Nightwing #118

Nightwing #118

“Fallen Grayson” concludes with our hero taking on Heartless first as Dick Grayson (publicly shattering his smear campaign) and later as Nightwing. While we get appearances by the Bat-Family and their search for the missing children, most of this happens off panel with the focus of the comic back on its star and the criminal who has attempting to take everything from him. Hell, the baddies even deny Dick getting justice for his parents and shooting Dick’s dog!

Murder in a Small Town - Prized Possessions

“Prized Possessions” provides an interesting twist as Karl Alberg (Rossif Sutherland) investigates the disappearance, and apparent murder, of Cassandra’s (Kristin Kreuk) high-strung friend Emma (Erica Durance). Given that we seen Emma shoot a gun at her husband Charlie (Toby Levins) in the opening tease it’s not hard for us to jump to conclusions as to what occurred suggesting she’s killed her husband and waited to set up a perfect alibi for herself. Picking up on the friction in the marriage, Karl jumps to a similar conclusion. However, the truth turns out to be more complicated.
