Well it's just hyperbole, Jimmy Boy. We are talking about comic books here so tongue is always firmly in cheek.

That said, I challenge you to name me one writer more important in super hero comics today than Grant Morrison. The man is an absolute genius. A comic god among men. I just can't bring myself to read most things these days after his Batman run and I know I'm not alone.

And if Mr. Morrison isn't back on a Bat-books soon, I fear the worst for their future. Just reading these dreadful previews of what's to come in the next few months is enough to make one want to gag.

I mean, really, how boring was that issue by Denny O'Neil? Oh certainly the art was fine but the writing so archaic and I daresay so 70's. Some people can adapt with the times, some, such as Mr. O'Neil, apparently can't. Then there are those like Grant Morrison who define the time with their work.

But this is a Nightwing thread so please pardon my little aside.

All aboard!

I actually can't believe I bought this issue. The first half was fine - a bit pointless yes - but I enjoyed the dialogue between two-face and Dick. This comic ended when Dick and Debs split up. I don't think iv read a comic that was so blatantly trying to fill pages from there on in. Maybe the story was all used up with the 'bumper' issue last month but really the 2nd half of this comic sucked so badly.

I find it amusing that when I go to this forum nobody liked the issue but when I go to the DC forum everyone seems to love it.

Just had a chance to read it. Wow, this was bad (no matter what they're saying on the DC boards).

I understand that the series is about to end, but this was definitely just filling space. I know, it may have taken care of a couple of dangling plot threads, but they were so minor, I really don't think they needed addressed at all. The only reason I'm sticking with this book now is that it's about to end.

(Btw, when did Dent learn that Nightwing is the original Robin? I don't believe that's public knowledge.)

Maybe the bodies being exhumed and stored in a mausoleum will be heroes-turned-zombie-villains when Blackest Night hits...
