The Story: "Robin Undercover!"

Robin's successfully infiltrated the gang of kids terrorizing Gotham. In order to gather intel, he'll need to get even closer and prove his worth to the person in charge of this group. But will Robin have to break Batman's code in order to do it?

Why This Series Matters

Mark Waid and Chris Samnee's first Batman & Robin: Year One run earned multiple Eisner Award nominations, and Dynamic Duos continues that same creative team's exploration of Bruce Wayne and Dick Grayson's early partnership, this time weaving in Catwoman and a mysterious new character who may become her sidekick.

Common Questions

Do I need to read issue #1 first? Yes — this picks up directly from the street-kid gang storyline introduced in Batman and Robin: Year One – Dynamic Duos #1.

Do I need to have read the original Batman & Robin: Year One series? It's not required, but it deepens the emotional throughline between Bruce and Dick that this sequel series builds on.
