About this Collection

This 1997 collection brings together the 'Prodigal' storyline from the Batman titles, following the aftermath of the Knightfall saga. With Bruce Wayne temporarily out of the role, Dick Grayson returns to Gotham to take up the mantle of Batman, while Jean-Paul Valley's unstable tenure as the Dark Knight has left the city in turmoil. The volume collects the issues where Nightwing steps into the cowl, facing off against familiar rogues like Two-Face and the Ventriloquist, as he struggles to prove himself worthy of the legacy.

In "Wings Over Gotham [Prodigal Conclusion]," Robin faces off against the deadly, steel-winged assassin known as Steeljacket in a high-stakes aerial battle over Gotham’s skyline. As the fight unfolds, Dick and Bruce confront the weight of their fractured relationship, leading to a raw, honest conversation that reshapes their bond—Bruce finally admits he sees Dick as a son. With that understanding, Dick returns to his role as Nightwing, and Bruce steps back into the mantle of Batman, hinting at what lies ahead.
