Yeah, I would 5000x more want to see Dick as a vagabond traveling the world and doing odd jobs to make ends meet than see him as a cop or bartender again. Pure "itchy feet" Dick could be workable.
I say private investigator would fit Dick. He can travel to solve the cases and go undercover for odd jobs. Use Babs or other things to get his info.

It'd be interesting seeing him operate without the resources too. Like when he moved to Chicago and couldn't even repair his costume.
It's not the direction I'd want to take him (as you know) but it could be pretty interesting, and far more true to his character than holding down some mundane job that any smuck could do.
I mean he doesn't want to live off Bruce. He wants to make his own money. If we have to give him money has a Superman only copyrights would work. With him not living off resources. Why not have him build them himself? That would be interesting. He looks around for tech parts or learns to sew.
Yeah, I still think the old pitch thread turned out my favorite (hypothetical) Nightwing status ever.
Also, here is another stab at incorporating the yellow into his costume I found on reddit:

I’d try to make it more a bird so it’s not so close to Black Lightning but honestly it looks really great. Adds a nice variety of color to his suit.
As long as dick is single him having a career is not importantly can get by make money
I mean if he were to make money has Nightwing could that work? Somewhat of a public hero but not really? Could he do that without endangering?

Red Hood's making money as a mercenary with Arsenal if that's what you mean, but they're Outlaws. Dick's more of a straight superhero that won't sell his service for money.
[QUOTE=WonderNight;4962296]Yea DC needs to to look at dick and ask what fits nightwing as a character and concept. Not how to make him fit under batman.[/QUOTE]
the only way for that happen would be to not be grayson/nightwing
he would have to not be

Maybe a P.I work. He sets his own hours and travel. Not only that but maybe for this to work he was a cop at one point but maybe he had to quit or was fired. He still has good connections. It's just people keep saying they want him to have a job yet nothing works. I mean I thought maybe Dick has Nightwing could make money from copyrights
Can anyone think of guidelines that you think DC should have?
[QUOTE=AmiMizuno;4965871]I mean if he were to make money has Nightwing could that work? Somewhat of a public hero but not really? Could he do that without endangering?[/QUOTE]Well sense this is supposed to be a shared universe, what if dick became zatanna's manager?
He could travel around the world make deals, setting up shows and events as her PR.manager. This would allow dick to be more DCU connected and travel the world and remain in the entertainment industry and spotlight that he was born to be apart of.
Dick could even get some of that fame spotlight as the person that introduces zatanna on stage and continue his family legacy as apart of the live entertainment industry.
5 issue tie-in? Ridiculous. Not that I was gonna be reading anyway but who would?
Also Joker Warzone lol.
