"Did Not Shoot the Deputy" part 1! It's an all-out throwdown between Nightwing and Tarantula as Dick Grayson tries to bring in Bludhaven's newest vigilante for the murder of Chief Redhorn!

    This issue spends roughly half of its time offering up a running battle between Nightwing & the new Tarantula. Now the action is certainly fast paced, and we do learn a somewhat interesting bit of information about Tarantula, and the rather questionable people she's chosen to ally herself with (though I suspect her alliance is a ruse, and that she'll reveal her true colors at the opportune moment). However, the simple fact of the matter is that watching two characters bounce around for close to ten pages of doesn't make for a riveting reading experience. Having their battle cut up with the injection of a couple subplots didn't exactly help the overall flow of this display of agility, as in addition to being a rather monotonous exchange, it is also saddled with numerous starts & stops, as well as a rather unrewarding finish. Still the idea that Blockbuster is making his return to these pages has me quite excited, and it's also nice to see the mentally unstable Tad is back in the picture Read Full Review
