A place to discuss comic books of all types, from old to new, Big 2 to indie, and everything in between.
Floppies, graphic novels, compilations, omnibusses (omnibusi?) are all fair game.
There is only one rule:*
Comic Books is a no judgement zone.
You can talk all you want about how Rob Liefeld is trash, Bob Kane is an asshole, or Frank Miller and Dave Sim’s politics have made them toxic, that’s all good.
If, however, another user is LEGITIMATELY a fan of something you don’t like, that does NOT make them a lesser person. Attack the art for being bad, not the person for being a fan of bad art.
* I lied. There are TWO rules... No piracy. Cover shots? That's good. Interior pages, in moderation? Sure. Full books? Links to pirate sites? That's how we get things shut down. :(
I'm not saying it's been a problem, because it hasn't been.

Thoughts on Taylor and Redondo Run?
What are other’s thoughts on this recently completed run? Overall, I enjoyed it, especially the art, even though it had somewhat of a lull before the last arc. Still, it should go down as one of the better superhero runs and it’s the only time I have pulled Nightwing since the 90s Dixon and McDaniels run.
Is this an easy part to step into the Nightwing series? It looks well received, and the synopsis sounds like a reset point.
Are you talking about stepping into the beginning of the Taylor Redondo run? If so, then I would say yes, it is new reader friendly. A few times it touches on what has happened in previous 5–10 years and there are one or two cross-over arcs but I found it very self-contained as I hadn’t read the title since the 90s and wasn’t lost.
Yeah both into Nightwing and his run. I have no prior experience with Nightwing. I would like to branch out a little more into the DC world, and your post sparked interest. But cool, I will add him to my want to read list!
If you are considering branching out, I would also recommend Green Arrow which is about to get a new creator team and street level focus. Just a thought. Enjoy!
I started picking it up when they introduced Haley (Bitewing!) and I regret nothing!
For sure. As someone with a rescue dog as well, that was another fun way to connect to this run. Haley stole the show every time and that was a
