With ideas of a doable marriage between Barbara Gordon and Dick Grayson, Batgirl and Nightwing, in January’s Nightwing #100 from DC Comics, the conclusion of right this moment’s Nightwing #97 throws a spanner within the works, reasonably. Regardless of how #96 ended…
…because the arrival of a yellow taxi causes some consternation from the pair.
Or reasonably, who seems to be driving the taxi in query.
Full with scar to the again of the pinnacle. Quite a few years in the past within the Batman comedian books, Dick Grayson, the unique Robin and likewise the unique Nightwing, suffered a significant mind damage. It’s possible you’ll keep in mind a sure rooftop scene with Batman, the Commissioner and Nightwing. And throughout the way in which, the KGBeast, working underneath the command of Bane.
BANG. And for Dick Grayson, Robin, Nightwing, all the things modified.
He survived.
However the amnesiac Dick Grayson modified his title…
…rejecting any historical past as a superhero, at the same time as he was haunted by desires of what he as soon as was.
However he had, no less than discovered some contentment in his life. Rejecting the previous for the brand new.
Within the Nightwing Annual #2 we bought to see that bullet-to-the-brain scene once more, proven to an amnesiac Dick Grayson. As a result of by some means it was being filmed on the time. With acceptable and well-timed shut ups. Perhaps Batman has a physique cam, that is my solely clarification.
He does have some extent. I assume Bruce Wayne simply would not need that each one that Batbodycam footage to go to waste. And as for that title change…
Nevertheless later within the challenge, as Dick… sorry, Ric Grayson underwent remedy concerning his recollections, and we found that not all was because it appeared.
Nightwing #66 noticed the Courtroom Of Owls reveal all. That he by no means suffered amnesia in any respect. It was all all the way down to them.
And so we get a rewriting of Grayson’s historical past from the within out. A Batmanectomy, and one thing else inserted as an alternative. However finally Dick Grayson got here again.
Very a lot his previous self.
However that was then, that is now, and by some means Ric Grayson is… separate from Nightwing? It might’t be Clayface once more, can it? It is all the time Clayface… Nightwing #97 by Tom Taylor and Bruno Redondo is revealed right this moment.
