    Totally recommend Percy's first issue! The art alone is enough for me to buy it (90's comic comeback). It looks to be a mega-arc. Something Dick hasn't had since Grayson. I'm also an oldie so I relate with Dick in this issue.

    I thought it was good too and an intriguing start. It’s something that hasn’t been done to death with the character yet if at all. I think Percy understands the character.

Sometimes it's good to be an old comics geek. Dr Wertham taught me a word I've never seen before or since: "ephebic."

    I've always wanted to read that. And watch.....crap, what was it called....Refer Madness! Gotta love 1950's era propaganda.

    And Percy's first issue (the first single issue of Nightwing I've picked up in ages, because I didn't want to wait until the trade) was solid. Dialogue was decent, the plot is interesting, and Dick doesn't come off as being a total idiot even though he's dealing with something outside his wheelhouse. It's just one issue, but I feel like Percy had better structure, dialogue, and pacing than he does in Arrow (and I've generally enjoyed that book, flaws and all).

    Also picked up the Nightwing: The New Order trade (finally!). Very entertaining, and a great Elseworlds tale. I meant to only read the first few pages last night but ended up reading the whole thing instead of going to bed at a reasonable time like I should've. Good art, and a fascinating spin on Dick that stayed true to character while throwing him into a really messed up situation. It was just as good as I had heard it was.

    Robin's had two movies now... they just sucked :P

    Not counting the 60's movie which was awesome.


    Some characters have had zero movie presence... but Robin isn't one of them

    Saw the new trailer and have to say this is my favourite DC movie trailer to date. Such fun. I hope this movie does very well.

    Yup, it's cool.

    Anyway I'm guessing the finale episode of the upcoming Titans series will be named Nightwing, since Dick is still Robin. It would be awesome to see him become Nightwing.

    In the previous issue he had issues setting up his TV connections and didn’t know what Netflix and Chill meant, so it’s not out of the blue for this issue.

    Nvm looked it up myself. Googled it and it says average semi tire weighs between 100-110 lbs on average. But the michelin website has it going as high as 125.

    But just going on the low end average 110 x 6 + the weight of the bar which is about 45lbs =705 lbs. According to wikipedia the highest weight ever done on a clean and jerk is 588 lbs so Dick just broke the world record by 119 lbs. Not bad.

    Robin had his own movie Dick Grayson?

    I changed my mind I like Dick as a personal trainers, its flexible on his time so he will never be fired and it wont clash with Nighting

    Right, but it doesn't have to exist. like, if thats all that matters for the job, have him live off bruces money, or the insurance settlement from Haly's seriously, this job is pointless.
