  The Dark Knight: Comics: Robin
The existence of Robin is an attempt by the Dark Knight to provide a balance for Batman between his dark side and his human side.
I have really gotten into reading Robin, and find it to be a refreshing approach to the crime-fighting life, as seen by a young man rather than a veteran vigilante like Batman.

To anyone reading the first volume of DC Comics' Batman Archives, which reprinted those 11 stories along with more than a dozen of the earliest "Batman & Robin" tales, it was like flipping a light switch.

 The religion of Robin (Tim Drake)
Tim Drake is the super-hero known as "Robin." He regularly operates as Batman's sidekick and he is a member of the superhero team the Teen Titans.
Given the traditional reticence with which DC Comics deals with this subject, it is conceivable that Tim Drake has a vibrant, active belief in a specific religion and is an active participant in a congregation or synagogue.
This could be because the comic book writers consider the character's religious identification to be vague or minimal, or because of the long-standing religion taboo at DC Comics which prevents major characters from being overtly identified with specific religious denominations.
