Nightwing in Blue and Nighting in Red
Nightwing now wears red instead of the much loved blue that people have come to except and me personally I've come to like but for what i believe they represent. For me the blue showed that unlike the other Robins ,Jason Todd and Tim Drake, Dick Grayson truly moved on and walked out of shadow of Batman. This is shown when Dick and Bruce argue cause like a twenty something year old man he does like being talked at or down to. Plus unlike Red Robin and Red Hood he mostly works alone showing that he wasn't not only ready to take up the mantle as the new Batman but, stand on equal footing with some of the heavy hitter in the DC universe. Basically to me the blue was a child moving out of his parents home, learning about the world and, starting his own life/career. On the other hand the red seems to have come after his time as Batman which is prefect because this show to me that the child now young man has seen some of the burdens that the parent deals with. Basically Dick's time as Batman let him walk a mile in Bruce's shoe seeing how heavy of the Bat is as well as being the head of the Bat family. So to me the red is a mark of respect the Dick wears as kind of an symbolic sorry to Bruce as well as a thank you for teaching him and never giving up as him.
