About this Collection

This collection reprints the 2005 miniseries that retells Dick Grayson's pivotal transition from Robin to Nightwing, set during his early days striking out on his own in Blüdhaven. Written by Scott Beatty and Chuck Dixon with art by Marcos Martín, the story explores Dick's strained relationship with Batman, his first encounters with Barbara Gordon as Batgirl, and the events that lead him to adopt the Nightwing identity. The volume also features appearances by key Gotham rogues like Two-Face, Killer Croc, and the Penguin, as well as cameos from Superman and the Teen Titans.

"Nightwing Year One, Chapter One: Only Robins Have Wings" kicks off a pivotal origin with Scott Beatty and Chuck Dixon’s sharp storytelling, capturing Dick Grayson’s raw transition from acrobat to hero. Scott McDaniel’s dynamic art, inked by Andy Owens, brings the circus setting to life as Dick dons his first Nightwing suit, while a new Robin begins their training under Batman’s watchful eye—setting the stage for a legacy in the making. Cover by Scott McDaniel and Andy Owens.
