Tomasi is showing more and more that he has long-term plans for this book, and I am more than happy to wait and see how they unfold. He is slowly building Nightwing to become one of the key figures and books of the DCU. In the issue we see Dr. Creighton's plan unfold and see how he is scheming against Talia. I loved Dick's response to the threat from last issue. It shows how he is different than Batman and approaches problems with a different mindset. The scene showed how he still is a young man, and thinks in ways that are more flippant than his mentor. Also, a major development in the current Ra's al Ghul saga occured here, and its great seeing an important event like this occur in Nightwing's book. The art is solid as always, rounding out the package to make an almost perfet comic. My love for Tomasi and crew grow with every issue.
