- Tim Drake is dead at the hands of the Magistrate. Uh, so why is he getting back up again? With the dangerous and supercharged “Lazarus Resin” coursing through the veins of the hero once known as Robin, can Tim recover enough of his fragile psyche to finish the mission and blow the sky convoy? And can Spoiler and Darcy escape the clutches of Peacekeeper 03 in time to save their friend in the process? It all comes to a head in this cataclysmic finale!
Of course, this is far from the first time that a former Robin has been resurrected with the assistance of Ra’s Al Ghul’s Lazarus Pit. The second Robin, desperate than ever before in Gotham City.
Although readers can rest assured that Tim Drake doesn’t meet his end in the grand scheme of Future State, it’s unlikely this is the last time the Bat-Family takes advantage of the Lazarus Resin. If it turns out that there aren’t many consequences on the former Robin’s recovery, it might even become second nature to resort to the Resin. Future State: Robin Eternal #2 releases on February 9, 2021.
