I've been posting a series of variations on how Dick transitioned from Robin to Nightwing.

The original: -Titans Part and Bruce and Jason part

The post-Crisis revamp (With added dickishness)

The modified post-Crisi revamp (With unbelievable quantities of added dickishness)

And now... the DCAU variation...

THE ORIGINAL SAM LANE (AND LOIS' FIRST NUDE PHOTOSHOOT)

[alschroeder3]

As an old-time reader, I was very disappointed with the John Byrne post-Crisis reboot of Superman. I felt there was a huge number of great things thrown away with the silliness, and over the years many of the changes that came in with Byrne (a cold sterile Krypton based on Asimov's Solaria; the elimination of any other Kryptonian survivors) was gradually ignored and changed to become more in line with the Silver Age. Alan Moore's SUPREME used to good effect many of the story devices Byrne threw away.

But there is one change John Byrne made that I wholeheartedly agreed with; it was the change in Lois' father. He may be annoying, a military martinet who is half Thunderbolt Ross and half George Patton, with a lot of xenophobia to boot, but still...he was an improvement over the pre-Crisis version.

Why?

Let me introduce you to the ORIGINAL Sam Lane.
