Nightwing has saved New York City from Two-Face, but that doesn't mean that he's saved himself or that Two-Face is through with him. Nightwing will be forced to confront the madman in Arkham Asylum then face dire changes to his personal life.

    Its a shame this series is ending so soon. I know the character Nightwing will continue to show his face in other series but unfortunately its without Peter Tomasis amazing characterization. And thats what makes me very sad about this series cancellation. But I am thankful we have this awesome run on Nightwing to re-read in the future. Read Full Review

    Nightwing #151 was an impressively crafted read. Tomasi treats the reader to wonderful character work and dialogue. This issue properly winds up and concludes several of the plotlines from Tomasi's run on this title. This issue is just another reason why I wish that DC was not canceling Nightwing and would allow Tomasi to work his wonders on Dick Grayson's character. Read Full Review

    If you don't have a problem watching a writer and two different artists deliver unconnected snapshots of disparate threads from said writer's run, than you might not have as many problems as I had with this issue. There are certainly a couple of good scenes here, and the Two-Face/Dick confrontation in particular is extremely well executed. I just prefer my comics to make a better effort to deliver a unified narrative. Read Full Review

    All in all, this book is a good solid read -- a nice breather for Batfans and Wingnuts who have been put through a ringer or two with the storylines in the Batverse over the past half year. This issue, like others in Tomasi's portfolio, offers a great sample of his understanding of, and adeptness writing, the DC Universe. Given what I've seen here and in other Tomasi-penned titles, "Batman and the Outsiders" ought to be a good, solid read. Read Full Review
