“I really enjoyed the Nightwing books from the mid to late 90’s. They were quick, smart, and they had great art by Scott Mcdaniels that gave the books their own feel. The whole point of them was that it would be hard to get out from under the shadow of Batman. Especially in those days because his cape was goddamn majestic.
The relaunch…it’s like we’re back to Nightwing being Batman Jr. And more than that, he’s totes fine with it.
Also, he now owns a circus? And tours with said circus, fighting crime in whichever city the circus finds itself in?
Maybe that’s why it doesn’t feel at all grown up. It’s a guy living in a train, owning a circus, and fighting crime. Basically a collision of all my pre-adolescent fantasies.”
