7 on Nightwing Annual 2024 #1 reviewContrary 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…
I am not doing great. Last year, I had little going on in my life, and it was an endless source of frustration for someone just coming out of high school, and looking for direction. When I got this job, that was the first step to finding a routine I felt was both satisfying and…
Grayson was a tricky prospect. Taking Dick Grayson, one of the oldest established characters in comics, long known as the beloved Nightwing, and turning him into a spy? That's gutsy. Fortunately, the venture paid off, as Grayson was as one of DC's best books for its entire run, and that acclaim in turn catapulted Tom…
Following possibly its best singular run of issues, Grayson returns for its penultimate collection. Collecting Robin War #1-2 and Grayson #13-16, A Ghost in the Tomb covers Agent 37's adventures in Gotham and abroad as he goes from training new We Are Robin recruits to uncovering the lingering mysteries of Spyral. Robin War (Robin War…
Agent 37 returns for his third act as an agent of Spyral in Grayson Vol. 3: Nemesis. Collecting the "DC You" sneak preview, issues nine through twelve of the series proper, and Grayson Annual #2, Nemesis contains what may be the best singular run of issues over the course of the series. There's certainly a…
Agent 37 is back for one four last final adventures before he makes his long-awaited return as Nightwing. Now, I know that Grayson didn't end the way most of us wanted it to, but at least it was an enjoyable ride up to the very end. Lanzing and Kelly team up one last time to send Agent 37…
Dick Grayson returns for the second half of his first "season" as an agent of Spyral. In We All Die at Dawn, Dick's exploits with his eclectic supporting cast are further detailed as Spyral seeks to bring down a crazed cult, prevent Armageddon, and bring about their own possibly sinister ends. Content Collecting issues 5-8 and Grayson…
Here we are: the end of the line. The grand finale.* Some third "this is the end" cliché. The difficulty I'm having, as I have for the past few months, is reviewing this book as it is and not how I wish it would have been. Given the early spoiler that Dick would don a costume once…
Look, I know how great Tom King and Tim Seeley are. They took a high concept idea that probably shouldn't have worked and turned it into one of the best new comics in years, thanks to both spot-on characterization and a deft hand with some of DC's weirder ideas. Grayson, right from the beginning, has…
Creative teams change all the time. You can read a book for years and go through dozens of names on the credits page, especially in the constantly shifting world of superhero comics. Extended runs from a single team are not at all unheard of, as evidenced by the relatively uninterrupted stint (minus an issue or…
Think back to when it was first announced that Dick Grayson would become a spy following the events of Forever Evil. What were your thoughts and feelings? Relief? Confusion? "Way to spoil the ending, guys"? Personally, I was just glad he was going to live to see another day, as he's been one of my…
Earlier today, it was announced that fan-favorite writer Tom King has signed an exclusive contract with DC, making the publisher his official home for the foreseeable future. King, who is best known for helming Grayson with Tim Seeley, is also head writer of Omega Men, the Vertigo title Sheriff of Babylon, and the main Robin…
Grayson #16: "Code Word: Swordfish" Written by Tim Seeley and Tom King Illustrated by Mikel Janín Colored by Jeromy Cox Lettered by Carlos M. Mangual A pulp thriller title.

Grayson #14: “A Ghost From the Tomb Part 2” Written by Tim Seeley and Tom King Illustrated by Stephen Mooney Colored by Jeromy Cox Lettered by Carlos M. Mangual Der ewige kreis. The endless circle.

Grayson #13: “A Ghost From the Tomb” Written by Tim Seeley and Tom King Illustrated by Mikel Janín Inked by Hugo Petrus Colored by Jeromy Cox Lettered by Carlos M. Mangual Put this smooth jam on to set the mood. It will make sense later, I promise. For the past month or so, I've been…
Grayson Annual #2: "Just a Guy" Written by Tim Seeley and Tom King Illustrated by Alvaro Martinez Inked by Raul Fernandez Colored by Jeromy Cox Lettered by Carlos M.

Grayson #11: "Nemesis Part 3" Written by Tom King and Tim Seeley Illustrated by Mikel Janín Colored by Jeromy Cox Lettered by Carlos M. Mangual Grayson oozes style, much like its leading man. Each page is dripping with intrigue, the tension is always high, and each page flies by until you get to the resolution…
Grayson #10: "Nemesis" Written by Tim Seeley and Tom King Illustrated by Mikel Janín Colors by Jeromy Cox Letters by Carlos M. Mangual First things first, go read Josh's interview with King and Seeley. Yes, even if you've already read it. Read it again. Those guys are a delight. ......... Alright, welcome back. Now we…
