Nightwing #147 – Vol. 2 – 2008
Nightwing #147 – Vol. 2 – 2008 continues the thrilling arc “The Great Leap,” penned by acclaimed writer Peter J. Tomasi, with striking interior art by Don Kramer. This issue sees Dick Grayson — the original Robin, now firmly established as Nightwing — investigating a mysterious series of deaths tied to a shadowy villain with an unsettling connection to the past. As the plot thickens, Nightwing finds himself caught in a deadly cat-and-mouse game that pushes his detective skills and physical prowess to their limits.
This chapter in the Nightwing mythos offers a more grounded, gritty tone, with a strong emphasis on character development and psychological intensity. Nightwing must outthink and outfight an adversary who's as cunning as he is brutal, all while navigating personal demons that still linger from his time in Gotham and Blüdhaven. Tomasi’s storytelling blends action, emotional stakes, and moral complexity, giving readers a deeper look into what drives Dick Grayson to keep fighting, even when the odds are stacked against him.
Don Kramer’s art complements the tone perfectly — moody, cinematic panels capture the tension and movement, especially during stealth sequences and confrontations. The colouring enhances the noir aesthetic, drawing readers into a dark, suspenseful world that feels as dangerous as it is captivating.
This issue is a must-have for collectors of Batman Family comics and fans of street-level superhero storytelling. It’s a showcase of why Nightwing remains one of DC’s most compelling and enduring heroes — not just because of his legacy, but because of the unique way he upholds justice on his own terms.
