Sinestro Corps War was good but I cant say I was a fan of the rest of his run

@reignmaker: a whole lot of DDs villians were "sloppy seconds" from spiderman especially silver age. just sayin

I reveal that I absolutely do not care what is in store for this character unless its his death

First of all this is an amazing idea for a recurring article! Second you have started with a fight that I have always wanted to see! This is an extremely tough decision. Matt has his radar sense, other heightened senses, mastery of using his billy club, acrobatic prowess, training under stick, and experience fighting against very talented fighters. Dick on the other hand has his extensive training with batman, acrobatic mastery, is easily one of the most talented hand to hand fighters in the DCU, and has a very wide assortment of tech in his arsenal. As far as the assumption that DD would be more brutal than NW goes that is really a matter of how a writer portrays the character. In the recent past Dick has been portrayed as showing more aggressive tendencies such as in his night of the owls crossover and also in the final story arc of volume 2 of his series where he lays the smack down on two face. On DDs side of things he has carved a bullseye into bullseyes head with a rock so I would say they are about even in brutality with matt only taking a very slight edge. As far as the idea tha Dick would detect matts blindness during the fight I think its very possible but it would take him a little bit so that shouldn't be used as an automatic assumption of NWs victory. In the end my knowledge of both characters puts them at a draw with with both having such similar aspects apart from DDs powers and NWs tech which I believe would cancel each other out. However in an aspect that no one has pointed out the most fun part of this fight would be seeing these two make jokes at each other:)

Batgirls action was good but not as epic as the last issue

Man every one who is hating on this show needs to chill out. As has already been stated before THIS IS A KIDS SHOW. I personally am not so up tight about the maturity level of cartoons and find this show very fun to watch. This episode was good but my favorite is still the daddy trigon one :)

As far as this being the reboot of the reboot that is extremely unlikely. DC would not be doing story arcs like batman year zero if it were going to be immediately reversed. Also I just like everyone else who loved the character want damian to return but bringing him back via this event would be a horrendous story

@DarklyDreamingDeadpool me too! those two are such interesting characters I'm glad i stepped out of my comfort zone and gave them a try

I am very apprehensive about this arc call me closed minded but I am very against major changes to the origins of my favorite characters. Its so hard to keep up with the bat family timeline in the new 52 due to the fact that they chose to keep most of the pre-existing history yet at the same time mix in stories from an earlier time period. In the end snyder has some writing chops so he might not bring blasphemy to the batman legacy but frank miller he is not

This issue was amazing! Nightwing shines best when hes on his own with only the occasional bat family team up. @BatWatch Nightwing was blinded by prankster momentarily (don't think thats too bad of a spoiler since its on the cover) gets smacked around a little bit while he's disoriented and stumbles into his last page predicament.
