Well I'm at #94, and well..., this might include a few spoilers so:


It started off decent, it was a decent comic, maybe even good, then around Issue #77 Tarantula came into play, now still not too bad and coulda been the start of something good, but by Issue #84(I think thats right) things take a turn for the worse. I mean everything changes over the course of like two issues, I mean Babs breaks up with him for a lame reason, still could live with that, even though Dick was acting out of character and stuff, but then over the next six issues, useless ways to get rid of Dixon's characters appear, then Issues 92 and 93 just completely made it from bad to complete garbage, I mean even Lady Vic's death wasn't too bad, but then the whole everyone's gonna die, they blow up the apartment etc. and then the whole rape scene seems like it was merely for the writer's pleasure, and well man I' just glad I didn't pay for them at this rate, but yeah does it get worse, cuz I can't imagine it getting worse, but yeah and with rumors of Dick not being a vigilante anymore after OYL, I guess Dick is doomed, man if only Dixon coulda stuck around.


Well hopefully Grayson gets a little redemption with Issue #117 due this Feb, with the whole Big Moment in Dick Grayson's life, but knowing Grayson, the big moment'll probably be for the worse.

I thought Grayson's run started off strong, but meandered -- then as she ramped up to issue #100 it started to get good again. If you're only at 94 then, IMO, some of her best stuff is ahead of you.

I love her run. I love everything that is being done with this book and the character under Grayson's run.


There have been a few slow issues but overall I am a big fan. I also don't think Dick has been acting out of character at all.

Alright, so it does get better, so what series, the next one where he hunts Tarantula, then Mob one, or the Deathstroke one? Cus thats it besides Dixon's Year One, and the rest aren't out yet.
