Overall this issue of Nightwing looks to be building the foundation of a great story.  The story is intriguing and hopefully it continues to build. There is a danger that this story may fall flat if some of the strings arent tied together in the next few issues, but for now its exciting to see the possibilities of what will happen to Nightwing, and Bldhaven.

This first issue in the Black Panther vs. Deadpool storyline is a good start.  While the Deadpool versus storylines have started to seem a little played out, Kibblesmith has a chance to create a story that could allow the characters really play off of one another.  Using Deadpools ability to break the fourth wall is well done here, and gives a wink to the longtime reader. All of this makes for a good start, and hopefully it will continue as the story progresses.

All in all the new shift to a solo Red Hood who is taking the law into his own hands is an exciting return to form for the character, and this story has some potential as evidenced by this issues last act. Unfortunately the reader needs to get through some filler to get there.

Nightwing #52 seems like a missed opportunity in the Knight Terrors storyline. This is unfortunate, because there seemed to be so much promise here. Instead, Lobdell and Nicieza get caught trying to work with too many plots at the same time. Hopefully, they will begin to tighten things up in the next few issues.
