First Look at Robin & Batman: Jason Todd

Next month, the critically acclaimed duo of writer Jeff Lemire and artist Dustin Nguyen (Descender, Ascender, Little Monsters) reunite for a three-issue miniseries highlighting the early days of a different dynamic duo and the story of Batman’s most tortured Robin in Jason Todd. The new limited series launches on June 11th.

Batman has a new Robin, Jason Todd. Jason is a rash, impulsive and reckless kid with a troubled past, who Batman was certain could be molded into Gotham’s next protector. But can the Dark Knight save Jason Todd from the darkness within himself?
