So I’ve been reading the Nightwing One Year Later comics, starting with Nightwing: Brothers in Blood, which was weird but not as bad as I was expecting from what I’d seen of people talking about it. I really liked Roy showing up in the last issue to basically bail Dick out and then the two of them proceeding to banter for the rest of the issue, which was just a lot of fun. I also really liked Dick and Cheyenne’s relationship -- or, not liked the relationship, but liked the writing of it, in the sense of “these people are not going to work out due to circumstance and personality and just not meshing but at least one of them wants to keep trying but it’s also still casual” complicated messiness of it. it was a nice change of pace to read a relationship where this was not “the one” and the people in the relationship knew that - i mean, three comics later when dick thinks back on his past relationships, cheyenne isn’t even included.
i also thought dick and jason’s relationship was really interesting. and, related, loved seeing clancy again. the comics never really expanded on dick and jason’s relationship after their first meeting but before jason died, although there are hints of it. but jason seemed really invested in being brothers with dick, and even if dick seems callous at times (which arguably, fair - all jason’s done since he’s been back is try to kill him and his family) he’s still absolutely determined to rescue jason when he gets captured. also interesting that jason calls dick “dickebird” and “dickie” - i think the only other people i’ve seen call him that are john and mary grayson, and i feel like that parallel would make an interesting/emotional story

you know what i don’t see enough of? circus kid dick grayson critiquing the joker because he’s a bad clown. not like, bad, and also a clown. but bad at being a clown. i want to see dick grayson taking the existence of this horrible clown very personally as a matter of professional pride. he has known clowns, and you, sir, are no clown. the joker is an insult to the legacy of emmett kelly and this shall not stand.
