A Flaw In Batman: Nightwing

Whilst watching 'Batman Under: The Red Hood' I realised something, it just clicked, in 'Batman: Nightwing' the 2012 short film I reviewed earlier this week, we see both Dick Grayson/ Nightwing, who was the original Robin, and Jason Todd, who was the second Robin, but went on to become The Red Hood. Yet Nightwing clearly says that Batman and ROBIN are off doing more important things. Who is the Robin that he speaks of? As far as I'm aware there was only two Robins. I'm excluding John Blake, because no one is sure which superhero he may become, we know his name is Robin, but that won't necessarily be his superhero name, he would most likely go by either Batman or Nightwing. Maybe something new completely, only time will tell.

Is it just a script flaw? Something they overlooked? Or is my knowledge of Batman not as extensive as I thought. If anyone can shine a light on this matter than comment below.

Whilst your at it you might as well watch the short film I'm talking about:

  3. Great scot your right! How the fuck did I forget about him! He was the Robin In 'Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker' when the Joker had experimented on him, eventually resurrecting himself through Tim! I must bow my head in shame.
