The Robins. Nightwing, Red Hood, Tim Drake, Damian Wayne.


Interior panel form BATMAN and ROBIN #12. Inks Mick Gray, Color John Kaliz. 
I was really glad our writer Pete Tomasi included space for this shot in the most recent issue. It's one of my favorites.

I originally intended this shot as a cover for  Batman and Robin issue #10. As you can see in my thumbnail sketch below it would have included Batman. Something about Bruce surrounded by all of his 'sons'. Seemed like a good idea.
My cover pitch for BATMAN and ROBIN #10
Ultimately the concept was rejected for the cover. And I was asked to go a different direction.

I still might do a final version of my thumbnail someday just for fun.

  2. I loved this panel! It was beautiful and pretty much perfect! The only thing that saddened me a bit was Jason's height. I thought he was supposed to be the tallest of all Robins.

    But that cover sketch! Beautiful! I can't describe all the feelings I have over this amazing cover sketch. A shame it was rejected.
