Watch The Awesome Trailer For Fanmade Nightwing Web Series

About 18 months ago Ismahawk Studio launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund a web series centred around the DC Comics superhero Nightwing. Nightwing becomes the alter-ego of Batman's sidekick Dick Grayson (Robin) after he falls out with the Caped Crusader and leaves Gotham.

And now, after spending the last year making the series a reality, Ismahawk Studio—Danny Shepherd and Jeremy Le—have released the full trailer for the fanmade mini series, which will delve into the origin story of the character.

Considering they only had a small budget the trailer's impressive stuff, and the series looks like it'll feature some other characters from the DC universe too, with the villain Deathstroke appearing in this clip. The series premieres on 29 September. Check out the synopsis below:
