Nightwing and Batman Beyond
Summary 35 years after first hitting the big screen, the 1989 Batman film universe will get its own Nightwing, and his costume is heavily inspired by Batman Beyond. Tim Burton's universe has received a comic book continuation in the form of Batman '89, and its current ongoing sequel series, Batman '89: Echoes. With the Joel Schumacher movies not being canon, this series delivered Bruce Wayne his own Robin in the form of Drake Winston.
As revealed in a reply to the original post, the cover art pays homage to the work of Jose Luis García Lopez. Considering that Winston is still Robin, as of the series' most recent issues, it's time to speculate about how he makes the big transition. Nightwing Will Debut in Batman '89: Echoes #4 By Sam Hamm and Joe Quinones As seen above, this Nightwing costume sports a color scheme that echoes Nightwing's short-lived red costume, mostly used during the New 52, with some noticeable modifications. Much like Drake Winston's previous Robin costume, this Nightwing costume sports a beak-like hood attached to a cape. Under the hood is an upper-face mask with glowing lenses.
Drake Winston first entered the Burtonverse in Batman '89 #1 by Hamm and Quinones, and his character is based on scrapped plans for Marlon Wayans to play Robin. When he meets Batman, Drake is already serving vigilante justice on the streets. In this world, his name comes from someone mistaking someone else's words — "...he said the dude was robbin' the store" — for the name Robin Hood.
