If DC are at all serious about making Nightwing a thing beyond comics they they new to start getting it out there. So hopefully Titans get to Nightwing rather soon.

I’d rather they take their time to make his transition meaningful.

Since it’s “Titans” show, not “Nightwing”, I dont think we will get something like mid-season time skip. They need to introduce in the first-half of the show all Titans to hook up people. Dick is the main hero, but I doubt they will focus solely on him.

He and Grant Gustin look like brothers from diffirent mothers here lol
I think Brenton Thwaites is a good casting choice though

And as they take their time they continue to just solidify Dick as Robin. Robin is already plenty established, they need to get to Nightwing already if they actually want Nightwing to be a thing.

I don’t see that as a bad thing. Establishing Dick as Robin heightens the impact of his transition. This could be his highest profile graduation. Best not to make it rushed.

Not that there is anything inherently wrong with Robin.

Is it going to be a graduation if no one gives a shit about what he's graduating into. There's nothing wrong with Robin, but beyond the comics they need to start establishing Dick as Nightwing if they actually want Nightwing to be anything beyond the comics.

“You can’t make omelette without breaking eggs first”. Idea behind Nightwing is that he is an ex-Robin. You need to show a context to the audience to make them care about Dick Grayson as a character and understand his decision to move on. Of course they can start straight with Nightwing, but without at least showing him as Robin in flashbacks, imo, half of his character will be lost. I don’t expect people to get familiar with Nightwing overnight with just one show.
