I hope this means that Nightwing will appear more in other books too. So Does this mean Shawn will appear in Nightwing more too. I did love her character.
On off topic. You guys think we will get Nightwing animated film where he doesn't get his butt beaten? I hope Dc finally allows us a solo animated movie
Yeah, I think this is just Seeley using his older characters instead of creating new ones.
Is Nightwing 78 going to third printing? Did we know that?

Yeah. Old Man Logan didn't have a tie-in, and neither did his Extraordinary X-Men team, so Taylor took the opportunity to have the alternate universe Wolverine meet Laura and the newly introduced Gabby. In fact, none of the other X books were involved in Civil War II due to it being immediately before Inhumans vs X-Men, so I think Taylor chose to do a tie-in.

I created a thread about Dick Grayson/Nightwing and Koriand'r/Starfire. It is to acknowledge and honor their iconic and popular relationship.
I created a fan page about Peter Parker/Spider-Man and Mary Jane Watson. This page is for all the Spider-Marriage fans.
I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s the case here too.
An event tie in doesn’t inherently have to be a bad thing, especially when a writer has time to plan for it ahead of time so they can figure out how to use it to benefit whatever story they plan on telling. So I’m choosing to believe that’s the case here until given reason to believe otherwise.

Remember when dick had a brother lol
Anyway is this dick Grayson back into play with the current Batman being Keaton?
Most likely. The only way I can see an adaptation using the Kryptonian origin for the name is if the show was actively trying to expand the IP beyond the usual Gotham influences. Like, a straight adaptation of Judas, when Dick first put on the Nightwing suit, might use the Kryptonian origin just because it fits neatly with the other aliens, demons, etc., that populated the NTT.
But no, I don't think the real origins of the Nightwing name will find its way into any adaptation. It should; it's a hell of a way to showcase Dick's wide-ranging relationships across the DCU. But I doubt it'll ever happen.
I think it's less about the editors allowing more freedom and more about Taylor being a big enough name to have more free reign in his work.
And AT&T, I'd assume, would do their due diligence once they got control of the DC catalog and examined sales, larger media profiles, interviewed DC managers and employees, and tried to get a line on how viable DC's properties are/can be. It's possible that AT&T saw more potential in Nightwing that Didio did and told DC to act accordingly, but I think it's likely that this newfound freedom is primarily due to Taylor being a proven success with Injustice and DCeased.
