This page contains pictures and information about the heroes of The New Batman Adventures
BATMAN
Bruce Wayne's life was changed forever when his parents were murdered before his eyes. He made a vow to avenge their
deaths by taking to the streets to rid them of crime in the guise of the Batman. He is the world's greatest detective and is also known as the Dark Knight and the Caped Crusader.
NIGHTWING
Dick Grayson's parents were killed when a man tampered with a trapeze rope, and snapped while his parents were on it. Bruce Wayne took him in as a son, and in time, trained him to become his
partner, Robin. After a falling out with Bruce, Dick left Gotham to travel the world and become a better warrior. After 2 years, he returned and, realizing that he'd outgrown the mantle of Robin,
became Nightwing. He helps Batman out from time to time, but normally fights crime on his own.
BATGIRL
Barbara Gordon is the daughter of Gotham City Police Commissioner James Gordon. She first donned her Batgirl costume to help her dad when he was wrongfully imprisoned. Now, knowing Batman's true
identity, she is a true part of the bat team. She has taken up the role previously filled by Dick Grayson, as Batman's main partner.
ROBIN
Tim Drake's father was a criminal who died while in hiding from Two-Face. After learning Batman's identity, Tim was allowed to train and become the new Robin. Since he is still learning, Robin
doesn't get as much action as Batgirl, but in some cases he is a great help to Batman.
THE CREEPER
Jack Ryder was a reporter for Gotham Insider, a newsmagazine. When he was affected by one of the Joker's chemicals, he became the Creeper. The Creeper is an unpredictable force, but has fought on
the right side of crime thus far. (NOTE: The Creeper will make his first appearance on The New Batman Adventures this fall.)
ETRIGAN THE DEMON
Jason Blood was fused with Merlin's demon so that Etrigan could be a help to humanity even after the wizard was gone. By reciting an ancient verse, Jason can change form into the Demon to help fight
crime.
ALFRED
Alfred Pennyworth, a former Scotland Yard policeman, is Bruce Wayne's butler and confidant. A friend of the Wayne family, Alfred helped raise Bruce after his parents' murder. Alfred is a great help
to Batman; he makes the costumes and keeps up maintenance on the various gadgets throughout the Batcave.
COMMISSIONER GORDON
Police Commissioner James Gordon is a friend of Batman, and respects his presence in the city. He is Barbara's father, although he does not know she is Batgirl.
