Synopsis for "Being Robin: Part One"

In London, a woman throws a hand grenade into a robin's nest after reciting a cryptic poem.

In Blüdhaven, the Devotees of Anarky plan their own terrorist attack, but their plot is stopped by Nightwing, The Red Hood, Red Robin, Robin, and Spoiler. They retire to Dick Grayson's apartment to discuss their shared legacy of having been Robin and what it means for their lives. As they analyze, a harried Delcaine bursts into the door and explains that he and several other villians have been sprung from Blackgate Penitentiary. His warnings are cut short when he is shot in the head by a woman perched on a water tower, who claims to be the first Robin.
