It’s a fight for the soul of the city! Now that Dick Grayson has inherited more money than he could possibly need, he has an idea on how he can help the city with it-and it’s time for him to announce it to the world! But with Blüdhaven's so beyond saving, what idea does he have that could possible save it? Meanwhile, an unexpected figure comes into play with a plan to buy the city (and all the power that goes with it) from Blockbuster. Things are about to get messy for new public figure Dick Grayson, but maybe he can enlist some help from his “friend” Nightwing!

    This new creative team's first arc concludes, and it is a smash hit! This is a great example of what DC's Infinite Frontier should be about: embracing character and history. Dick Grayson once again feels like an important character, even when outside the costume. The love and adventure appear while entertaining all types of fans! Read Full Review

    No company is putting out a better book than Nightwing right now. The creative team hasn't been on the title for a year yet, but it's already shaping up to be the definitive run on the character. This is a special series that's redefining expectations for Dick Grayson and how great DC comics can be with the right team in place. Read Full Review

    But Why Tho? - William J. Jackson

    Aug 17, 2021

    All in all, Nightwing #83 reads like an ensemble cast spinning around Nightwing, a brilliant neo-noir tapestry expanding from a hero who has long deserved this sort of front and center attention. Hopefully, Barabara remains forever and the Zucco drama gets even more convoluted. Read Full Review

    Why am I crying right now? Because Nightwing is one of the best books out right now. I keep saying this month after month, and each time I pick up a new issue I think no way can this top last month" and then it does. Read Full Review

    COMICON - Scott Redmond

    Aug 18, 2021

    Nightwing's first arc of the Infinite Frontier era has come to a close and the former boy wonder is in truly great hands as the book has brought Dick Grayson back to the levels he's meant to be within the DC Universe. Truly a gorgeous, heartfelt, emotional, surprising, and just all-around fun book that retains a serious/sharp edge to it with the threats and real-world issues faced. Read Full Review

    The Super Powered Fancast - Timala Elliott

    Aug 17, 2021

    Redondo uses a detailed modern drawing style that focuses on character expression and form. This is highlighted by the bold color work of Lucas. The result is a visually appealing issue that is both exciting and emotionally engaging. The action panels are top notch, and the content heavy scenes are impactful. I found this to be a well crafted and transportive edition. Read Full Review

    Comic Book Revolution - Kevin Lainez

    Aug 22, 2021

    Tom Taylor, Bruno Redondo, and Adriano Lucas work perfectly together to tell a wonderful, can't miss story in Nightwing #83. Everything that takes place in this issue carries a sense of importance. Taylor, Redondo, and Lucas have truly created something special with their Nightwing run thus far that fans of superhero comics should not miss out on reading. Read Full Review

    Nightwing #83 continues to be the best ongoing book that DC publishes, in my opinion. I wait with great anticipation for each upcoming issue! Could we have gotten a better first run out of this creative team?? Id bet not. Cant wait for issue #84 Read Full Review

    With its first arc finished, Taylor'sNightwing is proving to be a stand out book. It's a must-read for any fan of The Boy Wonder or the Bat-Family in general. I'm excited to see what else is on the way from Taylor, Redondo and Lucas when it comes to Dick Grayson and his world. Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Jim Werner

    Aug 17, 2021

    Nightwing #83 is an excellent issue that has me back on board the Nightwing trolley where I belong.  Bruno Redondo's art is great as usual, but it was Tom Taylor's shift from trying to prove that Dick Grayson is a great guy to just showing me the character I have loved for that very reason.  I can't wait for the next issue!

    Dark Knight News - Steve J Ray

    Aug 17, 2021

    There's a typo on page 20 that bugged me, which is why this comic is only close to perfect. Yes, I know that's harsh, but when you have a diamond, even the slightest flaw can reduce its value and allure. Either way, I would still recommend this issue – heck, this entire run – as must read to anyone who'll listen. Read Full Review

    GWW - Brian Villar

    Aug 17, 2021

    The series is great and this issue helps bridge the many subplots that have been introduced. Having similarities to Hawkeye hasn't deterred from the overall story as both are different. This issue is what sets it apart as we see Dick start becoming who Alfred always knew he could be. Read Full Review

    Batman-News - Michael Escalante

    Aug 17, 2021

    Nightwing #83 is the strongest issue of the series so far. While the book lays on the schmaltz more than my taste can handle at times, there's no denying the high level of craft on display. I personally find myself unconvinced by the larger social themes Taylor plays with, but the book's heart is in the right place and that's enough for now. Fans of the series to this point will not be disappointed. Read Full Review

    This issue leans heavily into the sheer fun of the Bat-Family and Nightwing's superhero friends, and I love that sort of thing. Big changes are afoot and I can only hope this series can pay them off nicely. Read Full Review

    Bleeding Cool - Hannibal Tabu

    Aug 29, 2021

    This issue is really, really good. Conceptually, it's either one of the best ideas in superhero comics in decades or possibly another red herring. Either way, there is a lot to like about this bold, "focused" book that really understands the assignment. Read Full Review

    Forces Of Geek - Lenny Schwartz

    Aug 19, 2021

    The writing by Tom Taylor is pretty excellent. The story is smart and moves quickly. The art by Bruce Redondo is pretty damn well done as well. I love this book and it only seems to be getting stronger with each passing issue. Read Full Review
