    All i remember is a "we will talk later" from bruce and absolutely nothing else. Nightwing was back with the fam for the next event if i remember correctly. Tho its been a while since i read the whole thing.

    Tho if you say so im probably misremembering.

    Dick's horrible New 52 Robin costume made another appearance in the recent Batman issue. I feel obligated to point it out whenever it rears its ugly head, lol.

    It looks so weird seeing it while a Wally is in his classic Kid Flash costume. The two don't mesh well.

    Yeah it looks awful but the scene was awesome.

    They don’t talk later, Dick quits and leave his Nightwing suit. Then goes into self imposed exile. We got like two years of ramifications from what Tarantula did.

    I feel like the suit is just another example of them not really caring. They payed for the design and gave it the ok, and now its just what they have regardless if readers care for it or not.

    It messes with DC's Iconography. It's such an ugly design, if they weren't going the pixie boots they had the chance to reinvent what the new Iconic Robin suit would be. And we get this in place of it.

    What’s so bad about the new 52 Robin suit? Is it really that different from the original one beside the pants?

    The mask, the colors, the color balance, no collar on the costume, etc.

    On a semi-related note, my brother and I spent a day the other day "Dicking" around with some Robin costumes that felt modern but incorporated aspects of Dick's various past costumes. We toyed with things like long red sleeves and Earth One belt, a more golden-age Robin Hood inspired look, some aspects from the animated Judas Contract movie, and other elements from other Robin costumes.

    Ironically, it made me come to the realization that Damian's original Robin costume is pretty much what I was picturing as a modern DickRobin suit. It has a yellow cape, a hood (like Robin Hood), it keeps the tunic, green gloves and boots, but has sleeving along the legs and arms.

    Edit: Obviously this is a suit for when Dick is further along as Robin, sometime like age 16~Hudson U.

    It's the Dynamic Duo! Batman and Robin!... and Red Robin and Red Hood and Nightwing and Batwoman and Batgirl and Orphan and Spoiler and Bluebird and Lark and Gotham Girl and Talon and Batwing and Huntress and Azreal and Flamebird and Batcow?

    Since when could just anybody do what we trained to do? It makes it all dumb instead of special. Like it doesn't matter anymore.

    The fact that it’s “unfinished version of Robin’s suit” and in continuity Batman officially made his sidekick run around in it for all those years makes it even less appealing.

    Anyone else impressed how successful Dick Grayson becomes in the future? Unlike rest of the Bat family, he really goes beyond the mask. An orphaned circus boy becoming a mayor or the head of a nationwide police force is unbelievable. Really shows that Dick Grayson is what makes Nightwing, not the other way around. Very inspirational.

    Also, looks like Ric will continue for 2019. Sales are good. Jurgens will probably try to connect Ric with Batman Beyond (He is writing both). My advise to my fellow fans is patience.

    It’s really not that high of a bar.

    Most of the bat family’s future is either bad (Tim), rarely disused (Jason) or about what you expect (Damian)

    The only people ever really given positive potential futures are Babs or Dick.

    Tim's future is bad? He's got Bendis as his champion. Dick, Jason, and Damian have no big-name protectors. Tim has the best future of all of them with the biggest writer in comics as his fanboy.
