Finally Nightwing 124 spoilers

Started by marvelprince2 pages

Actually I think these last few issues served their editorial purpose. Remember Dick was slated to die in IC but Didio said he was convinced to keep NW around, but that if NW stayed around he'd have to be changed. Well from the beginning of this arc we have seen an incompetent Nightwing, one who's only motivator seems to be the lil Dick in his pants. Later we have Roy showing up and telling him that he need to be "more dark knight, less man of steel". I think this means Dick is gonna become more of a hard-ass, we'll probably get a few scenes of him training intensely, maybe a few of him going too far and beating someone too badly. He's probably also gonna be emotionally withdrawn and may even distance himself from women (I know thats pretty hard to believe). Basically we're gonna see him as a Batman pre-crisis. I mean, if you look at him in Outsiders thats basically how he is right now but I'm pretty sure the events in Outsiders will happen after his change. Just some of my predictions on the topic

What's all this about Jason Todd becoming a monster!?

The last thing Dick needs, is to be Batman lite. Thats the last thing.
Nightwing was supposed to be his own thing.

Dick, is the optimist in Superman, with the realist in Batman.
He sees the world for what it is, but still sees something worth saving.

Without the boyscout naivety of Superman, and the dismal bleakness of Batman.

Ain't that the Truth....I've been reading this horrid Jones arc since it started and like an idoit I keep buyin the next issue, because i think its gonna get better, well with Wolfman atleast I KNOW its gonna get better...Atleast Outsiders shows Nightwing to be the superhero he is capable of being, although in the past few arcs he has been very Batman like, but that beats the Jones "Lets make Nightwing look like the biggest deuchebag/manwhore" arc

Nightwing should never be like Batman. Ever.

I think the Prodigy story line did a great job of showing that.
🙂

I agree to an extent....Nightwing was perfect the way Dixon wrote him....but I still think there should be a batman quality in him, I'm not sayin make him in Batman Junior, I'm just saying give the man who trained him some reconigtion in a very very very subtle way.

Well, there is. For example, Catwoman stated that he moves just like his mentor, only faster. But Dick is his own character really, too headstrong to take after Bruce. That place goes to Tim.

Hey I agree, but from how he actually threatened Superman with kryptonite in the Outsiders and the discussion between him and Roy thats the way I think they're gonna play him

Nightwings cool. 😮‍💨

Nightwing is one of the gems of the DC universe. He's awesome.
