I’m going to keep praising the art

Another month, and another month where I wonder where the good writer I was told Dan Watters was? Seriously, the comic has good art, good colors, look, he brought in a cool villain, and...... nothing. Nightwing doesn't do anything, Bryce and the lesbian cop get all the attention. The main "plot" develops so slowly that sometimes I wonder if it even exists. Please, a new writer, and it doesn't even have to be someone big. An Ed Brisson would do just fine.

I personally don’t like the art. I think the problem is that watters is writing to his perception of the artists strengths and not his own strengths. The book just doesn’t work.

I'm a huge Nightwing fan but this series just keeps getting more painful to read. The dumb concepts were bad enough but all the Killer Moth "jokes" made me physically cringe.
