Notes
- This character is an adaptation of Robin Hood, a character in traditional stories. These include, but may not be limited to religious texts, myth, and/or folk lore. More information on the original can be found at Wikipedia.org.
- In the pre-Crisis Multiverse, Earth-Two, Earth-S and Earth-One each had a separate and distinct Robin Hood. On the post-Crisis New Earth, those three characters were combined into one being.
- Earth-Two: Modern Robin Hood stories are usually either set in the reign of King Richard I (1189–1199) or early in the reign of King Henry II (1133–1189), with Richard being much more common. However, the Earth-Two Robin Hood was set in Henry's reign—at least in Robin Hood's own stories in New Adventure Comics (in his guest appearance with Batman, Robin Hood was in Richard's time[1]). Robin Hood was his real name.
- Earth-One: The Earth-One Robin Hood was set in the reign of King Richard I. His real name was Robin[2], Earl of Huntingdon[3].
- Earth-S: The Earth-S Robin Hood was set in the reign of King Richard I[4] . His real name was Robert Fitzooth, Earl of Huntingdon[citation needed]. In modern times, his spirit has been summoned by Kid Eternity.[5]
