Darla Aquista

Darla Aquista stepped onto the DC stage in 2004's Robin #125, introduced by writer Bill Willingham and artist Francisco Rodríguez de la Fuente right in the thick of the Modern Age. With just a handful of catalog appearances, she's a figure of intrigue rather than ubiquity — the kind of character who leaves a mark precisely because she moves through the world of Tim Drake, Batman, and Bruce Wayne, sharing pages with some of Gotham's most consequential players. Compact in footprint but embedded in serious company, Darla is a rewarding discovery for readers digging deep into Robin's corner of the DC universe.
