Glad that Future State Nightwing is still Dick.
Also, wider Future State thoughts? I expected to hate it, and I don't.

I think I feel better about Future State knowing it's not supposed to be permanent like 5G was planned to be.

I only hope is not get jobbed to elevate this new Batman.

Also, wider Future State thoughts? I expected to hate it, and I don't.[/QUOTE]I think the mantle is now shared. There's someone in a different Nightwing costume operating with Raven, Starfire, Crush and Red Arrow as the Teen Titans.
It would be hilarious if that was actually Tim and he was called Blue Jay or Blue Wing.

Tim is already confirmed as Robin.
It honestly sounds awful. They are just going to use Nightwing to prop up the new Batman (probably Luke) by the sounds of it and use it to probably explain why Nightwing isn't operating as Batman instead. It's a waste of time and an easy pass, but it all was to be expected given how they view Dick as a character these days. Hopefully none of it carries over into his book post Future Slate.
As for the new costume I don't think it looks very good. I'd love a redesign of the Nightwing costume as the simple blue and black design and domino mask feels a bit too bland to me and translates poorly into live action, so I'd like to see something fresh and really different, but just adding these awkward armor pads, some weird domino mask thing that just covers a bit of the side of his head and chin, and making the bird logo look worse is a step backwards. It looks dumb. That Nightwing costume on the Teen Titans book looks a lot better with the blue and gold. No idea if that is supposed to be Dick, Damian or someone else.
Also I like that Nicola Scott is drawing Nightwing, but at the same time it kind of stuck that a good artist is being wasted on a not so good story. We just had that with Moore and the Ric stuff.
The costume looks bad tbh, a bit better in the cover by Purti but.... hmmm.... the colourist will be the deciding force, probably. Wish Dick had gotten sth sleeker like Catwoman or one that's more like the one on the Teen Titans cover. Speaking about TT I'm guessing that's Damian thanks to the teammates. Hope Red X is at least gonna be Dick.
Not that excited for the Issue. "Bruce is gone" seems now to be a stable for anything Dick appears in that is not part of his own in continuity comic, and, yeah, please, please, please, DC. Just don't try to prop up the new or shared Batman or whatever by defeating Nightwing.
Lol yeah sounds right like Snyder's pitch even

Ash Ketchum disease.
I just noticed the rib pouches on the costume. I don't think I've ever seen that before on a superhero costume. Just give him a belt if you want him to have some pouches, lol.

Yeah, something sleeker in the lines of the Catwoman costume would have been much better. Maybe something cyberpunk-ish. Oh well.

Still a general meh because it's yet another bleak future, but looking at the artists at least Bruce and Dick will look sexy doing whatever they're doing
