Gaff, when was Robin ever in a Burton Batman?

In early versions of the scripts.  Both times they tried to incorporate a Robin character before ultimately giving up (and then eventually going a more traditional route in Batman Forever).

The Batman DVD contains a storyboard (voiced by Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill) of a proposed scene of The Joker and Batman fighting in a circus, ultimately killing Dick Grayson's parents.  And like I said, in Batman Returns, they had cast Damon Wayans as a streetwise mechanic named Robin who was supposed to help Batman out.
