Synopsis for "The Rainbow Batman"
Dick Grayson saves a girl's life during a robbery, and injures his arm in the process. He sees the crooks' faces, and begins searching for them as Robin. Meanwhile, Batman wears several different colored costumes. Eventually, Robin spots the thieves, allowing Batman to apprehend them. Afterward, Batman goes back to his old costume. He explains that he wore the special ones to draw attention to himself and away from Robin, as people might realize Robin had an injured arm like Dick Grayson’s.
