Batfam: And Their Incorrect Quotes


Batfam: Members of the Family

Many of us DC fans love the found family trope. This is a storyline that revolves around people who may not be related by blood but still feel like a family. In the DC Universe, we have a few of those, but the most beloved will always be Batman and his family: the Batfam. Today, we will first mention some members of the Batfam to you and later on give you some incorrect quotes (quotes taken from another show, movie, or book, where the names of the characters have been replaced by the Batfam member names).

Bruce Wayne: His DC Family

The main member of the Batman Family is (of course) Batman himself, Bruce Wayne. He is the one who started it all; without him, most members of the family wouldn’t have even met one another. While he might not always be the best at keeping this family safe, he is the head of this family.

The Robins of the Batfam

The most known members of DCs Batfam are most likely the Robins. They are the different young men (and sometimes women) who have taken on the mantle of Robin. Usually, they are kids who have lost their parents and are taken in by Bruce, where they realise he is not just a rich man but also a superhero.

Dick Grayson in the Batfam: First Robin

The very first sidekick of Batman in the DC universe, and thus the very first Robin, was Dick Grayson. He was (and still is) the most known; he really set the name for Robin. However, he later on became Nightwing when he grew out of his Robin phase. Fun fact: at one point, he even briefly took on the name of Batman himself.

Jason Todd as Robin

After Dick left as Robin, Jason Todd took over from him. By fans, he was not well received, which ultimately led to Jason’s passing away (at the hands of the Joker). Later, he was resurrected and came back as Red Hood, an anti-hero who started winning over the hearts of the fans again.

Third Robin: Tim Drake

When Jason wasn’t there anymore to be Robin, Tim Drake took over. He was actually quite a fan of the other Robins (just like us), which led to him wanting to be Robin. He more or less decided to be it instead of getting picked by Batman himself. It all worked out, though - and later on, Tim continued to fight crime under the name of Red Robin.

Other Robins

Next to Dick, Jason, and Tim, there have been a few other Robins. These include Stephanie Brown (the fourth Robin and the first female Robin) and Damian Wayne (the fifth Robin and the only biological son of Bruce Wayne). In another universe, Bruce Wayne also takes on the mantel as Robin for a little while - before becoming Batman. In alternate universes, we also see Lance Burner, Carrie Kelley, and different versions of the Robins mentioned above.

Other DC Batfam Members

There are many other members of the Batfam, too, in the DC universe - not just Batman and his Robins. For example, Alfred Pennyworth (Batman’s butler) is an important member. Many fans see him as the one who actually takes care of the whole family. Then there are also some animals - such as the Bat-Cow (one of our favourites) or Ace the Bat-Hound. But mostly, members such as Batgirl, Batwoman, Catwoman, and Huntress; all amazing DC superheroes in their own right.
