Dick just needs to get away from Abnett. Give him to a writer who doesn't hate him.

Until Now, Dick Will transition to nightwing in Titans just like he did in the comics. DC is finally trying to put some effort into the brand a brand that Dick is the face of, why would you want to remove him from it. So he can be part of the JL, those Old assholes who have no respect for anyone they dont consider on their level, their always like one chess move from becomeing the Justice Lords, thus justifying Nightwing the New Order
Details on what's to come from Dick (leak from reddit)
spoilers:end of spoilers
-Dick/Babs being pushed as "damage control" for Bat/Cat wedding misfire.
-Dick's time as Batman in King's run will connect to Nightwing, Nightwing will double-ship for a few months
-DC Editorial unhappy with direction of Titans, want to push Dick into an Outsiders book
I wonder how much Dick Grayson "Franchise"[Robin, Titans, TT, Nightwing], WW Franchise, Harley Quinn "Franchise" make respectively for AT&T? We might find that the Big 3 isn't comprised of who we think.
Though DCSHG is a money spinner so that bumped Wondie quite a bit along with her movie.
By Dick Grayson franchise I mean an amalgamation of the character's various identities in various media

General rule of thumb for me? Never believe a rumour that tells a fandom what they already believe - so "BatCat Wedding was a huge disaster that DC are paniced and trying to fix!" and "DC hate the current Titans run that's barely an issue in!" are enough to make me disregard these.
If DC didn't like Abnett on "Titans" then, when they relaunched the book they wouldn't have kept Abnett.
DickBabs being pushed is nothing new, BatCat or not, and DickBats connecting to his own series is logical.
The last one is weird since we have a Titans show coming up. Logically they'll want to maintain some kind of connection.
They did hold off from launching a Supergirl book at the same time as the tv show, but that's because they wanted to do Rebirth.
Well,I think the problem is AT&T and Warner don't care that much about DC comics. As long as they own these characters in order to make movies,TV series,games...DC comics can do whatever it wants to do(that is,whatever Didio and Lee wanna do,and we all know Didio's opinion about Nightwing)
On the other side,the success on other media brings little synergy to comic book sales. Wonder Woman's movie was a great hit but her book sales almost got zero boost. After that I think DC just doesn't give a damn about characters' success on other media. But I agree with you,Dick deserves more respect and more care than DC puts in,even just for his popularity among comic readers. I mean the rebirth issue of Nightwing sold over 130k for God's sake.
Coming up in Batman.

Cause Dick’s the most popular Titan, so Dick was stuck there despite Abnett and his attempts to bury him. Why they allow him to continually bury Dick is what I don’t get.
