Are the critics reading the same book?? I have yet to meet anyone who likes this book except the critics above. The only thing worst than the art is the writing . I like Tim Drake but the glory days of Chuck Dixon, Tom Grumette, and Mike Wieringo are gone and now we got no talent havks

I weep for DC.

This series is as enjoyable as a swfit kick to the jewels.

This book is crap, because of TimBer
What does Tim, see in him?
It’s not because Bernard’s a guy.
I will take anyone else.
Pleeeaaasssee (Please go away), Just make him ple-ease go away (timber), Plleeeaaaaseee (timber)
Wooooah (timber), anyone else (please), wooooah (this book is crap)


Alright one of the first things we see is Rossmo drawing Nightwing……shudders. This comics starts in midst of the search for Bernard and Dick tries to calm Tim down, and Tim slaps his hand away. Now, it’s no secret I’m no fan of Bernard but the way Tim acts here is character regression. He has gone through helping saving people in danger several times, loved ones have been kidnapped before, including Bernard! Tim did show plenty of concern in the past for those put in danger because of him but he always maintained a cool demeanor while on the inside he was filled with self-doubt and guilt. This Tim is a whiny little bitch complaining about everything. Tim, you have saved Bernard before, you’ve saved other from far more dangerous circumstances, you’re more confident than this!

Then Dick starts talking to Tim how it’s always difficult starting a new phase in life…Tim knows this…he’s done it before! Several times in fact. Tim’s keeps doubting himself and how he has “imposter syndrome” about being Robin. My god, he grew past that self-doubt YEARS AGO, this isn’t pushing Tim forward it’s just bringing him backwards.

Then he finds Bernard and someone sneaks up on him again. So much for being trained by Batman, considering how often people keep sneaking up on him.

But then something happens…Tim wakes up and he looks…different. gasp A new artist, that doesn’t draw Tim like a 14 year old with a thumb for a head! Someone splashed some water on his face as he hangs upside down chained up and bruised. And the reveal…GASP THE VILLAIN’S BERNARD!!!

Oh my god! This is SO interesting!! It changes the whole dynamic between them. It make Tim question even more while he’s in the confusing time of his life! Bernard actually has a personality, and is starting to become compelling! And his godawful portrayal of a queer character was all a facade to hide his true intentions. Aaaaaaaannnnnnddd it’s not actually him….it’s an illusion caused by the real villain…James, Tim’s landlord…….

ARE YOU F@#KING KIDDING ME?!?!?!?! YOU HAD SOMETHING GREAT THERE, BUT INSTEAD YOU GIVE US THIS BORING PREDICTBLE PLOT?!?! That means the portrayal of Bernard in all of the previous issues was all genuine. Y’know it’s sad that I have far better and far more nuanced portrayals of queer characters in “The Golden Girls” a sitcom FROM THE 80’S than a comic made in 2023!

Okay…where was I…oh yeah. So while the art is a massive improvement, the writing still sucks. This guy is obsessed with being Tim’s nemesis and throwing all these illusions at Tim. And Tim escapes them by literally throwing up on one of them…..honestly kind of how I feel about this book most of the time.

Then the bad guy reveals his name as “Moriarty”…..wow….how original. You had a decent concept going on here, but leaning into the obsession with detective novels is bringing this down. You’re trying to push this drag Queen version of one of the greatest literary antagonists of all time, and want him to be Tim’s new nemesis. Hate to break it to you Morty, but Tim’s already got The General, Anarky, King Snake, Lynx, The Council of Spiders, Scarab, Jaeager, Johnny Warlock, and plenty of other villains who have more of a grudge with Tim than you.

But then at the final page Rossmo returns to draw Bernard bound up and gaged in chains, like the “perfect damsel” he is. This is one of the most frustrating issues so far….and it is sadly also the best issue so far. more

Story is a mess

Muy mediocre, arte malisimo. Nightwing esta volviéndose estúpido y aburrido, veo porque muchos han perdido interés hasta leerlo gratis y comentar
