Red Hood

Few names in DC's Modern Age carry as much weight as Red Hood, who made their mark debuting in Teen Titans #29 in 2005 under the hands of Geoff Johns and Tony S. Daniel. Over two decades of publication — with 121 catalog appearances and two key collector issues to their name — this is a character who has proven genuine staying power across flagship titles like Detective Comics, Batman, and Nightwing. The company Red Hood keeps is rarefied indeed: Bruce Wayne, Dick Grayson, Nightwing, Barbara Gordon, and Batgirl all share the page, placing this figure squarely at the heart of Gotham's rich ensemble. For fans who love the darker, more complex corners of the DC Universe, Red Hood is absolutely worth tracking down.
