    Default Should Nightwing Return to the Disco Costume?

    As effectively simple as the Stelfreeze designed costume is, it's awfully played out.

    While this may seem blasphemous for some, I suggest DC ressurect George Perez's original Nightwing design. I feel it brings a certain energy and vibrancy to the Dick Grayson character which I find lacking from the Chuck Dixon era outfit.

    No. Disco is dead, and so are Disco costumes.

    I hate to repeat myself, but I did a mockup a few months back trying to combine the colors of the discowing outfit with the iconography of the B:TNA suit. I think that something along these lines might be better than a straight return to the disco suit, which is very much now dated.

    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.

    I’m okay w. the basic design being altered. As shown by Pohzee, and fan art redesigns across the internet, there’s a lot that can be done w. It, but it should never have the collar and cleavage again.

    I vote for the last costume; the black one with pale blue gloves and boots.

    I prefer classic Donna Summer myself.

    People will come back to it.
    Look at mustaches, they are trendy now, like in the old days. So disco look is bound to come back.

    Hey, disco music has already made a comeback at least once (in the earl 1990s).

    Or should he go for a "man bun"?

    Or, better yet, how about the "Deathwing" look:

    complete with pierced nipple-rings!!!

    Okay on the topic of Nightwing. Should he have a belt or keep special pockets? I like what they did with YJ What about his glider? It does also fit with the circus theme
