Nightwing #121 - DC

Ok, we're in the middle of the Nightwing / Jason Todd storyline. Jason has been abducted by an ugly alien dwarf, who swallows people up whole and then spits them out in these oxygenated sacks that hold them until they decide to do something with him. Now Dick has to decide whether he really wants to save him or not. Dick has fallen in love with, or is at least sleeping with, this fashion designer Cheyenne Freemont, who also has powers. That's going to be the downfall of that relationship, because Dick is going to try to talk her into being a hero. Anyways they get into an argument and basically destroy his apartment. Then after seeing a "Missing" picture of Jason on his milk carton, decides that he really should do something about this. Dick also has a psychiatrist that he sees regularly, Clancy, who he stops by to run his problem past. You know what he's going to decide, but it was good character interaction. He then starts looking for where Jason may be being held, but of course is being set up by the Pierce brothers. He's calls to warn Cheyenne, who's supposed to have a date with Barry Pierce that night, but of course she shows up at the scene donning a mask and a skin tight Nightwing costume. Dick says, "Town's getting lousy with Nightwings. Top's a little snug on you, isn't it?" Being the newcomer, Cheyenne is immediately swallowed by the alien. It's looks like Dick's going to have to rescue everyone. But then Cheyenne blows him apart from the inside. After which they find out that the alien was the only thing that could get Jason out of the cacoon. Decisions. Decisions. Next issue is supposed to be the last in this story arc, so it'll be interesting to see where all these characters go from here. I'm kinda suprised this book lasted this long, but I'm glad it did.
