Okay. So first off, I'm actually interested in this. This is a direction Batman can''t just run the heck in and destroy inadvertently. That's a giant plus! Biggest New 52 Problem possibly going the heck away! Good riddance to that problem!
Second,This is a major problem: Comparison! Why is it whenever Dick Grayson does something, we always compare to someone else?(I'm guilty of this ;-;) "Oh this looks like what Bucky does!" Really? Im sorry. Has Bucky Lead the Justice League twice? Is the best human acrobat in the world? Was he ever a cop? Did he lead a Teen Superhero team? Did he ever clean up a city before it blew to smithereens?(F the New 52 rectons. he still did this stuff! DC not allowed to erase 70+ years of continuity and let it go down the drain. It's still there.) "He's working for NOTSHIELD" Spyrall is no SHIELD. The closest thing to that is ARGUS! Anyone who's read Batman Inc. would know that. Dick Grayson is Dick Grayson, whether he's a super spy, cop, mobster, or a superhero!
He's not define being Nightwing. He's not like Batman where Batman and Bruce Wayne are synonyms. That's where he's different. He's been Robin, Nightwing, and Batman for gosh sakes! He's here to be a hero the best way he can be. He can do it with and without costumes and still look awesome! :P But the comparison thing is getting on my nerves. "Hes DC's Answer to Captain America". No he's been around longer then him. He's nobodies answer to anyone. He's suppose to "DC's Answer to having another awesome hero". In other words, lets stop comparing him for once and just see him being a superhero from a different approach. So what If it's similar? Who cares? Tim and Jason get his crap but no one but NW fans seem to really bat an eye over them taking his history(Just how they're written), but oh he becomes a superspy and everyone loses their minds!(XD) Stop with the motherducking comparisons to Agent Venom, Black Widow, Nick Fury, Bucky Barnes, etc! DC has spy organizations too ya know! Marvel ain't the only ones!
Three, this book ain't even out yet! Wait till it comes out before judging it's character assasssination. He was Nightwing and was undergoing that. They at least keep him truly Dick Grayson. Without his history, it's was hard! But he managed to still look good in the end(Don't tell me Nightwing 29 didn't get you teary eyed. Liar!), even with all their stupid changes!
Sheesh, his life is a bit beyond being supporting to other people! He wants to be a hero. I'm sure this isn't going to be permanent. I'm treating this as a big ole adventure he'll do for a while and eventually return to being Nightwing but bigger and better then EVA! :P Plus, he'll make new friends along the way. He has like...no friends other then Batman, Babs, Damian(dead), and Tim(Batman Inc. had them interact quite fine. I don't know where people are getting the fact they're still not bro-like. PULZ! I'll just pretend if it came truly to that.). All his old friends don't care, don't exist, or rather hang with Jason.
