Nightwing: Renegade<\/a>, Dick Grayson creates the villain Renegade to spy on the Secret Society of Supervillains. I’ve not read these particular issues firsthand, but the story sees Dick questioning his role and choices (both as hero and faux-villain) while training (& attempting to redeem) Deathstroke’s daughter Ravager in exchange for information on the Society. If you were reading the larger DC books and not Nightwing (like me) this storyline takes place shortly before Chemo is dropped on Bludhaven.<\/p>\nIn the comics, the Renegade costume featured two spikes protruding from the elbows and a fuller cowl that left only his mouth and hair visisble. The ebay picture from Spring was simply a repaint of the standard figure (no spikes) with black boots and gloves on a brown body with the blue symbol in red. The head piece was unpainted, so it’s unknown how Mattel would approach it if they were going in this direction. Would they ignore the mold lines of the Nightwing mask? Would they simply paint that mask brown? I’m not sure. Mattel hasn’t done much painting over sculpted lines with DC Classics, but that’s a common feature of JLU.<\/p>\n
So, will Renegade be the fourth TRU exclusive figure? I can’t say for sure, but the signs are definitely pointing to Nightwing as the identity of the last figure. Will it be Renegade? We should know for sure in a few days…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

While Nightwing has had his fair share of costume changes over the years, an eBay leak in March (the same leak which first showcased the possibility of a metallic Hal Jordan) showed a Nightwing in his “Renegade” costume. In this particular story arc, collected in
