    Tim Drake

    Character » Tim Drake appears in 3333 issues.

    At the age of nine, Timothy Drake cleverly deduced the identities of Batman and Robin. Four years later, after the death of Jason Todd, Tim convinced Batman that he should be the new Robin. He would later become leader of Young Justice.

    Why do you think that he is the worst fighter of the Robins?

    She is Tim is only 17.
    As for worse fighter it depends Tim is the best when it comes to melee weapons but I think he is the worst when it comes to h2h

    Well even though I love Tim he is my favorite character I have to correct you the first fight they had Tim lost and almost died. Then when they re matched in the next book he defeated him in sheer luck

    @Nobody: 
    I agree. It sucks because I also figure he's best trained but they downplay it because he can't be smart AND strong. Only Bruce can be that smart and strong. Someone said "They made Drake the best detective to make up for his short comings compared to the other too." But really it's just he's too smart to be strong.

    " True, but unless I'm reading too much in the solicits of January, Drake will become the new Nightwing "

    Reminds me of
    No Caption Provided
    I really hope Tim doesn't become Nightwing though.
     
    Jason Todd is so weird. I think Drake is a better fighter than Todd, but then they keep putting Todd as this great fighter (like, didn't he beat or nearly beat Dick along with a bunch of titans?) ever since his coming back. Batman himself felt that Todd was under-trained, he just goes all out in his fights and I think his dip in the bring-back-to-life pool with Raz he somehow came out a better fighter. I can't remember him ever being that great when Robin if someone could show me some proof?
     
    Drake just needs something to fight for like the others. He's sort of getting that.

    i think dick is the greatest fighter out of all the robins, but tim is the smartest and is really athletic. he uses his head and strategizes his fights- thats why he always wins. that one time when jason todd snuck into titans tower and beat tim up-didn't he use a crowbar?or baseball  bat? he also had the element of surprise. and just to put out there, he is the best detective, even better than batman- batman even said so this one time to alfred.

    Granted, Dick was distracted, but Tim beat him. Tim might not be as good of a fighter as Dick, but he is still a very good one.

    Tim needs more time to grow. Which he hasn't gotten much time to honestly. New 52 didn't help.

    I agree with the op. Drake was actually training by himself before he met batman too. He's definitely the best fighter of the robins especially with his staff

    Give him a good writer and BAM. He is probably the best bo-staff fighter though.
