Dick Grayson a.k.a. Nightwing has a had a relatively quiet month in Blüdhaven since his buddy, the Flash ran through town. It’s been a welcome respite from the kidnapping and recovery of his girlfriend as well as an uncomfortable glimpse of the multiverse, courtesy of Dr. Simon Hurt. However, things are about to go to hell in “the Blüd,” because Blockbuster is back!
Nightwing # 22 kicks off a new storyline about Blockbuster’s return, and in CraveOnline’s exclusive preview, Dick discovers why it’s been so quiet on the crime front. One of the invading gangs is using weapons that may be alien in origin, and those devices have given them a decided advantage in a war over territory with another gang. Can you guess who’s gonna be in the crossfire?
