Therefore‚ one question remains‚ does Robin Hood’s legacy portray him as an outlaw or hero? Robin Hood’s stardom soared in New England during the late thirteen hundreds‚ noticeably around the aftermath of an epidemic outbreak of bubonic plague‚ better known as the Black Death.

In my opinion‚ I think he is a little bit of both.
