Nightwing Vol. 1: Leaping into the Light

I am not a big comic book guy... until now. I came across this on accident and saw i could read for free on kindle. Gave it a shot on a whim and read the entire volume in one sitting. Fantastic. Can't wait to read the next volumes. The art, the story, all great.

Nightwing has been my favorite superhero for most of my life. I was so sad to have to give up on the series during the Dan Jurgen run, but it was too heartbreaking to see the character so poorly handled. I was hesitant to try again when I heard a new creative team was taking over, but I'm so glad I gave it a chance! Tom Taylor understands Dick Grayson better than most DC writers since the original Chuck Dixon series. This volume includes the complete "Leaping Into The Light" story arc, which was a sort of soft reboot for the series. The very first issue of it already feels like a breath of fresh air and the beginning of a new era. And the story continues to build over the next several issues as Dick Grayson and Barbara Gordon (who is also better in this series than I've seen her written in a VERY long time) navigate through their uncertain future. Without spoiling anything, the main focus of this first story arc is on Dick coming to terms with his recent inheritance and trying to figure out what sort of impact he wants to have on Bludhaven. It reintroduces classic Nightwing villain Blockbuster as well as introducing a few new enemies. And there's an adorable puppy - so what more could you want? Having already collected the single issues, the main thing that prompted me to also invest in this lovely hardcover edition was definitely the art. I can't possibly express just how utterly gorgeous the art in this series is. Bruno Redondo does a fantastic job with every panel, and he makes the characters so expressive you barely even need the dialogue to follow along the story. I don't know who the colorist was for this volume, but they also did an amazing job. The sunsets and cityscapes are so breathtaking; I've never seen Bludhaven drawn to look so quiet and soft before, but I like it. TLDR: I highly recommend this volume! The story is great, the art is beautiful, and Taylor does a great job of getting these characters back to basics. It's certain to be a favorite for Nightwing fans, but I'd also recommend the book to anyone who is just now looking to get into the series. As it serves as a sort of reboot for the story, it's the perfect jumping on board spot for anyone who doesn't want to have to catch up on the previous decades of Nightwing comics.

I read this comic and I was very impressed and touched by the whole concept behind all this just gives you the same vibes as Superman

Do you ever read Batman or Daredevil and feel like they're too serious for their own good? Like damn bro, calm down. Then this is the book for you. I won't go too into depth, just read it. Bask in the tight booty action of Nightwing, and have a light chuckle.

I have been an original Robin fan for most of my life, but the idea that Dick Grayson went on to become Nightwing through later cartoons. I never really bought comics as a young person, so buying them now is a splurge. I like how the frames are colored and the story is interesting. Now I just have to figure out how Dick was shot and other background info.

Nightwing Story is Busy!!!

I have always loved Nightwing. He is practically my favorite hero. This book has such fine detail in the graphics, and an intriguing story. This is a must read.

This run has been such a joy and the absolute best time. I'm very new to comics but this has quickly made me a fan. The art style is amazing too!

With both the art and the story telling you can’t go wrong with this book. It brings Grayson back to basics with him in Bludhaven and he is even joined by members of the bat-family throughout. If you like Nightwing or are a sucker for good comic art, I would suggest picking this one up

Bom produto, chegou em ótima forma.

Nightwing Vol1 de la mano de Tom Taylor y el talentoso Bruno Redondo. Simplemente es un must si eres un amante del personaje o una gran oportunidad si deseas acercarte a esta historia. Este es el compendio de las publicaciones mensuales de la historia Nightwing, desde el numero 78 hasta el numero 83 en el 2021. En esta historia nos enfocamos en un "reset" si se puede llamar asi de Nightwing después de su casi muerte en las historias del comic 50 al 57 y de la trama Joker War del 70 al 77. Volvemos a conocerlo desde un punto de vista mas humano en donde el mismo reconoce como ha llegado al punto en donde esta y donde por giros del destino se le permite tener la oportunidad de hacer un cambio; un cambio que no solo lo beneficiará a el si no también a Bludhaven. Nos introduce a antagonistas como Heartless, Blockbuster y la introducción de Melinda Zucco, la cual da un giro argumental a la historia y que seguramente llevaran a muy buen termino a partir del tomo 91. La historia es interesante, envolviéndotelo poco a poco en sus paginas; pero mas importante aun el arte; algo que de verdad revive a este personaje de una manera tan brillante como no se había visto en mucho tiempo. Ambas llevan claramente mucho corazón; amor a lo que hacen y se nota en cada una de sus hojas; no por nada su lanzamiento en el numero 78, tuvo dos reimpresiones; y el numero 79, una reimpresión siendo casi imposible encontrar ambos tomos disponibles en tiendas de comics por el éxito tan fuerte que tuvieron en sus lanzamientos en físico. Definitivamente un libro que cualquier amante del personaje debe tener; pero también una gran oportunidad para apreciar algunos de trabajos en comics más hermosos del 2021; siendo Bruno Redondo la mejor elección para, como bien dice el titulo de su libro: Llevar a Nightwing a la luz para que todo el mundo lo vea. Si te das la oportuniad de leer esta historia, te garantizo que no te vas a arrepentir.

Perfect
