Batwing and Dawn battle Father Lost in the streets of Tinasha! Father Lost’s new powers are proving too much for Batwing and his new ally…time for a last ditch effort that might just get them both killed!
DC's handling of this creative team transition doesn't bode well for the future of Batwing. Fabian Nicieza and Fabrizio Fiorentino don't get to have a proper debut issue, and as a result, we end up getting a rushed and unimpressive first issue from the two. It would be easy for someone to read this and decide the loss of Judd Winick is enough to stop reading. However, I think I'll try to give Nicieza the benefit of the doubt on this one. I like this character and the world that's been created about him. I also know Nicieza is capable of some really good stories. The least I can do is wait this out to see what he can do when he gets to tell a story of his own. Read Full Review
Overall, it's a decent way to end a pretty lackluster arc but most importantly it's a glimmer of hope for issues to come. If these guys are capable of making somethingservic Read Full Review
There's not much that's necessarily "bad" about this issue, but my biggest gripe with the title is that it's quality pretty much falls in the middle. It's not great and it's far from bad. It's just safely cruising in "alright" territory. BATWING had a compelling start with Massacre's story but it has yet to reach that level of greatness again. Overall, it's a decent book and if you're a fan of the character it's worth following. But if you're simply searching for a new title to follow there's absolutely bettercontendersfor your cash.

The Batwing started off as a promising book, relatively new character, good art, world building, but since the start of this arc, I've just felt it has lost it's spark, and this issue just wrapped things up a little to cleanly. My attitude has gone from "Man, this is a surprising title." to just "meh," real quick. It's unfortunate, it really is. This book has gone on for longer than anyone probably thought it would, but I feel as if it's worn out it's welcome a bit, and is working on borrowed time. Again, I don't expect this book to make it past May. Read Full Review
