As the first Robin, Dick Grayson was the most famous sidekick in comic book history. As he ventured forth on his own, he formed the Teen Titans and became their leader. When the boy became a man, he became the independent hero known as Nightwing.
Love that they don't just push all the things that happened to the side, it was my biggest fear even when Grayson started and even with Seeley being the new writer I had my worries.
Its going to be hard to go back to the black and blue, I liked the red and black costume or at least was used to it but I liked that it had a bigger symbol that wasn't just a blue line
Seeley's the man. A globetrotting Nightwing was one thing a plethora of fans were clamoring for. Also great that he gets what makes Dick so special. He's a performer at heart. Was one of the reasons why being a spy made sense for him. Super ecstatic they didn't shelve all the great development he amassed in Grayson. Will be interesting to see what new wrinkles in his game he picks up down the road on his journey to surpass Batman.
I think I enjoy Dick Grayson/Nightwing more than any other DC character including Bats and Supes. Loving Seeley's work with Grayson so far so I'll definitely follow over to the new title. Not sure I can say the same for the other DC Rebirth titles though...
They keep talking about Bludhaven in Arrow, would love to see Nightwing make his way there. (Enough hints that Batman has existed for a while without bringing in Gotham itself.)
I was just wondering where Marcus To has been the other day. Loved his work on Red Robin. Javier Fernandez did some good stuff on Magneto. And Yanick Paquette doing the Rebirth one-shot makes this book worth picking up for the art alone.
I'm looking forward to this book the most because not only is he back in blue (red is Renagade) I feel that Grayson was the book that we finally saw parts of the pre-52 Dick. In my opinion Sick Grayson is a game changer much like Batman and Supes, there are a handful of characters that when they show up in a fight or event they make a big differance. Hoping with this new title "Better than Batman" it shows that while Batman is the better crimefighter Nightwing is the better Hero.
