On a serious note though, is this series any good? Not really a fan of this direction but would like to get actual opinions of people who have read it

It's quite good, yes. Very in-character and they really went with the sex-symbol thing.It's also good to have the spy aspect in the DCU.

DC!!!
Your killing me!!! You keep getting dick Grayson/Nightwing all wrong!!!
He'll never get off the bench player category to starter role as long as you keep feeding crap changes like this.
Fund him financially by Wayne Ent. Secretly and give him Bat Armor w the ability to fly (yes, aka DC's Ironman) hey he is pretty much a DC punisher now!?
Put him in a starter role with Justice league potential.

Gym shoes!?!?...sheez!

@hero1684

DC Punisher? You've clearly not read any of this series and are just a guy bitching off of previews. Not only does Dick never even fire a gun, the only time he uses it is as a make shift batarang to knock a dude out. He's still Dick Grayson in both the way he acts and talks.

He's still the carefree, optimistic guy who knows how to make the ladies swoon, and he's easily the most morally right character in the Spyral agency. He actually tries to talk down his enemies and reason with them, and his positive personality is even rubbing off on the other agents. They're starting to mellow out and have fun with the fact they're freaking spies all because of Dick.

So yeah, go read the [frick]ing series (seriously, DOES ANYONE HERE READ THE [frick]ING SOURCE MATERIAL YOU ALWAYS HARP ON ABOUT?!) before saying stupid shit like calling this a crap change or DC's punisher. Its easily the most Dick Grayson thing written in a long time. The only thing that's different is him lacking the Nightwing persona, everything else is there and perfectly intact.

Ummm If Grayson doesn't wear a mask, isn't easy for everyone to connect him to Bruce Wayne?

@ekrolo2
Dude I've read it, and not impressed at all! I was referring to his look (he looks like a Punisher knock off)
Why carry pistols and never use them???
That's like having sex (with a real woman) and never getting off!
Come on I'm a fan of Nightwing but I'm just tired of the minor meaningless changes that keeps him from a real role with real first string heroes. He's a second stringer and I want to see this guy a starter or given some significant change of credibility!
Gym shoes...Cmon man!!!
