Nightwing Reflects

Nightwing #128

This issue concludes Marv Wolfman's first story arc on Nightwing. This arc was...well...I hate to say it but....it was very underwhelming. I expected a much better debut arc from Wolfman. At least the next arc looks a lot more fun with Bride and Groom. These two villains make their first official appearence in this issue and I look forward to seeing more of them. Albeit, this issue was the best of this arc. And the best of Wolfman's run so far. Nightwing reflecting on his relationships with Barbara Gordon and Startfire was fun to see and it looks like Wolfman is heading the character back to a more stable hero, instead of a hero who is always questioning himself. That version of Nightwing needs to end because, well, he is annoying. I still think Nightwing should return to Bludhaven but oh well.
