0 on Nightwing #128 reviewReady, set, go! Nightwing has twenty-four hours to save the Titans Tower after a fifth dimensional event.

Robin has been shot! And the identity of this new “Holiday” shooter remains a mystery. Even though Robin survived the encounter with the shooter, Batman would never forgive himself if something severe were to ever happen to the boy. So how will the Dynamic Duo rebound? Dave Johnson, who’s mostly known for his cover work,…

Contrary to the title, this is not a Nightwing book. In actuality, Nightwing Annual 2024 surrounds the mysterious life story of Bea Bennett. Unexpectedly, Grayson's ex-girlfriend and Pirate Queen has a more complex backstory than initially thought. Let's explore further! The Streets Need A Body Like most characters in DC, Bea's story begins with a…
As Tom Taylor's run nears its end, Nightwing #113 works as a makeshift anthology for its #300 issue milestone. Somewhat feeling like an annual, it features three consecutive stories told by Tom Taylor, Marv Wolfman, and Richard W. Conrad. The issue honors the spirit of the run so far, and ominously teases what's to come.…
The second half of Nightwing's latest tale begins with a race to find a missing child. Initially, Nightwing and Batman assume Heartless is behind the sudden homicide, but truthfully, something worse happening. Let's take a closer look. Proud Of My Son Interestingly, Tom Taylor continues to tell this story from Batman's perspective. Batman's observations about…
As usual, DC promises that every event will be "a game changer," and that the universe "won't be the same." To this end, Beast World features violent mass murder and trauma throughout that world. Most importantly, our optimistic changeling, Beast Boy, is now dead. Before the DC Universe can mourn the lost hero, they must…
Originally, this arc was going to be Nightwing's first swashbuckling pirate adventure. An infamous yet secretive pirate crew protecting their mysterious bank needed his help following theft and murder! Unfortunately, I think the ship has sailed on Tom Taylor's pirate arc. Let's take a look. The Heart of The Story First and foremost, the story…
As the Out Of The Shadows arc comes to a close, the Titans conclude the first act of the series' most pressing issues.

The next installment of Dick Grayson's new pirate adventure is just over the horizon! Now that Nightwing and Captain Blüd have made an alliance, they set sail to confront her evil half-brother. Yet, although billed as a swashbuckling epic, Nightwing is closer to Tim Allen's The Santa Clause version of piracy. Let's take a look.…
Howdy, Bat-fans! We're back again with one of the best comics coming out of DC these days, and I really can't stress enough how much I love it. After the action-packed antics of the last few issues, it's time to slow down and get a little slice-of-life stuff in. Let's check in on our heroes…
The newest era of Nightwing has begun! Not only am I taking over this book's reviews, but this marks the dawn of an all-new swashbuckling story direction. After overcoming his last foe and adjusting to changes with the Titans, Nightwing finally decides to investigate a mystery bothering him for several chapters. Mystery Box Following Knight…
I can’t tell you how excited I am that Batman: Wayne Family Adventures even exists, let alone got published not only as a Webtoon, but got a physical release as well. This comic has been my number one favorite thing DC comics has published since it’s initial release back in September of 2021. I’m delighted…
Hey there, Bat-fans! As many of you may know, I’m a huge fan of Mark Waid’s work. My first encounter with him was his Legion of Super-Heroes run when I was 11, during my initial period of obsession with the team, and I fell head over heels for his writing. Since then, I’ve read countless more of his…
Welcome back, Bat-boys and girls! We now arrive at the stunning conclusion of the Batman: The Audio Adventures limited issue series. In the penultimate chapter, horror unfolds in two places at once. Batman attempts to stop the prophecy of the Demon, as Robin and Killer Croc unexpectedly find themselves on a collision course with the…
Knight Terrors: Nightwing #1 is a stylish, yet simplistic exploration of Dick Grayson’s psyche as he confronts the possibility of being a murderer. The set up allows Daniele Di Nicuolo’s art to shine, but Becky Cloonan’s and Michael W. Conrad’s script offers no surprises or compelling insight into the title character. Right from the start,…
Nightwing #105 features art completely from Nightwing’s first person point of view, creating an interesting but debatably distracting, visual experience. Tom Taylor’s script is solid, but Bruno Redondo’s pencils display the pros and cons of dedicating an entire issue to a single visual perspective, no matter how fun the novelty appears at first glance. The…
