Okay, only just started reading this, but the first question is about Melinda and it looks like they won't be fridging her. So woohoo.
Shard
...Oh. Interesting point about Audre there.
Pinky Hood
I'm still reading too but yeah. So glad they mentioned how they didn't want to make infidelity part of Melinda's backstory
Shard
Yes, absolutely.
Shard
And I love that they realized the easy way out was just...she's older than Dick.
Tad Cooper
Well that’s a relief
Pinky Hood
The Ted Lasso reference totally explains why the run has a different tone. So happy that they don't seem interested into dipping too many of the usual dramatic tropes comics do
Shard
Oh God, that bit at the end.
Shard
Also, there's plenty of drama in the comic without adding relationship drama, too.
Pinky Hood
YEAH. Totally agree with them it's been overplayed, especially with Dick
Shard
I also love that they don't plan to have Kory and Babs catty over Dick. They're both heroes, after all.
Pinky Hood
Love that they recognize it's dumb to have two women fighting over a guy.
Pinky Hood
Really, this whole interview gives off that they really do know what they're doing and understand the core of what makes Dick a hero with a big emphasis that he's got a support system
Tad Cooper
Nightwing is such a joy to read
Shard
And the ending of the interview got me misty.
Pinky Hood
I hope this is a good long run for them
Shard
Oooh. Okay. Apparently, the Nigthwing annual comes out in November and will explain Heartless.
Shard
I don't know about unmasking, but it'll explain why Heartless takes some hearts and not others and how they ended up without one themselves.
Tad Cooper
AND IT HAS A BITEWING STORY
Tad Cooper
ABOUT A YEAR IN HER LIFE WITH DICK
Shard
AWWW!
Shard
Okay. I'm hyped.
Tad Cooper
Bitewing. Because she's worth it.
