I actually really like this idea. When absolute was announced I was trying to figure out what Dick Grayson would be in this universe and the conclusion i came to was he needed to not have his connection to the rest of universe, but was struggling to figure out how to take that away. This is a great way to that!
I still think batman should have a Robin, but this batman would work better with a Jason type robin. I'd keep basically his whole backstory the same, but the big difference is he chooses to become redhood instead of dying and coming back angry
My pitch for Absolute Nightwing is different. Going back to Hayley's Circus, young Dick Grayson just witnessed his parents falling to their death. Instead of Bruce Wayne in the crowd, it's Dick Grayson's great-grandfather, William Cobb. Unbeknownst to Dick, William Cobb is the current Talon in the Court of Owls. Cobb takes custody of Grayson and trains him under his wing to become the next Talon. So in my version, Absolute Nightwing is Talon in the Court of Owls.
I don't wanna be a debbie downer, but i jusr find it weird that you'd pitch absolute nightwing as a character, when the Absolute Universe, as far as i know, is onluly meant to be all about the MAIN dc heroes. But i get you. I just find it weird.
Just a fun exercise to come up with ideas for characters, plus given snider has signed on to write absolute batman for 2 years minimum I do reccon they'll drop more characters 👍

Thanks 👍 and yeah I totally agree, Jason would work far better, especially with the red hood gang existing already in the world

Collar is a good idea since he was a showman....
