Robin's Oath

sun_soraya Requested Dick's Oath scene a while back, and I posted it in comments but wanted to give it its own post, too. I think it deserves it. Also, I was just rereading some other great stuff in "Untold Legends of the Batman"--really like that story! And it's related.

The Original Version, from Detective #48, 1940--Bob Kane and Jerry Robinson



From Untold Legends of the Batman #2--Story by Len Wein, Art by Jim Aparo

Shortly before Batman '89 came out, the Batman brand tie-in cereal had a mail-away offer for all three issues of "The Untold Legend of Batman".

I was like 5. I'd read maybe 2 comics in my entire life by that point and was somewhat indifferent. But I read those three and I've really not stopped since.

Such a great book, with classic art and a fun story that served to introduce myself, and I'm sure dozens others, to Batman. I wish I still had it, but I think I lost the first issue somewhere during one of my many moves :\

I LOVE this series!

LOVE.

What a great story about it!

Also, plenty of copies on ebay! That's where I got mine.

I got mine around the same time period . . . except packaged with a dramatic reading of the series, on tape. I've lost the tapes, sadly. :(
