see deal Batman: Arkham City - Game of the Year Edition - PlayStation 3 $9.99 on Gamestop

Speaking on the Arkham City community forums , Senior Concept Artist Kan Mutfic has given the "final word" on the team's vision for Robin. Here's what he had to say:

"We wanted to create a Robin that players would identify as a contemporary character and move away from the traditional "Boy Wonder" image that most people know. Our vision of Robin is the one of a troubled young individual that is calm and introverted at times but very dangerous and aggressive if provoked. The shaved head is inspired by cage fighters, because we thought that Robin might be doing that in his spare time to keep him on his toes. Still, we kept all the classic trademarks of Robin's appearance, such as the red and yellow colors of his outfit, the cape and the mask.We really hope that people will discover our Robin as one of their new favorite characters in the Batman universe. He is back and he means business."Without further delay, here's the latest piece of concept art of Robin:Not exactly the image we're used to seeing of Robin, but par for the course considering Rocksteady's take on other notable Batman characters.
