![]() ![]() Really enjoyed the visit from Tim Drake too. New villains (to Nightwing anyway), new haircut, and a mystery worthy of his mentor. Chuck introduces a whole new supporting cast that provided the depth that this series needed to get a good foothold early. Dixon got a brand new playground with Bludhaven and gets settled in quick. He really nailed the youthful, fun-loving, and optimistic attitude that sets Nightwing apart from Batman. This is probably the best stuff Chuck Dixon has ever written. The covers were nice and I like the new suit. ![]() Land fits right in with the rest of the “Liefeld” generation of 90’s artists. Never been a favorite of mine and boy did he carve that into stone with Grayson’s polka dot shirt, Hammer pants, and mullet. That said, I can see why it was collected here as it intros the then “new” suit (replacing the God-awful “disco” Nightwing getup) and explains why Dick makes the jaunt down to Bludhaven to set up shop. I haven’t heard that shit since the Fonz. Even when I was a lot less critical back in the day his stuff was bad. Denny O’Neil definitely doesn’t do it for me. ![]() This one collects the 4 issue Nightwing miniseries by Denny O’Neil and Greg Land and the first 8 issues of the original Nightwing ongoing series by Chuck Dixon, Scott McDaniel, and Karl Story. ![]() Another buddy-read with my shallow comic readin' pals!ĭC’s latest re-release of old the old Nightwing series starts here. ![]()
