 So today UGO posted a preview for next week's Red Hood & The Outlaws #6, which looks to be a completely flashback issue about the first meeting between Jason and Starfire.

Two things I noticed: One is that Lobdell isn't doing the full scripts for this issue, but rather Josh Williamson of the "Supergirl/Damian" S/B issue fame and current writer of Voodoo.

Second will be put under a cut.

That's right! Whlie Dick's Robin costume seemed to have had some tweaks, it looks like his initial Discowing costume is still around!

I started thinking "things" when I read "what an ass," but now that you mentioned panel 1...I can't unsee it now.

I can't help but notice how much attention the New!DW outfit is aiming at Dick's dick.

Oh definitely - its the weird high-light/motion lines/outline - around his face.
His head is moving? vibrating? WHAT IS GOING ON

So the Discowing costume actually survived the reboot? Interesting. :o

To be honest, it's so heavily modified I don't see it as the Disco!Wing costume at all.

No collar + no exposed chest = Not!Disco!Wing

Excuse me while I go cheer in my head that the writing might be getting better now on this series.

Okay back, and I don't what I feel about Dick's outfit. I like the changes (though it screams 80s for reasons I can't explain), but I miss the flare of the original.

Maybe it's a transitional outfit from the original Discowing to something else?

And that's just... sad.... if you can't embrace the absurdity of comics early designs then IMHO it shows a certain lack of confidence in them.

I like this, but the timeline continues to elude me.

1) How old are all the Robins and how long was each Robin?

2) Did Nightwing and Batman still have their falling out? I thought the DCnU Robin program was an internship program designed by Batman to churn out promising youngsters into competent vigilantes now. Did that change or did that happen after Dick left? After Jason was killed and brought back to life by Talia...did Death in a Family still happen?

3)Have they let us know if the Titans or Nightwing's history with Slade happened in the DCnU? Does DCnU Nightwing have any leadership experience at all?

4)What is DCnU's relationship with Superman? Did Dick still get the idea for the Nightwing identity from him?

That's not the Disco!Wing costume. The most you could say about it is that it's a heavily modified version of the D!W suit. Pre-DCnU Disco!Wing had a deep V-neck with exposed chest, and a goofy high collar not unlike Deadman's. And I'm pretty sure it didn't have shoulder armor.

It seems kind of silly to go to all the trouble to 'update' the Disco!Wing Suit just to use it in a flashback sequence...

I never really hated the old Nightwing disco suit. Thought it wasn't bad looking, but was more..meh. I prefer the newer looks but umm...the DCnU incarnation of the disco suit honestly..it looks pretty damn sweet.

I'm really not that jazzed to go into the repercussions of Red Hood's talking, memory-keeping genitals right now, but I will say it's a pity the large collar won't be joining us for this issue. The new suit's not so bad, I suppose.

Actually, I think that's supposed to be Dick's short lived and oft-overlooked second Nightwing costume.

A new script writer?

Maybe now we can have plot structure and meaningful content instead of just terrible jokes! :D

In regards to the scans above though, I do wish writers would remember that Jason has other personality traits other than 'obnoxious.'

On the other hand, Dick *was* rambling on in a fairly condescending manner. For a 'people' person he can be really tone-deaf at times.
