I was reading somewhere, cannot recall where now, that Tim Drake figured out the identities of many other heroes then Batman and Robin, since donning the tights, including Captain Marvel. My questions are, when has this been revealed, was it during his series? And who does he know the identity of?

The only identities Wikpedia lists by name are Batman, Nigthwing, Robin II, Huntress, and Captain Marvel. It does say he deduced others, but it does not elaborate. I don't know when this information was revealed.

I remember in a Robin/Impulse story, Robin figured out that Impulse = Bart fairly instantly.
how'd he figure out captain marvel's?

The only reason why the we, as the readers, know is because we read the comic. If not, then we never would figure it out. Now, I know why people look at me funny when I take my glasses off. They don't know who I am!!!

That's cuz you, like Superman, vibrate your face at super-duper-speed when you take 'em off, denying anyone from ever getting a clear shot of your face...:rolleyes:

be careful what you say: John Byrne might leave the series if you keep mocking Superman like that... Oh wait... (point for anyone that understands to what I'm referring).

Robin the Third is a smart egg.
And on the Sups thing, when my buddy got Lasik I walked right by him and didn't recognize him. I imeadiately thought of Clark.

I do I do!
Byrne thinks those kinds of things are disrespectful to the character, he won't even allow you to call Superman "supes" on his board.

Well, Tim is very smart, they keep saying how he's on his way to being a better detective than Batman.
Plus, he probably has access to most of Batman's records, which he had extensive ones on all the hero's.

he figured out who wildcat was. i don't think batman shares everything, he knows robin is a clever bastard who can figure out who anyone is. everyone in the DCU sees "glasses, spitcurl, different guy". robin sees "they're the same guy! are you all idiots?"
