While tensions are running high after the horrible tragedy last week, I thought I'd share my appreciation of a DC D-lister who I'd absolutely love to see more of, especially now when a positive character like this is kinda needed.

Bilal Asselah a.k.a. Nightrunner

latest

I'd be down, never read anything he was in. Cool look though
 
my marvel unlimited queue is 291 books right now

just finished morrisons new x-men (really great) and then whedons astonishing (im not crying your crying)

That was good


now on to x-23 and then spider island

Yeah its Paul Dini, this is the original design they were going with for Harley in Batman TAS pre now classic outfit. He didn't draw it. I am fairly sure that was Bruce Timm but the statue is credited to Dini for some reason.

are you sure? I could have sworn I read an interview with timm that Dini showed him that design, he laughed at it and they worked together to get her classic look

SpiderBatman?!?!
lol alot of his poses definitely look Spider-Man esque. But no, he's a Parisian Muslim parkourist, and a member of Batman Inc.

What a fantastic Costume
Agreed!

He appears a handful of times in Batman Inc. He originally showed up in a two-parter story, Detective Comics Annual 12 and Batman Annual 28. Sadly neither issue is on Comixology, but I tweeted them about it. Hopefully those stories will go up sometime in the near future.

I'm trying to remember where I read an origin story for Nightrunner. What there one in any of the New 52 Batman volumes? I feel like that's where I read it, but I don't know. It was very good, though.

Nah I was just assuming, it looks like Timms work to me but it could easily be someone else.

Writer Paul Dini wanted a female character to appear in Batman: The Animated Series as Joker’s assistant. She was only meant to show up in that one episode, so Harley was apparently stubborn even back then. Dini drew a quick sketch to show artist Bruce Timm what he had in mind.

Huh, so it was Dini.
 
Um, yeah. O_O

Marvel spoiled it with an inteview, Rich just re-posted it on his site, you guys are probably going to end up seeing it, I won't post it here out of respect for others' desire not to be spoiled and I hope that you all do the same, but...

He appears in Batman Incorporated, but the story you're talking about I think were the pre-52 issues I previously mentioned (Det. Comics Annual 12, Batman Annual 28)

Squad and Titans are both long overdue for great runs, happy to see some change there. I'm super disappointed that Venditti will still be running Flash and GL into the ground though
 
Um, yeah. O_O

i went and took a look and yeah for sure its there

The character is obvious but I dont know what the fuck else is actually happening in the scene.

edit: obvious in a "this is the one its happening to in this scene" context not in a "death has been telegraphed for months" context

trying to not spoil :x
