Nightwing #5

I still can't believe that Nightwing actually has a writer again who cares enough about the character to spend a lot of time on a story that takes its time to unfold and has a lot to do and say about Nightwing himself, something that hasn't really been done since Chuck Dixon and Devin Grayson. I can't repeat enough that Kyle Higgins has achieved that. This particular issue almost reads like an episode of Fringe (maybe that was intentional), with a freak of the week adding a new layer to Dick's renewed ties to Haly's Circus, and the many secrets he never realized existed behind its tents.
