CHRISTOPHER YOST TALKS MORE ABOUT RED ROBIN'S DIRECTION!

Posted by Unknown Tuesday 15 September 2009

Not one of my favorite titles so far but with the recent revelation at the end of Red Robin #4, with Tim finding a Bat-symbol on a cave wall, hopefully things will start to pick up.

Christopher Yost has spoken with CBR's "Robot 6" blog, to talk about the recent revelation and Vicki Vales upcoming appearance and her own search for Bruce wayne, along with Marcus To coming on board as the next artist on the series and a new group hunting down Ra's al Ghul and the League of Assassins!

Tim O'Shea: Issue 4 is now out and had a fairly big reveal in the hunt for Bruce Wayne. This has been building up for four issues, did DC tell you exactly how they wanted the reveal to occur--or did they give you some creative levity to structure the reveal in your own way?

Christopher Yost: [Editor] Mike Marts and I had been talking about this from day one, and it was something that I wanted to do from the start. Tim's incredibly smart, incredibly driven... if there's evidence and clues out there, he's going to find it. And as you saw, he did. We still haven't revealed what put him on that road, of course... but I knew I wanted to tie Red Robin into the end of Grant's Final Crisis super-early on.

But to answer the question, DC has given me nothing but freedom and creative levity. It's pretty great.

O'Shea: The Leagues of Assassins call Red Robin "Tim Drake" fully knowing he had become "Tim Wayne". The whole name distinction seems to parallel Tim's own struggle for his identity as he finds himself allied with Bruce's greatest enemy (who also happens to be the grandfather of the boy who replaced him as Robin), Ra's al Ghul. Was this first arc partially a quest for Tim to find his own identity, while at the same time searching for Bruce?

Yost: Yes. The first 'arc,' as much as you can call it that, was really Tim at his most unsteady. His entire world has been turned upside down, his foundation is gone. And as amazing as Tim is, he's still human. And a teenager. He's lost everything, and he's allowed to flip out.

But he knows Bruce is alive now, to a certain extent anyway. Even though he may not be.

So while he found evidence of what happened to Bruce, the more important thing is that he's getting his foundation back, back to where he was even a year or two prior to Bruce's 'death.'
