GRAYSON: EARTH ONE Fan-Made Nightwing Web Series Launches Premiere Episode

"Grayson: Earth One' is the re-imagined origin story of the hero known as Nightwing/ Richard Grayson. The series takes place in a new continuity on a new Earth separate from the DC Universe, freeing it from continuity restraints.

"Grayson: Earth One" season one is a non profit six episode season dedicated to exploring the origin story of the DC character known as Nightwing -- but with a twist. The twist being that Richard Grayson has never had the good fortune of being adopted as a child by Bruce Wayne, thus never becoming the boy wonder. Instead, we have a Richard Grayson that had to fend for himself on the unforgiving streets of Gotham and, even worse, the streets of Bludhaven. A character that has to overcome years of dog eat dog mentality to become a selfless and kind individual. To ultimately fulfill his destiny and become a HERO.

Of course, changing that single event within Richard Grayson's life sends a ripple across the entire DC universe. It changes the history of characters such as Bruce Wayne, Barbara Gordon, Helena Bertinelli and their adversaries too.

Why is change a good thing? Simply put, we wanted to tell a story that involves characters that are beloved, but also wanted a story that the audience could not predict based its iconic source material. We would also love to attract people that had no previous interest in the comic book world by grounding these characters into situations that they could relate to. We look forward to creating a new fan base following these awesome comic book characters that we grew up with.

Starring Stephen McCain as Richard Grayson, Daz Crawford as Dr. Victor Friese, Rileah Vanderbilt as Helena Bertinelli, Angela Gulner as Barbara Gordon and Katie H. Young as Carrie Kelly

cinematography and editing were well done. acting was on the whole pretty good, but def got really cheesy in parts, some dialogue was bad too. loving the twist on the story, the more grounded look. Grayson reminds me of the Crow. Keep batman never shown. it took me out when we saw his face. Batman looked great when you could barely see him and he was out of focus. keeps that mythic quality to him, and seeing as its not about him, he shouldn't be really shown.

It's so bad. For such a different story that it's nearly original, why not make their own characters because nothing is the same beside the name.

Not terrible, not a fan of the story though. Dick Grayson started as Robin, he should stay that way. At least to me.

I get it, and I can get over any ciné-vid,dialogue,or acting critiques I can come up with. It's fun, a little guerrilla, and kinda sexy. Keep it up.

Dont forget people that this is a FAN MADE SERIES! Yes we all got different taste, but for those who are hating on the storyline, ADR, costumes, etc; maybe you should check this out

http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/grayson-earth-one-season-one--2

It seems the one who did the article totally forgot the purpose of this project, by just quoting the whole description for their indiegogo campaign. Awesome stuff guys!
