Did you guys know that there were thoughts, talk, and even a bit of pre-pro work done for a Nightwing cartoon? Ki Hyun Ryu, who has worked on animations like The Legend of Korra, The Boondocks, and Batman: Year One, had been working on character designs. Check it:
So that was Ki Hyun Ryu's Nightwing. Here's Phil Bourassa's (lead character designer from the animated Young Justice show):
Here's The Batman's Nightwing in his two outfits (character designs for this show done by Jeff Matsuda, Jon Suzuki, Andy Chiang, Thomas Perkins, and Dave Cupczyk):
Here's the animated Teen Titan's Nightwing (character design for this show done by Job Suzuki, Glen Murakami, Derrick Wyatt, and Brianne Drouhard):
Here's Nightwing from Batman: The Brave and the Bold (character designers for this show are Lynell Forestall, James Tucker, Michael Manley, Steve Jones, and Tommy Tejeda):
Of course, then there's Nightwing from the amazing Batman: The Animated Series (character designers for this series are Bruce Timm (hopefully if you've been watching a lot of superhero media you know this name), Glen Murakami, Michael Diederish, Dan Riba, Chen-Yi Chang, Dexter Smith, Craig Kellman, Kevin Nowlan, Ronaldo Del Carmen, Michael Goguen, Paul Rudish, Mike Kim, Lynne Naylor, Debra Pugh, and Mike Mignola (crazy, huh!)):
The list of character designs for Nightwings over the years goes on and on. These are but a few. I can say I would have been really pumped for Nightwing show, but perhaps it'll get made one day.
Now I'd like to take some time to acknowledge Dick Grayson's awesomeness.
So Dick Grayson is my favorite superhero.
I hadn't had a favorite
superhero up until maybe almost a month ago (cause I don't count Ghost Rider as a hero. He's more avenger
than hero honestly...).
And I say Dick Grayson instead of Nightwing cause even in his non-hero persona, he's still a hero.
He's
a good person with pretty much unwavering morals, he's incredibly
reliable and dedicated, he's a great role model/brother/father figure.
He's pretty much the epitome of what a hero should be.
Batman molded him into a better Batman than he is. He's more than just a sidekick and protégé.
HE'S DA BEST!
Hal Jordan, Bruce, Clark, Diana, and others are great as well. I just pick Dick (lol! imagine that one a shirt!). A superhero with no 'superpowers'. Let this be a lesson to you, if you do good and the best you can, then you too can be super.
