    Nightwing #140 is an intense story about how the correlation between the injustice we see occur around and the potential impact on our mental health. Read Full Review

    Geek Dad - Ray Goldfield

    There are segments this issue that are a fascinating commentary on hostile architecture taken to the ultimate degree, but in the end, this is mostly a plot device to drive Nightwing up to and over the line of sanity, as Bludhaven continues to wear him down and he finally strikes back. It’s not as unique as some of the past issues, but it’s no less a brutal read. Read Full Review

    Dan Watters continues to work his magic in making Bludhaven such a character. Bludhaven has never lacked that but there is a certain vibe that Watters, along with artist Denys Cowan, give to the city where you feel it is alive in such a unique way. Read Full Review

    What seemed the darkest moment only gets darker as Nightwing #140 continues to plague the beleaguered hero as more secrets come to light about his city. Such a well-crafted and engaging chapter of a story arc that grabbed on tight with the first issue and still hasn’t let go. Read Full Review

    Nightwing gets some much needed answers but at what cost? Watters unveils his hand with an excellent script. Cowan and the art team double down on the grittiness of Blüdhaven’s latest crimes. This isn’t your average Nightwing story. Read Full Review

    Comic Watch - Theron Couch

    Jul 16, 2026

    “Blüdhaven Lore” has been going on for several issues, and while the super highway is always suggested as a cause for the strange goings-on, nothing firm has been established. This issue solves that problem, delivering the necessary exposition to tie everything together. At the same time, Watters maintains a suspense/thriller vibe that creates tension and urgency. Nightwing #140 is perfectly timed to give this story arc a big jolt. Read Full Review
