There are sidekicks out there that define their roles past their relationships to the name on the cover of the comic. Such is the case of one of the most iconic sidekicks in all of comic book history, the Boy Wonder, Robin.

First appearing in Detective Comics #38 in 1940, the character of Robin has had a role in Batman’s crusade against villainy almost since the beginning. Dick Grayson was the first Robin, and served in the role well for many years, but he eventually grew out of the short shorts to become a hero in his own right, Nightwing.

Many others have since worn the red, green, and yellow of Batman’s trusted sidekick, whether it's the dark and tragic Jason Todd, the brilliant Tim Drake, trailblazer Stephanie Brown, or awesome new kid Damian Wayne. The name Robin has come to mean much more than just Batman's protege.

With so many characters having taken up Robin’s mantle, there's a wealth of variety to choose from in the cosplay community. Whether the character is paired up with the Bat-family, taking charge of the Teen Titans, or flying solo, Robin and Nightwing offer a lot of great cosplay options. These cosplayers bring the “dynamic” to the Dynamic Duo. These are the best Robin and Nightwing cosplays.
