After taking a few months off (the guy just died—cut him some slack), Nightwing returns for one final issue today with NIGHTWING #30, the conclusion of Dick Grayson’s current DC Comics – The New 52 series. Along with putting the period on Dick’s adventures as Nightwing, today’s new comic also helps launch the next chapter in the former Robin’s life, which begins when GRAYSON #1 debuts in early July. This is a big day for Nightwing and Dick Grayson in what may be the most significant year for the character in quite some time.
