Heroes 2 Housewives: Nightwing

The original caption had this element of disappointment from Joker for getting a sidekick gal instead of the Bat. I played that up for this take since I felt it made this one pretty unique from the others.
Joker is hard to write as always since he needs to be sort of funny. I never know how my sense of humor carries through these comics (not that its integral to this sort of thing). I did my best not to dip into 4th wall breaks which I felt weren't really Joker's deal. Instead sticking to lines about performance and comedy itself.
As always shading delayed on these. I'm hoping to have all the currently unshaded ones in this series posted up next month.

I'm optimistic we can get them done before the 10th.

I'm glad you're still enjoying it, admittedly the back half is more difficult for me than the front given the more obscure characters. I'm sure for DC fans these are all very well-known figures but I'm definitely a comics-casual.

Do you know when next month you’ll have the ones from this series shaded? It’s just this is my favorite series of yours, so I hope it’ll be sooner rather than later.

Love it as usual :) I like the injection of some more humor from The Joker than the original caption had, though I'm mostly happy with the general disappointment/frustration from Joker staying intact. I actually like Nightwing a lot but it's inevitable that Joker would be sad that he got the sidekick instead of the main prize. Great adaption as always!
