Nightwing #91

A battered but defiant Nightwing charges forward in his torn blue costume, bloodied yet unbroken, while an enormous blade dominates the foreground — its flat reflecting a cold, menacing gaze — and a looming figure grips the weapon from the left against a purple sky swarming with bats. Zircher and Owens deliver a cover that captures the tension of a hero pushed to his limits but far from finished. Part of Devin Grayson's 2004 run, Nightwing #91 promises the kind of gritty, personal stakes that defined Dick Grayson's solo adventures during this era.
