We are Robin Reading Order

This reading order is designed to give a timeline of major storylines featuring the We are Robin movement throughout DC Comics. It does not encompass every one of their appearances, but is a timeline of the major ones and the stories that affect them.

The continuity details relating to each specific storyline are explained in the “Review” of each storyline. Every “Review” link will provide a detailed continuity breakdown of that story and will explain any reference the story makes to other aspects of the DC Universe. All of this can be found under the “Continuity” section of each link.

New 52

In the aftermath of Batman: Endgame (Review), a new vigilante group rose up to help protect Gotham in Batman’s absence. This new group was made up of young people taking on the “Robin” identity and fighting crime in the streets.

Their adventures were primarily confined to the We are Robin series but extended to other comics during the Robin War (Reading Order) event. At some point after the We are Robin series was canceled, the group split up and its members mostly went back to living normal lives, with Duke Thomas (Reading Order) being a notable exception.
