In my ongoing effort to become THE source for Robin news on the Internet, here’s an early concept picture of Robin from the upcoming Batman: Arkham City game. Some other website found it, and I’m borrowing it from them to show all of you. I still like the look for the game, and I’d love this color scheme. Thanks comicbookmovie.com!

I'm digging the colors.

Meanwhile, Senior Concept Artist Kan Mutfic had this to say somewhere on the Interwebs:

“We wanted to create a Robin that players would identify as a contemporary character and move away from the traditional “Boy Wonder” image that most people know. Our vision of Robin is the one of a troubled young individual that is calm and introverted at times but very dangerous and aggressive if provoked. The shaved head is inspired by cage fighters, because we thought that Robin might be doing that in his spare time to keep him on his toes. Still, we kept all the classic trademarks of Robin’s appearance, such as the red and yellow colors of his outfit, the cape and the mask.

We really hope that people will discover our Robin as one of their new favorite characters in the Batman universe. He is back and he means business.”

All of that sounds pretty badass to me! I can’t wait for Robin!
