I thought vol. 2 was a real step up from Nightwing, Volume 1: Better Than Batman. I also really enjoyed the art by Marcus To a lot more than Javier Fernandez's (vol. 1).The reason why I love Nightwing, in general, is his heart. That was missing a bit from vol. 1...It's OK for your character to be a bit lost, it's not "OK" to lose touch with your character's development. It's not that I need to see Dick struggle to make it a good Nightwing book, I just like the equal page time for both Dick
I can't quite put my finger on what makes this such a blah series for me but I think it's because, similar to Batgirl, this doesn't feel like Dick Grayson. It feels like Tim Seeley took Rebirth as an opportunity to just reboot Dick's entire personality. Again, if this is your introduction to Dick Grayson, this is probably fine. If you're like me and threw yourself headfirst into Nightwing lately, this series is 3 things:1. Charmless2. Boring3. BafflingI don't understand what's going on here.
There's a lot that I like in here. It was about time that Dick got out of Gotham and back to Bludhaven. He simply isn't needed in Gotham, and getting him out of the shadow of Batman, Batwoman, Batgirl, Robin, Red Robin... It's necessary for the character, and it's a better and more sustainable move than working undercover as a spy. I like Dick going into social work, though there's a few truly hysterical mentions of Dick "draining" his savings. The notion that Dick Grayson, Bruce Wayne's oldest
Bludhaven sounds much darker and scarier than it is.
Really liked this one, it had some great development and loved the little cameos. Not 100% sold on the romance plotline which felt like it had little development but it's a comic so i'll give them a pass
Mediocre story about Dick once again finding his place in the world. Somewhat predictable and above all... FUCKIN' BORING! I had higher expectations about this title but as it seems i'm probably bailing out of it. *The extra star was because of the fine art and the well-put cliffhanger at the end...

Way better!World: The art is good, I like the character designs and lines (reminds of Albuquerque light, especially the eyes). The world building is also fantastic, this new Bludhaven is great and the idea of setting it apart from Gotham with it being Vegas is pretty good fitting the trapeze artist that Dick is, I'm enjoying it. The pieces we get this time around with the job and the advertising was both good and bad, giving Dick a job is great, the advertising stuff was choppy. Overall I reallyI thought vol. 2 was a real step up from Nightwing, Volume 1: Better Than Batman.
