Robin #134 – Vol. 2 – 2005 continues the gritty, emotionally charged arc that has seen Tim Drake step out from under Batman’s shadow and into his own as a capable, self-reliant crimefighter. Written by Bill Willingham with striking, expressive visuals from Damion Scott, this issue pushes Tim further into Gotham’s chaos, testing his resolve and redefining what it means to wear the Robin mantle.

In Issue #134, Tim finds himself in the thick of escalating tension across Gotham's criminal underworld. While much of the earlier issues explored his internal conflict and grief, this chapter turns the focus outward. Tim is now a force to be reckoned with — not merely reacting to events, but influencing outcomes with strategy and purpose. His pursuit of justice grows more focused, more tactical, and more personal.

Willingham’s writing continues to thread in Tim’s emotional depth without slowing the pace. His intelligence, compassion, and grit remain at the forefront, but here we see the beginnings of a colder edge forming — a necessary evolution given the threats he's facing. There’s a notable shift in tone: Tim is learning the cost of being Gotham’s protector, but he’s not backing down. He’s adapting.

Damion Scott’s signature art style remains bold and fluid, with exaggerated motion and striking contrasts that fit the street-level energy of the story perfectly. The stylised, urban aesthetic reinforces the sense of speed and risk, while also giving a unique flair to Tim’s physicality and the environments he navigates. The expressive faces and dynamic framing make the emotional weight of each scene hit harder, especially in quieter, reflective moments between the action.

Robin #134 is another strong entry in what’s become one of Tim Drake’s most formative narrative runs. It balances the high-stakes, fast-paced action of Gotham's streets with character-driven storytelling, showing us a Robin who is no longer just surviving — he's actively shaping the role into something uniquely his.
