Nightwing continues to struggle with his recent woe--why can't he leap, and what's causing it? And Batman continues his investigation into it; is he any closer to figuring out the root of this new dilemma before there are some serious consequences? Plus, part two of the period saga! Around seven centuries ago, the Grayson name was born. A child of the Black Death. The story of revenge reaches its epic conclusion.
Interestingly enough, Nightwing #112 is told from a character's POV that isn't Dick Grayson, but I think that's what makes it so good. We see how other viewers view the character, and they boost his worth up that way. Read Full Review

Tom Taylor is wrapping up his run on Nightwing with the next arc, which will give him one of the longest and most defining runs on the character. So before he delves into the psychological block Dick has been dealing with, he's doing a short, much more character-driven arc that explores the complex bond Bruce and Dick have. Read Full Review

Nightwing #112 is yet another example of what has made this series consistently one of the best comic books DC Comics publishes on a monthly basis. Tom Taylor and Sami Basri nail what makes the dynamic between Batman and Nightwing special. Their chemistry makes you further invested in them both as individuals and as father-son. By the end we get another story that further showcases why Nightwing is a top-tier hero. Read Full Review
Another fun issue teaming up Nightwing and Batman, which will always make happy. Read Full Review
Ahead of his impending exit from Nightwing, Tom Taylor feels particularly contemplative as he explores the relationship between Dick and Bruce. The results are a heartfelt story which reminds us just why we fell in love with the former Boy Wonder. Read Full Review
Lucky for Tom Taylor, I really love the relationship Bruce has with his sons. Sometimes it feels like Batman doubts the positive influence in the lives of the boys he takes in. Stories like these remind me and readers like me that Batman is a still a great mentor. Also, there aren't many issues with Sam Basri's artwork. On the other hand, there are several convoluted issues and flaws with this story. For example, Loc's illogical plans are either sloppy or stupid. Enjoyment of these two issues will depend on how forgiving readers can be about the tragedy of the Khalid family. Otherwise, it's a simple heartwarming tale about a father's bond with a pointless backup. Read Full Review
As it stands, Nightwing #112 is a classic comic book tale of yesteryear that's been overwritten to the point where the positivity and optimism run in the face of an otherwise great story. It's too overt. Read Full Review
Nightwing #112 ends a two-part mystery with some heart, no Heartless, and a lot of filler. To be fair, Nightwing actually punches a bad guy, but this mystery is more predictable filler than anything else. Read Full Review
Just sailing by is the current mood of Nightwing with issue #112, due to a lack of interest in exploring new avenues and missing creators. There is little on any storytelling front that helps to justify this narrative pitstop between the books endgame, and not even the art or coloring can save the story. The expressions and human emotion scene-to-scene works thanks to consistent pencils and gorgeous pops of coloring, but the action or investigation lacks any sense of momentum or heft. It is a shame that Nightwing, the title, has reverted to this sense of safe storytelling after delivering the strongest story in years. Read Full Review
Healthy relationships? In comics??!
Great issue, cool seeing the external perspective from Batman.
Always love to see Dick and Batman teaming up
Nightwing #112 picks up right where the previous issue left off, with Batman & Nightwing hot on the trails of a missing boy. Batman also learns about Dick’s mysterious inability to perform his signature aerial feats. The issue comes w/ a surprising narrative choice: Batman/Bruce as the primary narrator.
While it is definitely a choice to have someone other than Dick narrate his own book, Tom Taylor does leverage this in smart and unique ways. We see a surprising amount of emotional depth from Bruce, albeit within the confines of his own head. Bruce wouldn’t be Bruce if he ever let his emotions show on his sleeves! Beyond that, there is also an acknowledgement of Bruce’s own shortcomings as a hero & father figure, which he more
We get it Tom Taylor; Nightwing is a pure person who will do anything to protect a child. Get on with the real story (Heartless) already.
filler, and it's not even a good one
