Damian Wayne was the genetically engineered son of Bruce Wayne and Talia al Ghul and the successor to the name Robin in the DC Universe.
Origin
Created as a son/clone of Bruce Wayne and Talia al Ghul, Damian was trained to be a deadly assassin until Batman taught him a better was and he dedicated himself to fighting evil as the new Robin.
Origin
Damian Wayne was born to the superhero Batman (secretly billionaire Bruce Wayne) and eco-terrorist Talia al Ghul. Made to take command of the League of assasins, he was raised by Talia and the league. He was trained to fight and kill since he came out of the aritificial womb, he was a skilled martial artist before teenagehood and his mom dueled him every single birthday of his life until he beat her then she was ready to meet his dad. By the age of ten he is a master assasin, scuba diver, spy, warrior and martial artist also by that age his mother leaves him in the Batman's custody so he gets distracted in his job of crimefighting. He was spoiled, precocious,selfish and violent. Inside the Batcave he sucker punches and battles Tim Drake (the current robin) to replace him as Batman's sidekick. Batman grounded him but he escaped wearing a costume of robin from Tim and gear from the league, he fights the villan Spook and decapitates him. Even though he is a muderer and misguided he wants to help his father in the never ending war against crime. After he familiarizes with all the ex-robins, all of them argue who was or is the best robin he ends up fighting all of them to prove hes the best (when fighting Jason Todd (Red Hood) he steals his motorcycle and helmet as a trophy) but he doesn't fight Nightwing who he believes to be the best robin.
