I dont understand why they are changing the series to Grayson and in this volume you dont see Nightwing too muchits more focused on Dick Grayson

(B+) 76% | GoodNotes: Eschewing ambition, it’s a somber, sentimental, stymied withdrawal to bread and butter Batman; a messy tidying up.

It's hard to rate something when I know I would have been able to follow along better if I were caught up with the Justice League, but alone this volume was a bit scattered. I know his story continues in Grayson, so I'll be checking those out after I do catch up with some of the other series I'm reading now.

Too Many Cooks Spoil the BrothOVERALL RATING: 3.5 starsArt: 4 starsProse: 3.75 starsPlot: 3.5 starsPacing: 4 starsCharacter Development: 4.25 starsWorld Building: 3.5 starsTim Seeley and Tom King should have never written issue 30. Wasn't needed and should have been placed as an annual in the Grayson run to act as a bridge. Really enjoyed Higgins last issue and that should have been where this trade ended! We get the real Dick Grayson right there!

2.75⭐️A weak ending, plus DC needs to stop with the Dick/Babs stuff (I know that mess is still ongoing but I can hope). Stand by the fact that they shouldn’t have retconned her age. Looking forward to reliving the joy that is Grayson though!

3.5 starsQuite a few tie-ins in this volume, if you like that sort of thing.It starts off with the Zero Year tie-in. Don't get excited, it's not like Batman shows up.It's about Dick in the pre-Dead Family stage. It just so happens that Haley's Circus is in town during the Riddler's takeover of Gotham City. Basically, a stick-by-your-friends-don't-be-a-cocky-ass kind of story.Then we fast-forward back to Nightwing and Barbara during her I-don't-wanna-be-Batgirl crisis.And there's a whole Will

Did Higgins not see the switch from Nightwing to Grayson coming? (Not so spoilery spoiler: Dick is officially dead, but working undercover as a spy.) I ask because so much of this volume, and the volume before, was trying to set up this whole new life for Dick in Chicago. Yeah, so much for that. Which is all well and good, I suppose, because I wasn't actually finding it particularly compelling. Yes, I still like Dick, and I think Higgins was doing his best with the material. I just didn't really...

As part of Sidekicks week among the Shallow Comics Readers, I'm diving headlong into four volumes of Nightwing - the one, true sidekick of our warm and fuzzy pal The Batman.Last book in the series guys, let's not fuck it up shall we? Getting off to a rocky start - wonder if you knew where this series was headed, and were told to just circle the airport for a couple of issues while DC editorial got its shit together. Seriously, a "Nightwing adventure before he was Robin?" OK I'll bite, but at lea...

SPOILERS AHEAD!Okay, not too many spoilers.A flashback to the Year Zero events and the first, pre-Batman adventures of Dick Grayson. Nightwing packs up his Gotham apartment for the move to his new city and has an adventure with post-Batgirl Barbara Gordon. Gotham costumed (and non-costumed) criminals stop by Chicago. A sharp-eyed observer uncovers Nightwing's secret identity, and suffers gains and losses for the knowledge. The events of Trinity of Sin and Forever Evil intrude on the continuity b...

And... Nightwing New 52 ends with a sad sputter.I remember being so disappointed in this ending/this volume when I read it for the first time in 2014. On a second read, it's not as bad as I remembered ...it's not just not so good.The whole volume feels like a rush to try and end this series by putting together a bunch of random one-off issues that have plot-threads tied to this series. We have another issue with young Dick Grayson from Haley's Circus and of course one of the boys is a Maroni...T...

The New 52 Nightwing series to me was a bit hit and miss. Overall it wasn't bad, I just thought it had the potential to be so much better. This final volume was one of the better in the series, but I did think some of it was a bit of a downer. It wraps up leading into the new GRAYSON series where everyone thinks Nightwing is dead and hes now working undercover. (This spins out of FOREVER EVIL). The final issue of this volume also includes the most brutal Nightwing-Batman battle I've ever seen. J...

Talk about going out with a whimper.

Closer to a 3.5, but I'm a sucker for Dick Grayson. I had forgotten that I need to read Forever Evil to understand the final issue, but hey, considering I started reading comics again a year ago because of the Grayson comics, I think I've got a pretty good handle on the whys and wherefores. Not the tightest volume out there, but I liked the wrap up and am I the only one that got a little chill of that full page spread of Dick as a Talon surrounded by the Court?

I enjoyed this volume, a set of stories, more than the previous one, one long storyline. Artist Will Conrad is one to watch, and artist Russell Dauterman appears here perhaps before beginning his amazing run as artist on Thor with Jason Aaron. If you like Nightwing, here you go!

Reviewed First at Brunner's BookshelfI did things a little backwards. I have only read Vol 1 of the New 52 reboot, but when this became available through Edelweiss as an Advanced reader copy I jumped at the chance to put my name in the ring. I was fortunate enough to be granted a copy from DC Comics and I am very grateful. Nightwing is one of my favorite superheroes. I always loved the lighter side Dick Greyson brought as Robin to the Dynamic Duo. When he left the cave to become his own man as N...

The next to last issue, written by Kyle Higgins, was the emotional closure to Nightwing. The last issue brings us to the next chapter in Dick Grayson's life, an agent of Spyral.Sad to see this iteration close, as it was exciting seeing Dick relocate to Chicago and start over, but c'est la vie. Well done, DC, on one of the best books of the New 52.

I never was a very big fan of Nightwing, but finding this issue for a fews bucks I decided to give it a try. The illustrations are very beautiful, dynamic, great colors and visually attractive. The story and the action on the other hand are a bit to «young» for me I would say. The action is less brutal, and the life story event are more teen/young adult related. Nightwing is an interesting character in relation with Batman, but on his own, it lack of a little something to catch me an keep me in....

When it comes to Kyle Higgins's run of The New 52 Nightwing, there has been a share of hits and misses. At its best, Higgins can craft a lengthy story arc that captures the spirit of the titular hero and comes within range of matching the revered Chuck Dixon run that popularized the character over a decade ago. But at its worst, Nightwing has been saddled with short and unmeaningful story arcs that fail to progress the character and feel more like filler to segue into the next big crossover even...

Nightwing's final volume begins with a Zero Year tie-in which is pretty decent if unremarkable, but it does teach Dick some good lessons that continue into his adult life.Next comes the Nightwing Annual which ties into Batgirl: Wanted over in (you guessed it!) Batgirl, which introduces the New 52 Firefly in an interesting way whilst examining the relationship between Barbara Gordon and Dick along the way.Then there's the two-part Mad Hatter story, which unfortunately doesn't really go anywhere e...

Enjoyed this comic. Hope Dick will survive being an agent of Spyral. Poor Dick though. Everyone has to think he's dead.
