Tal como a primeira trade da Batgirl: coisa medianíssima.
Argumento 100% mais-do-mesmo que nem o crossover com Batman (que entretanto releio e cuja pontuação me verei obrigada a rever em alta) o subtrai a um conjunto de lugares comuns aos quais uma arte sem verdadeira originalidade nada acrescenta, antes colocando uma ênfase demasiado forçada e até bacoca nas múltiplas coreografias da personagem.

Dick is back in bed but with who, starfire? No, babs? No, actually some chick from his old circus
Traps and trapezes - nightwing is done being Batman and is back to being nightwing and the circus he grew up in named halys circus is back in Gotham and dick feels nostalgic and starts screwing the girl he knew when he was young. Aside from that he is being hunted by a murderer named saiko for revenge reasons.
My thoughts - I was skeptical at first about dicks new suit with the black and red but after reading it and looking at the art I really enjoy the black and red, I also liked the batgirl story with dick. Their dialogue is really nice. I also liked the whole betrayal thing with raya. I also really liked the last issue since there was a lot of action and some backstory for saikos character.
Overall great book

Minus a star because I'm still not a fan of New 52. But it was Nightwing, so there's that.

Mostly entertaining story of Dick Grayson following his old circus family, trying to figure out who is trying to kill him - and why!
New 52 has apparently stuck with the whole "someone's been manipulating the robins into becoming robins" with Jason AND Dick, for some reason. This time it's the Court of Owls which somehow had involvement with Haly's circus in a sort of child trafficking scheme? BC nothing can be simple anymore.
Despite a weird twist ending for a disappointing mystery, I liked most of this. Dick faces his past (sort of) by hanging with the Circus, an old flame, saving people left and right as the train goes across country. I can just barely give them a pass that only some people figure out his identity (bc honestly, why would Nightwing be following HALYS CIRCUS at the same time Dick is? dumb)
