I received a digital copy from the publisher for review

Nightwing has always been the most hopeful. E,her of the bat-family. This surrender Nightwing series has been no exception. Nightwing always wants the best for others, even his enemies. Tim steely has done a great job of bringing Nightwing back to Blüdhaven and establishing his role in the city. This story does a good job building the backstory of Raptor and the depth of his relationship with the Graysons. The art was good, it wasn’t amazing and I was reading a digital scan from the publisher for review purposes, so some of the colors may have been negatively affected.

Overall, if you like Nightwing and the Bat-family, you will like this book.

Didn’t really care about Raptor.

Nightwing is the best!

I love nightwing so much. And I know he is super popular with the ladies, but calm it down a bit authors - it’s almost too much.

This was really good!

Raptor is back and he is taking revenge on Nightwing by sort of threatening Bludhaven and we see how that plays out and its awesome and his working with the Pigeon and how that threatens both Dicks personal and superhero life and so he has to work with Blockbuster to stop this mad man from transforming his city into a monster filled city and in the process discover things about himself and his family and all.. its a personal story with such high stakes and it ends in a predictable manner but fun way for sure and an emotional one. I like how it all comes together in the end and Seeley does give a good ending to the whole thing.

Also Huntress team up vs Orca and some gangs and yeah that one felt short and felt like going nowhere, honestly it would have been fun if they had explored more of the relationship drama but a nice redemption for the Run-offs as well and a focus on Shawn and Dick's relationship.

SO yeah overall an okayish volume with good character moments and a personal story for Dick and end of a good run on nightwing!
