Nightwing #1
In "On with the Show Part 1: Curtain Up," Dick Grayson returns to Blüdhaven with a new mission: uncover the truth behind a city on the brink. As rival gangs tear each other apart, Dick discovers that Spheric Solutions isn't just a security contractor—it's the architect of the chaos, manipulating the violence to justify the deployment of deadly new weapons. Written by Dan Watters and illustrated by Dexter Soy, with colors by Veronica Gandini and letters by Wes Abbott, this first issue sets a tense, grounded tone for a story where the line between protector and puppet is dangerously thin. The cover, also by Dexter Soy, captures the city's uneasy glare with sharp, cinematic detail.
