I have occasionally mentioned how in the Post-Crisis DC Universe, Dick Grayson got the idea of the Nightwing name from Superman. Superman told him about a Kryponian legend. I was wondering if that would be used in NIGHTWING #0, but it wasn't. (There wasn't anything on Dick going from Robin to Nightwing.)

So, here are the pages from NIGHTWING #102 where Dick visits Metropolis after Batman fires him as Robin.

( Batman 1966 reference as well.> <a href= )

As promised, this is the second mega-posting to celebrate the end of "Dude(s) in Distress Week", dealing with published images... (This is sort of a "Greatest Hits", as much of it has been posted before)

The history of the "Dude in Distress" in graphical literature is a long and noble one... there are probably medieval woodcuts showing that sort of thing, but as that slightly predates most of the usual area of scans_daily, we'll skip to something vaguely more recent... well, relatively speaking.

LOTS of scans under the cut, but I've used smallish thumbnails so as not to kill your broadband completely! Just stun it slightly...

( Over a century of Dudes in Distress )

Taking over any title is never going to be easy.

Taking over a Dwayne McDuffie title, so soon after we lost him, that has to be a tough job,

I've started re-reading the Nightwing series recently and this scene from early in Chuck Dixon's inaugural run was interesting/cute enough that I wanted to share. Also cause of the earlier post about the current sibling relationship with Damien and Tim, I thought this would be a good time to do it.

( 3 of 22 pages after the cut )

While Bruce Wayne is running around on Pluto in the future, the 853rd century's Batman is knocking about present day Gotham City in his place.

Nightwing runs into the future Batman... whose immediate reaction is to attack him.

Also, would anyone be willing to do the RESURRECTION MAN #1,000,000 post? I only own the issue as part of the DC ONE MILLION trade, and pages from trades are a monster to scan.

A repost from two S_D incarnations ago.... Discussion of the no-kill rule here reminded me of this in Robin 140 by Bill Willingham and Scott McDaniel

We start with a cover which just screams "WRONG!" on every level to me. Robin with a rifle, surrounded by hand grenades and hand guns just seems deeply disturbing...

( The JLA as weenies, military philosophy and topless Robin kicking butt! )

Long time passes. Spider-man goes cosmic, gets the recurring menace of Venom, and Mary Jane even meets Matt's crazy ex Typhoid Mary. He has many guest appearances.

Daredevil returns from his epic journey and ends Nocenti's epic run. He gets back together with Foggy Nelson and in a climactic battle, tricks Hydra into picking a fight with the Kingpin and puts Typhoid Mary into an insane asylum. Matt uses the memory of Vanessa Fisk to push Kingpin over the edge mentally. ( Read more... )

To the earlier request by Benicio127, here are some pages to BATMAN #600, written by Ed Brubaker and drawn by Scott McDaniel. It ended the BRUCE WAYNE: MURDERER? storyline and started the BRUCE WAYNE: FUGITIVE storyline. It also (maybe) marks the first time Batman says "There is no Bruce Wayne" out loud.

( That's one fragile memorial case. )

In a comment further down the page,

halialkers said: "The World War II era was not some era of moral perfection and justice where wars were fought with a purity unrivaled by all other eras."
This has been seen as a problem with Captain America, especially in issues of DAREDEVIL of all places. And an issue of PUNISHER WAR JOURNAL.

( Time to shake the hornets' nest! )

Writer: Tony Bedard
Artist: Scott McDaniel

So this is both the last issue and Mother of Champions's issue, which means that Bedard somehow has to write around, if he chooses, the whole baby factory issue. (To be fair, that's not really his fault - he inherits the concept from Morrison.)

( But then he...doesn't. )

Oh, and in case you missed it, the last page does in fact have the entire Great Ten team as fetuses.

Newsarama has the preview for The Great Ten #8: The Shaolin Robot up here

Fu Xi, the Steve Jobs of the ancient Chinese, or possibly the Bill Gates?

The seventh issue of The Great Ten, appropriately enough, focuses on the entity known as Seven Deadly Brothers. If Ghost Fox Killer is Hong Kong's resident nighttime vigilante, he's its daytime champion.

( Adds up to four pages... )
