Was Robin originally female?

Question

I have been looking but I cant seem to find any information on it. Was the original Robin from the Batman series a girl?

Answer 1

No, not at all. The original Robin was d**k Grayson, followed by Jason Todd, and then Tim Drake. In 1986, there was a 4 issue series called The Dark Knight Returns which is set decades in the future when Batman is an old man, and there is a female robin named Carrie Kelly. A few years ago, Tim Drake briefly quit, and a girl named Stephanie Brown took over as Robin for a few issues before she was killed and Tim Drake came back (Stephanie later turned up alive, though).

You can read about all the Robins on the wikipedia article

No, the first Robin was d**k Grayson. The second was Jason Todd, the third Tim Drake, and then the fourth, Stephanie Brown, was the only girl, but she died and Tim Drake came back as Robin.

Answer 6

No. You might be thinking of the Dark Knight. In it Robin is a female (Carrie Kelly) but that takes place in the future.
