Awesome moments in the Robin series.

Robin miniseries

  • From the very first miniseries: Tim Drake vs King Snake. King Snake has been portrayed as a martial artist near on par with Lady Shiva, and he's set up a fight in the pitch darkness, and has already beaten a man to death in the room and left him there as a taunt. Tim evades the gigantic King Snake and hides. Snake tells Tim that if he surrenders, he'll kill him quickly. Snake hears a whistling sound from Tim's Bo staff, and catches it so he can counter strike. But its a feint; Tim swings down from the opposite side and kicks Snake through a window. King Snake never quite gets over the loss, and Tim gets his first major victory.
    • Even better, the feint with the whistling Bo staff was used earlier during Tim's training with Lady Shiva, setting up the attack perfectly.

Robin (1993)

  • Tim defeating Lady Shiva in their fight before it even began by poisoning her chocolates. He admits that it only really worked because he believed her heart rate would increase a certain amount when directly fighting him.
