VIGILANTE

Regular monthly series that lasted for 12 issues.

This, the most recent Vigilante, first appeared in Nightwing #133-137. While he wears a costume similar to Adrian Chase's, it is a new vigilante under the mask. This Vigilante also appears in Gotham Underground, set after his initial encounter with Nightwing.

Following the events of Vigilante #1, the new Vigilante is seen out of costume for the first time and is referred to by his ally JJ as "Dorian." He initially operates under the identity of Joe Flynn, a small time criminal with a rap sheet, but it is later revealed that the real Joe Flynn is dead. Dorian has the technology to graft another person's face to his own and his assistant changes the police records so his fingerprint and DNA point back to his fake identity. At the end of the first story arc, Dorian abandons the Joe Flynn identity and begins to make preparations to assume a new identity of a dead and forgotten criminal. It is also revealed that Dorian is the brother of the late Adrian Chase in Vigilante #9.
