That sounds weird.

Anyway, I spoke with the writer of Nightwing just a few minutes ago, and they are sticking with Dick!

That sounds weird, too. Apparently, 'Dick' is still Richard Grayson's nickname. The request I got to call him Richard, or, alternatively, Rick, seemingly didn't get around…

You know considering you're one of the biggest name DC authors who still actually writes for DC they don't actually seem to show you or the characters you write a great deal of respect. I don't see this crap happening to Morrison or Johns.

It's not a matter of respect, this stuff happens to all of us, all the time. It's a shared universe with thousands of characters and hundreds of creative people working at any given time. It happens to Geoff and Grant as well, i assure you.
