Why does nightwing wear red
Like the first "disco suit," the second one is still a little goofy to look back on now and has a lot of cheesy elements, but it's incredibly well designed, and could even work today given the right artist. We also love how the feather-looking segments form the shape that would later be made famous by his black and blue suit. Overall, it's a somewhat aged, but still pretty cool design.
When The New 52 was first announced, one of the launch titles that was slated for release was a Nightwing solo series. With this announcement, we got a look at his new rebooted costume design which took a lot of notes from his most well-known suit, but changed the blue to red and added some armored segments to the gloves and boots.
In retrospect, it wasn't a bad call, since the red ties in with his past as Robin and makes for an intimidating look for the mask's lenses. We even like the alternate version that extended the "V" into his fingers like his old costume. That said, it's hard to beat the true blue. Speaking of the "blue V" suit, the costume that Nightwing had in Batman: Under the Red Hood is one of the best animated interpretations of that suit.
The design is so well balanced with the blue insignia and the blue arm and boot pockets, both of which perfectly fit the suit right between tactical and symbolic.
We also love the short haircut that Nightwing sported in this film, as well as the little bit of blue the design has on the collar. Additionally, we think this version of the costume was one of the few times that a Nightwing design managed to make the giant domino mask work. Where the Arkham Knight Nightwing costume was a huge disappointment, the first version of Nightwing in the Arkham universe was much, much cooler looking. The biggest reason this design works so well is that it takes the most popular look of the character and made sure the best elements were made prominent.
By this we mean that the blue insignia was put front and center with a brilliant shade and texture that doesn't make it feel too separate from the armor, but still manages to make it stick out as the symbolic focus of the costume. Even though he wasn't in the main story, this version of Nightwing was way better than what came after. It's hard to describe what works so well about Young Justice 's Nightwing design, but it's not a surprise that they nailed their take on the costume, since the rest of the character designs in the series were absolutely superb.
Perhaps the one thing that sticks out about this design is that it feels like a natural progression from what came before it. This is to say that, since Young Justice was, in many ways, a spiritual successor to the likes of Batman: The Animated Series and Teen Titans , it makes sense that the design would be based on those versions of Nightwing, but with a slight amount of modernization to it that transform the suit into its own thing.
Speaking of natural progressions, one of our absolute favorite Nightwing designs of all time was the one featured in the future of the Teen Titans cartoon. The reason this makes it into our top four is because of how well it works as an evolution of Robin's original costume.
While some might not like the costume on its ow, when you look at it next to the suit that came before it and see all the elements that evolved and transferred over, we think it can be appreciated a lot more, especially with the design aspects it borrowed from Batman: The Animated Series. One of the most memorable and iconic versions of Nightwing's costume has to be the suit that appeared in Batman: The Animated Series, specifically The New Batman Adventures.
This take on an older Dick Grayson had a mullet, yes, but it works with the way the suit was interpreted as a simplified version of the popular "blue V" suit from the comics. The arm stripes are gone and the "V" has some wing notches added to it, small changes that made the design entirely new and sleek and probably much easier to animate. Knock the mullet all you want, but this suit is awesome.
What's this? We've talked nonstop about the famous "blue V" costume and we didn't even rank it number one? We'll get to that, but for now, let's take a look at what is easily the most recognizable Nightwing costume of all time.
This costume was a brilliantly simple update to the character's look that ended up lasting for decades, it was that good. It's really the first book I started collecting every month. From that point on, I read every issue that was ever published. So Nightwing is what kept me in comics and reading comics. We're really hitting the ground running, and we're starting with Dick Grayson as Nightwing. We're stating that he's the best he's ever been, simply because he was just Batman, but it's really a new start for the character.
That's a big part of what we're doing in the series. I don't think you could do a Nightwing book at this point without dealing with the fact that he was just Batman. I'm not sure I should say much more than that, except that one of the reasons he's Nightwing now is because of him just being Batman. You'll have to keep reading to find that out.
But in terms of his skills and confidence level, Nightwing has an even greater experience behind him now. So in our comic, he's become the best version of Nightwing that he's ever been. It's what has made him better. Red costume: - Pro: similar to batman beyond costume - Con: basically a modified version of the nipples movie costume But I think we all know what the best is, blue and GOLD:. I prefer the Blue but I'm thinking this is something to do with having the former Robins all in red.
I liked the blue. When they have the full range of Batfamily standing together on a cover or something, it looked better. Its obvious they are trying to inject all the former Robins into a red costume, but why? DIck has been his own man since his and Bruce's falling out, and i think his blue shows that. Red makes it seem like he's still trying to fit in Blue, purely because I prefer it as a colour. Am I the only one who thinks Dick's new costume looks like an updated version of the Batman Beyond costume?
War Killer : omg your right. I like the red better, it seems a bit more of a homage to his past. Plus I think every hero needs a revamp in style every now and then. Batman uses armor to help keep him safe in a fight.
Nightwing decided to put less armor in his suit. He noticed that the armor tended to weigh him down and prevent him from doing some of his signature moves. As a result of the lack of armor, Nightwing's suit isn't as safety conscious. He has to be a little more careful and be able to avoid an enemy's attack since his suit affords him less protection. When Bruce Wayne is presumed dead, Dick takes on the title of Batman. He complains to Alfred about some of the difficulties he is having, specifically complaining about the cape.
He finds the cape cumbersome and says it keeps getting in his way. As Robin, he was forced to use a cape. Dick intentionally got rid of the cape when became Nightwing. He disliked that he had to add the cape to his costume when he took over as Batman.
There have been a lot of jokes and questions raised by fans concerning Nightwing's original costume. His modern costume looks so sleek and stealth-like compared to the costume he used to wear. The Nightwing character was introduced in the s, and disco had been incredibly popular for about a decade before Nightwing's introduction.
Nightwing's original suit drew obvious inspiration from the disco-inspired fashions that were popular around his premiere. His costume has been updated as the times have changed. Dick has found the utility belt to be limited in a fight.
The belt can sometimes be a detriment when Dick is doing some of his moves. When Nightwing's costume includes a utility belt, it is usually a lot more lightweight than the Batman's belt. There are times he's used small pockets attached to his costume to carry things around his waist. His recent costumes seem to have completely abandoned the concept of carrying gadgets in pockets or belt.
Dick's main weapons are his escrima sticks, which he personalized to help fulfill his needs. He altered the sticks to emit an electrical charge, similar to a taser. Many versions of Nightwing have been shown carrying these electrically-charged escrima sticks.
