Nightwing #22

From writer Kyle Higgins and artist Will Conrad, this New 52 chapter of "Showtime" puts Dick Grayson's most personal vendetta front and center. The cover by Brett Booth and Norm Rapmund crackles with kinetic energy — Nightwing lunges forward in his red-and-black suit, escrima sticks blazing, while ghostly echoes of his past selves and a suited figure tumble through a shattered environment around him, all underscored by the pointed declaration that he's going up against the man who murdered his parents. It's a visually charged setup that promises one of the more emotionally weighty confrontations in the series.
