This lack of development caused a decrease in popularity of the Batman comics. The only notable change was the inclusion of other characters and allies, who would become known as the Batman Family. The Dynamic Duo remained unchanged for the best part of the early Silver Age of Comics. The Dynamic Duo became such a popular crime-fighting team that a film serial called Batman and Robin was developed in 1949, based upon the primary idea of the pairing. Their partnership remained a constant element in the Batman comics throughout the entire Golden Age of comics and into the next publication era. Robin was consistently portrayed as a lighthearted punster and thanks to his presence as Batman's sidekick, the Dark Knight became a much lighter character, going on a number of adventures together. Robin's introduction into the Batman mythos caused a change in the direction of the Batman stories, as the Dark Knight himself would act as a father figure instead of the dark vigilante from the first year. Since his introduction, Robin became a permanent character of the Batman comics and his name was always included as part of the title: "Batman - with Robin, The Boy Wonder -".Įven though Robin was introduced in Detective #38, the term "Dynamic Duo" was not used until Batman #4, where the partnership was finally named. Batman was a solitary crime-fighter for the most part of his first year of existence, until Dick Grayson was introduced in Detective Comics #38 ( 1940) by Batman creators Bob Kane, Bill Finger and their frequent collaborator, Jerry Robinson. ![]()
