"Nightwing Must Die: Part One," by Tim Seeley and artist Javier Fernandez, is a comic that I have enjoyed more than the rest these past few weeks. Being that I am a fan of Nightwing, it does make me a bit biased, but I think others will agree with me that it is a great comic. Even though I get a bad vibe from Shawn, it is always nice to see the hero with someone that makes him or her happy. One of my favorite parts is Robin looking at his Twitter feed about Nightwing and himself. I wasn't expecting Robin to be a main part of this comic, but it was a good surprise. He didn't come off as that kid that Dick thinks he is. When he comes to find Dick, he wants to help and thinks that he can help.

One thing that makes me really like a comic is a cliffhanger. The ending that this comic has is going to lead to another great comic. There are a lot of unanswered questions that come from this comic, which I hope to get answered in the next one (when it comes to a new comic I'm not the most patient person). I'm sure that even if the next comic gives us the answers to these questions, there will be more questions that need answers in the next one.

The Verdict: I did enjoy this comic and would recommend it to anyone that likes Nightwing and or is looking for a new comic to read. There are questions that need to be answered and I am looking forward to finding out those answers (even if those answers might lead to a death of a character).

“Return of Wally West Now You See Her: Part Four,” by Dan Abnett and artist Brett Booth, starts off with my complete interest. Even though it's clique, taking the women that the hero loves, it's still makes a great concept. The way that comics are these days too, you really never know if the hero's girl is going to survive or not. It doesn't matter anymore if the character is a main character or not. No one is safe when it comes to being killed off anymore.

This comic also makes me hope that one day, we'll see Kadabra on The Flash. I feel like he would be a great character to see come to life. I've always been a fan of Dick Grayson, so seeing him as a leader and making sure everyone on his team is calm and in a mind set to get Linda back is great to see. Bruce would be proud to see him like this. I'm looking forward to seeing what the next comic brings, if Wally can save Linda or if he will be too late. Kadabra is definitely not making it easy on him, not that anyone would think that he would go easy on Wally.

The Verdict: This is a great comic that has a little bit of everything. It has action, team work, and a great villain that likes to play mind games. I am looking forward to the next issue and seeing what is going to happen to all the characters in this comic, especially Linda (considering the circumstances she's in at the moment).

“Better Than Batman: Part 4,” by Tim Seeley and artist Javier Fernadez, is an issue that you do not want to miss. It is filled with action, characters we love, and much more. We see Nightwing and Raptor teaming up, perhaps for the last time, to defeat this mutant creature in the labyrinth. It may be the final time that they are teaming up together, but it will not be the last time that we see Nightwing and Raptor in the same comic. Raptor reveals that he knew Dick's mother, which we can bet Dick is going to want to know more about. Even though Dick cannot find anything on Raptor in the databases, I'm pretty sure that he's going to find a way to locate Raptor and get that information. If not, Raptor might find Dick (but, most likely, for different reasons).

It is nice to see Dick and Bruce together, even if it is Bruce lecturing Dick about how he let Raptor get away. Even though I like Nightwing on his own, I do like Nightwing and Batman teaming up and fighting crime side by side. And, of course, it wouldn't be a Nightwing comic if there weren't jokes thrown in every now and again. I am curious to see what Dick is going to find out about Raptor and how close he's going to get to him, before Dick finds out that he's being deceived. I am also curious to see how Raptor knows Dick's mother and if Dick will find out before or after he finds out that Raptor is tricking him.

The Verdict: This comic has a little bit of everything and has a handful of characters that we know and love. It leaves us with a few unanswered questions, which I hope we will be addressed in the next issue.
