Tim Seeley, Tom King And Mikel Janin Turn Nightwing Into Grayson
We told you they wouldn't kill off Nightwing.
Then they cancelled his series.
But we told you he would return as Grayson.
And now DC Comics have told USA Today.
Batman's former sidekick embarks on a new life as an undercover superspy in the comic book Grayson, an action-adventure series premiering July 2 fromDC Comics. It's written by Tim Seeley (Revival) and Tom King, a former CIA counterterrorism operations officer.
They also spoil the ending of Forever Evil, though much of that is to do with the fact that the final issue of very late.
The current Nightwing series ends with Issue 30, due May 28. In the current Forever Evil event series, Dick Grayson has been outed in a villain-infested landscape as Nightwing and captured by the Crime Syndicate of Earth 3. (He's also seemingly murdered, but it doesn't take.)
Batman, though, wants him to transition to a different heroic life for the greater good — it's "a hard sell," Seeley says — and tells him why he needs his former partner to stay dead, not only to the world at large but to Batgirl, Alfred Pennyworth and the rest of the "Bat-family."
Hence the mourning Dick moments from recent issues of Batgirl. Which, originally, would lso have been published after the final issue of Forever Evil. And it's all about Batman Inc.
Grayson's new employer is the international spy agency Spyral, an organization created by writer Grant Morrison for his Batman, Incorporated series. King sees it as representative of today's intelligence community: They're the people who stop bad guys from doing bad things, yet to do that, they employ questionable tactics such as mind erosion.
It's Identity Crisis all over again!
Look for news on the return of Damian Wayne later.
