   A bit confusing
The book only collects the final issues of the series and Zero Year, but you feel like you' re missing out on some important issues related to Dick's identity exposed as Nightwing. This should have been included as it just ends on a lull. I don't buy individual issues so I have no clue what to look for. I think I'm not the only one who feels that way.

   Kyle Higgins has crafted a wonderfully believable Nightwing Story in Five books
The New 52's Nightwing Series is over. In order to understand this book, you need to read another story in which people think Dick is dead. Other reviewers will tell you more about that. I'm going to talk about it. The Nightwing Story in Five books is a wonderfully believable tale. Dick Grayson can't stay in one place as he was raised in a circus. He's in Chicago, he's on the Road with the Circus, he wants to build a permanent Circus in Chicago, he's back in Chicago, but he doesn't feel at home in Gotham. It's the same with his women. If you are going to buy book five, you should have already bought volumes 1 to 4.

   A Fitting End
The final included issue of the first 4 volumes is a prologue to the next Dick Grayson storyline called " Grayson". My rating would have been five stars because I' ve read all of the events that lead up to this volume's conclusion, but the more casual collector may be thrown by the final issue. If you haven't read Trinity War before, it would be difficult to make sense of the aftermath of the DC event. If you are not interested in diving into the larger DC universe, you may need to consult a wiki or two.

   A must read for those following Nightwing's latest series
The run on Nightwing is over. His run has been great despite all the tie ins. It is a must read for those following the run. The last issue was all over the place since it was set up. The book, the story, and the art were great. If you haven't already read the previous volumes, start from the beginning.

   Higgins Kills It
Kyle has a fully realized character, and it shows in everything he writes. Unless you' ve read his run, I don't believe you.

   very good
The book was great. It was nice to say goodbye to Dick Grayson. I hope he will return to Nightwing soon. It seems unlikely.

   A Sad End For Nightwing
I hated the fan- boy fight that ended Nigthwing because it featured some of the best writing in the whole Nightwing New 52 series. The 1996 Nightwing series is both better and the true Nightwing series, if it hadn't been confirmed before. There is a lot missing that could leave the reader confused. Deathstroke, my favorite villain of all time, only appears once in the entire series and it's in a single panel. It was a let down and a tease. Not to mention there's no Rose Wilson.
