The Amazing Graysons: Baby Nightwing?

October 1, 2008 by The Main Event

In honor of our Inquisition:

It looks like the CW doesn’t want to leave a void when comic book inspired Smallville finally ends…

But, really though, I wonder how interesting a bunch of circus performer will be?  Surely we won’t have Dick flying around a trapeze for 8 whole seasons?  The actor would age past his origin as Robin…

    I read an article about this in Variety. While it didn’t give concept/plot specifics, it did mention an “original take” so I don’t think we’ll see much in the way of circus performances.

    Hopefully they cast Chris O’Donnell!

    Doesn’t sound exciting…

    I think I’m speaking for the collective nerd unconscious when I say, “Meh…”…

    They just need to make it one-tenth as awesome as “Grayson” and we’ll be all set:

    Also, as I said to The Main Event, this idea is a lot more interesting than doing the “Young Bruce Wayne Chronicles.”

    My first thought was “why?” I’m a fan of Robin and Nightwing, but I really just don’t see the upside and where the entertainment will come from. With Smallville, it was knowing that Clark was Superman and would eventually be able to do all these things and fight all these people. However, Dick Grayson? I just don’t know how they’ll make it interesting.

    That said, I’ll tune in for the first couple episodes just to see what’s what, but I’m not holding my breath.
