Dick Grayson: Robin, Nightwing, Batman, Agent of Spyral Appreciation 2019

[dietrich]

So 11 months into Ric they give him some shitty looking blue costume? What is the fucking point now? Who cares? The complete lack of any self awareness this run has had is just staggering.

Sadly I think everyone behind this sorry direction are very aware of what they are doing and how shitty it is. They are very creative. Reducing his appeal via **** characterisation while stalling till batman's isolation is over.

Didio is crafty.

[Restingvoice]

That blue costume is not that shitty.

That dirt paint mask is though

Get this one instead

Huh, does anyone know what's new about it?

[Restingvoice]

Judging by the description it's simply a new printing. It's verbatim to the first edition description.

Dick is going to be Ric into 2020. Hell its probably gonna last longer then Grayson even. It’s not going to end until someone or something like a new initiative makes the Bat office and this Nightwing team stop. Cause it’s less work to just ride it out with protected good old boy creators, then end it and try to find new creators to come up with something else. The comic division doesn’t care what other divisions do. At least when it comes to certain characters.

Honestly I still scroll through every new solicitation half expecting to read “In a dramatic twist Dick Grayson has recovered his memories as Nightwing! But how will he get out of the *insert dangerous situation* he’s gotten himself into as Ric? And how will his family react?”
Only a matter of time. Probably not as soon as some hope but probably not as long as some fear.

It always seems odd how thoroughly King and Seeley's Nightwing #30 has been erased from history with these collections.

It’s some kind of conspiracy, is it a suit it looks like a motorcycle jack kind of like what YJ dick wears

[CPSparkles]

can we pick up from where Grayson left off and have a do over please?

[Jcady59]

This is off topic(but definitely more optimistic than what Dick has going on) but if anyone on here is a toy collector there are pre orders up for the dc multiverse line Dick Grayson as Batman. This is like the only DickBats fugue as far as I know so I’m definitely getting it, just thought the figure collectors in Dicks fan base would want to know.

Yeah! Like I remember that issue being pretty problematic. And obviously it was also this carryover from the last few panels of Forever Evil and then the scrapped Dick Grayson Funeral Issue that Tynion did (that I have all the uncolored pages of somewhere). Obviously Grayson begins perfectly so it didn't really need that inciting Nightwing # 30 issue to tell its story, between the first issue of the series and the Secret Origins short. But I mean even the Divergence 6-page thing with Hal Jordan's nephew on the plane made it in ... and it's a shame to lose out particularly on Janin's work in NW#30, since it carries over, introduces Helena's new look, and has that creepy ass subway mime Fist of Cain guy.

I have the Omnibus, it's pretty extensive, to the point where the only "Agent Grayson" stuff not in it is Eternal (for a single cameo), Batman & Robin Eternal and Midnighter appearances, plus that single Detective two-parter that he barely factors into. It's pretty totally complete. I'd hate for a new edition to come out and add something I forgot about though.

I'm just waiting on that Tim Seeley Nightwing omnibus. Make it happen, DC.

Even though its a rip of we are robin, i feel like the nightwing cop idea would've been better if dick never lost his memories.

[byrd156]

He's not Nightwing, he's CW Nightwing.

I do dig that hair though.

I feel like his hair is the only indicator that time is changing and once it's grown back in this whole Ric mess will be over.

And thus it’ll be revealed that Nightwing’s Kryptonite is and always has been a buzz cut.

Makes the most sense to me. Generally when his hair goes crazy his book sales drop along with the quality, most of the time. I do enjoy some Mulletwing from time to time.
