Biased as a Nightwing fan
Format: Hardcover
I'm a huge Nightwing fan so my review is biased. I loved seeing Nightwing take the lead in a DC book. That role usually goes to Batman, Superman, or Wonder Woman. All played key roles, but the 'leader' of the super heroes were publicly given to Dick Grayson.
