This is what happens before his death in the next issue iirc. They fight in the Batcave, Damian catches Dick's Escrima stick, throws it back, and Dick catches it.
Dick dies at the Asylum because Damian gets angry and throws the Escrima stick, thinking Dick would catch it like always, but this is during a break out so of course he's too distracted to catch it. That's when everything happens.
This looks to be adapting it very directly, which is honestly not a good thing lol. I really don't want to deal with his death scene going viral again.
It is funny how no matter what Taylor does in his Nightwing run it probably won't be as impactful or long lasting as his Nightwing death in Injustice because of how big Injustice got. I can already see the YouTube clip of it getting so many views and the comments being hilarious, haha.
Is Dick's death important to the plot? Can't they just remove since it doesn't look like anyone actually likes it.
I don't understand this need to give Nightwing artificial bulk (the shoulder guards). It's fine, but I wouldn't say it's good.
Gah, hate it. The set-up to Dick's death just shows how immature Damian is.
If they keep it overly comic accurate, I hope Clark and Dick get their two short scenes before Dick's demise.

It's the movies. Ever since they put armor on Batman 89 and subsequent movies, every time they turn an adaptation into realist 3D, they add armor to everyone, since it's the mark of realism that these street levels won't survive without armor.
I think Injustice 2 the game has it worst because they have gear system, meaning everyone's gonna have random pieces of armor mismatching depending on the stats bonus you want, though it started in the Injustice comic too with characters like Batwoman and Huntress having armored masks.
If "Robin and Batman" is still coming out in 2021 as, I think, was first announced - surely we'd need to be hearing about it soon?
In fact, talking of these 2021 launch titles teased earlier in the year - Taylor and Williamson are teasing some plans being cooked between them. The sensible answer is a Nightwing/Robin crossover of some kind, or a Supersons crossover. (Or both). But I'd forgotten that Williamson is launching the new Deathstroke title....
