I did...thought it was okay but not great. I loved seeing Babs in costume again and some of the flashbacks were pretty funny, especially when Dick and Babs were trapped in the vault (?)

Haven't read a Nightwing book in ages. Back in the Dixon days. I enjoyed the annual. Lots of funny parts. Kinda sad too.

Marv's latest issue had a wtf moment- opening with Dick and a super team of criminals?!?! This guy has ties to every good guy in spandex, and he grabs a bunch of unheard of meta-ruffians?
Post OYL, I've not been impressed with this book. Time to consider the axe.

Marv can write an good opening piece, but his follow through seems to lack that excitement. If this doesn't have a bang for a finish, I'm done.

He writes fun, and that's what always made Dick different than Bruce. His enjoyment of running around in the suit played off his moral code well, making him a more entertaining character.
And Fabe writes fun.
And that issue came out this week 11/15, part of the Ra's ressurection story.

I've been afraid to read it, so its sitting on my nightstand. Is it safe to read Nightwing again? Like Miner says, I've been burned more than a few times by the title.
Rag's art is always a plesure though, I didn't realize he was the artist. Maybe I'll read tonight.

Well Rags is a great artist, but we have Don Kramer filling in this issue. And I still get annoyed when folks draw Dick's gloves like forearmbands...
Robin and Nightwing team up to stop the still unknown graverobber/mad scientist. Sure, we got a name this issue, but it wasn't one I recognized. And neither did Robin.
Generic bad guy, unsatisfying resolution, good interplay between the two heroes. Tomasi seems to want to relate Dick to the DCU. And that's fine, but he doesn't do much to create excitment or energy in the book.
That seems to be my problem with this book since Dixon left. Everyone wants to define Dick. I know who he is- the former Boy Wonder. Let's see him doing amazing acrobatics, give him some wild adventures. Sure, it's fun seeing him play off others, but not at the expense of the action.
