s side; Nightwing didn&apos;t.<br><br><br>Jason Todd is the polar opposite. He owed nothing to justice and was driven by not vengeance but injustice, unfairness, and locked away emotions. He was driven by the pleasure of being the thrill, playing Robin like a game, as Batman mentioned in Hush. Unlike Dick or Bruce, becoming a vigilante wasn&apos;t a reaction to tragedy but an expression. It was when he started expressing too much &quot;getting his head in the game&quot; so to speak, that he made the mistakes that Batman berated him for, causing it to spiral to his death. When he came back as Red Hood, in spite of becoming a killer, it was the closest thing to Batman he has ever been. It wasn&apos;t just an expression, he was now motivated by pain and revenge rather than it simply being an expression of the injustices that he felt.<br><br><br>Tim Drake, however, did it out of responsibility. It wasn&apos;t motivated by vengeance, nor any wish to release something upon the world for pleasure. He did this out of nobility. He did it because it was right. He is arguably the most noble out of the Robins because of this. He simply wished to help and I think that speaks more than a lot about his character.

  <b>Tim:</b> &quot;I figured out who Batman AND the original Robin are, by myself, had both of my parents die (not simultaneously, mind you), and then built up my own group of friends by myself. What did you do?&quot;<br><b>Damian:</b> &quot;I was born.&quot;

  Though I like Jason Todd and Dick Grayson more, I do feel like Tim Drake works best as a partner because of his skills and how he is different from the other Robins.<br>In a way, Tim&apos;s motivations are similar to Carrie Kelley&apos;s in <i>The Dark Knight Returns.</i>
