I'm excited to see what Tom Taylor does with Dick Grayson. I feel giddy to have such a huge name writing nightwing.
My favourite Nightwing suit is the Discowing. The current suit is too distracting [or maybe it's just the art. too clingy]

That statue is pretty damn impressive. But what was that price, a grand? For a friggin' comic book statue? To rich for my blood.
And yeah, I'm excited for Taylor too, Sparkles. I dunno if this is gonna turn out to be the kind of Nightwing I *want* but I expect it to be quality, and I'll take a well done Nightwing story any day of the week, even if it's not the story I would've told.
Added Nightwing back to the pull list this week, in fact. Felt good.

Amen to that. The premise of Taylors book isn't what I'd normally hope for but he is a big name which it's about time and hopefully indicates that DC means business when it comes to nightwing.
Taylor also can be relied on to tell decent stories with splashes of humour and the occasional emotional tugs. If nothing else we'll get a crowd pleasing story.
Hope the Snyder project is still in the work though not as excited about that as I am about Taylors Nightwing
Yea I can't get excited about nightwing because of the dixon bat centered direction. But I hope it's good and we enjoy it.
What you guys preferred age gap between dick and bruce? I perfer it as 13 years, dick 26 and bruce 39.

I think as people here suggested Nightpup would be a good name. No idea what Taylor will be going with, though. Could be anything. While he likes to use pets a lot in his runs I don't see him having a certain naming convention.
The escrima look interesting, Mostert already drew them that way in the death metal tie-in, but I thought that was an apocalypse thing. So we still have the old logos here, huh? Kinda makes me miss Kory's solo. I hope the writer takes inspiration from that DickKory story and the recent JL metal tie-in. They shouldn't be uncomfortable in each other's presence. (ngl that "oh" is giving me anxiety, lol)
11 years or sth between 10 to 13 years.
I didn't even notice the old logo in the title. At least this will released before issue 78.
Dick Grayson: Through the Years by Tony Daniel. Too bad this was commissioned before Grayson was a thing, so this now feel incomplete.
For Bruce to have travelled the world and become a master at everything, he'd basically need a PhD in crimefighting, so I wouldn't have him active until 26 or 27 right in his physical prime. I wouldn't have him take Dick on for a year or so, putting him at 28.
I wouldn't have Dick start as Robin until 14, but lets say Bruce takes him in and trains him for a year or two at 12-13.
That puts it at about 14 years. Certainly too little for Bruce to be a true father to Dick, but I've grown more favorably to the cool Uncle/best friend dynamic rather than the parental one.
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.
