Description

He's tried to save Bludhaven before, but has only ever really scratched the surface - now, he's really trying to enact systemic change, in the best way he knows how; acrobatics and hitting people.

And to top it all the mid-volume reveal that Mayor Zucco is actually Dick's half-sister actually worked for me. Dick is such a great guy and Tom Taylor, with the help of the fantastic art by Bruno Redondo, manages to make Dick's warmth personality jump out of the page. And while some of my complaints are geared toward Dick’s mission to create a safety net for Blüdhaven’s poor and needy, I do like that there isn’t a city destroying threat at play. I haven't been interested in keeping up with DC lately, but this is one title that I'm glad I didn't miss out on.

This is why Dick’s new struggle of inheriting vast wealth is an equally intriguing and troublesome angle. I've ignored Nightwing's solo book for more than a decade now, so I missed all the agent of Spyral and Ric Grayson stuff, but I thought I'd give the new Vol.

He’s wearing half of Anarky’s mask for some reason and his MO is to remove the victim’s heart and put it in a jar - literally making them less of a heart. He is perhaps best known for the DC Comics series, DCEASED, NIGHTWING (nominated for 8 Eisner Awards), SUPERMAN: SON OF KAL-EL, INJUSTICE: GODS AMONG US, SUICIDE SQUAD, EARTH 2 and BATMAN/SUPERMAN as well as Marvel's FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD SPIDER-MAN, ALL NEW WOLVERINE, X-MEN: RED, DARK AGES and SUPERIOR IRON MAN. The color palette isn't as subdued as Matt Fraction's Hawkeye run but Adriano Lucas understands that less is more in most cases.Even though it’s not perfect, I don’t know how someone could read this without a smile creeping up on their face constantly.

Bruno Redondo’s and Adriano Lucas’ work catches your eye and you don’t mind simply pouring over the art. Lucas’ colors are also tantamount to Redondo’s success as every choice he makes is perfect, especially the soft pink and purple hues of Dick’s apartment lighting, which adds a dash of romance to Dick’s solo scenes with Barbara. He truly understands these characters and he places them in situations that pulls on your heartstrings.Taylor has written for DC Comics, Dark Horse Comics, IDW Publishing, Wildstorm, 2000 AD and Gestalt Comics. With all this new found money Dick is now a billionaire, and wants to make a difference in Bludhaven. As part of his will, Alfred, who was secretly a billionaire, would give his fortune to Dick following his death.
