Nightwing #137 - DC


This issue wraps up the Vigilante, Liu and Eddie story-line. Well . . . it doesn't wrap it up entirely. But it does wrap it up for now. I really like what Marv Wolfman is doing with this book. He's so familiar with this character that his insertion in to the creative process was virtually seamless. And now it looks like Jon Bosco will be our regular artist. He's from Noble Causes fame. His action sequences are fantastic. He has kind of a Japanese / Anime type feel to his work. When I first saw him on Noble Causes I thought he was decent. Young, but with promise. But I think his work there, and now here, has helped him progress at a pretty astounding pace. He's doing considerably better with his perspectives and framing. And I'm sorry, but I have to give credit to these fantastic Ryan Sook covers. Anyways, Nightwing and Vigilante end up taking Liu out of the equation. Vigilante would've killed her, but Nightwing saves her. But Eddie is still out there. And you know he's planning on getting Liu back, as soon as she's better. But Vigilante comes to the conclusion that Nightwing still has some baggage, so he's going to end up getting in his way. So he severs their team-up, by knocking out Nightwing. Which really, is fine with Dick, because he didn't exactly see eye to eye with him anyways. But the rest of the stories going to be put on the back-burner, because next issue we start with the mega-story, the Resurrection of Ra's Al Ghul!
