Wow. I mean, wow. This was bad. One of the best things I can say is that the bleeding edge tech storyline reminded me of some of the mid 90s marvel stories right when the internet was starting up. Those stories are incredibly dated now, and I’m sure this will be, soon.
And then it just got worse. From tech paranoia to a mystic race? It was just horrible. I was worried about reading this after percy’s bad green arrow issues. He doubled down. Just making up HUGE NEW THINGS from nowhere. And suddenly Batgirl can just pull really expensive tech out of her butt for Nightwing?
I’m about to hate-read volume 8. But who knows, maybe Lobdell and Nicieza will be better.

So Ben Percy took over Nightwing and although I had enjoyed the Nightwing run so far , Percy's arrival had me giddy with anticipation and honestly excited . Alas!
So the volume had 2 stories , the first dealing with a Computer virus thingy named Wyrm , and look I really enjoyed how Percy denoted the present generations over dependence on every thing technology and how different things are and in doing so he created a story to detail a hyperbole of negativity that arises from our over dependence on technology.
And of course a bat-family storyline involving technology can't be complete without the inclusion of either Batgirl or Tim (Red Robin) we got Batgirl and the banterous duo were really fun to read . But that's the only good thing about the book because this followed poor artstyle , generic story run and awful dialogues .
It was really hard to read through and I'm putting a 3 volume notice for Nightwing , if things dont improve in the next 2 volumes, I'll drop the title

I'm torn. The new baddie was pretty interesting, but the jumping around the narrative and some plot points that don't really add up, detracted.
