Eu sei que essa fase do Tom Taylor não está agradando todo mundo, mas pra mim tá funcionando bem demais! Eu a-d-o-r-e-i esse início!

Como boa fã da batfamília, eu amo ver todos eles juntos exatamente do jeito que está sendo retratado aqui, e essa fase parece que vai ser muito sentimental, mostrando realmente o grande coração que o Dick Grayson tem, como ele possui valores que realmente transparecem o herói fenomenal que ele é. Estou muito muito animada pra acompanhar essa nova jornada.

Let’s see how many times I can reread this book before I need to return it.

I absolutely loved this comic (although to be honest I haven't read that many D.C. comics yet).
My favorite plotline was obviously Dick Grayson receiving Alfred's money and becoming a billionaire and immediately planning on giving it away/using it to help the people of Bludhaven because in his words "I don't believe any one person should have so much when so many have so little" and "there's nothing heroic about being a billionaire". He is the only billionaire I trust.
But there were so many other things in this comic that I liked:
• Romani Dick Grayson
• Dick talking friends and family about his plans (especially his talk with Superman)
• Superman saying that Dick Grayson was the best role model for Jon
• Dick getting Haley
• Dick/Babs
• The Batfamily group chat – both after Dick got his wallet stolen and after his announcement (I loved Jason’s message)
• The scenes where Dick was telling Barabara he was being accused of murder and the panels when the cops/detectives asked Babs and Dick what "the nature of their relationship"
• And just Dick being Nightwing and genuinely caring about the people of Bludhaven
I also loved the art style.

There were a couple things that I'm still unsure about or didn't like.
The first being Melina Zucco being Dick's half-sister. I didn't really mind most parts of that storyline especially John Grayson helping to hide Melinda's mother, but I guess my biggest issue with this storyline was John potentially cheating on Mary (he did right or am I missing something?). It also felt a little random (but then again this is like my second D.C. comic).
I do also agree that Barbara shouldn't have been given a "miracle cure" or whatever and should have stayed as oracle/disabled.

I'm currently giving this book about 4.5 stars because of the half-sister and Barbara Gordon being able-bodied, but I'm going back and forth between keeping this at five stars or rounding down to four.
