To be fair those ages were set when the comic book culture was a lot more light hearted. They did get aged up to ~approx 16 when becoming Robin when they rebooted the franchise to address this. Still not ok, but they did try to address it without alienating the older fans.
Wasn’t TAS Robin in college?
Yeah, but as soon as Bruce found a suitable replacement he got Nightwing’d.
Or just the clown does his job
Jason came back angry and murdery
I remember reading a comic once where Gordon loses his shit on Batman for recruiting children to fight alongside him. May have been after Jason Todd got killed or when Barbara got crippled
There was a time Wally West ripped into him when the League tried to talk to Wally about his kids superheroing. “I’m getting lectures in child safety from a man who’s gone through four Robins?!”
The last Batman movie I saw was probably in the Dark Knight series and I’m pretty sure there was no Robin. When was Robin last in a big movie? Has he come back since then?
Joseph Gordon-Levitt was setup to be Robin in the final entry of that series.
