Pains me to score this one so low since love Nightwing and I usually enjoy Tim Seeley work but this felt...weak?

So this is the end of seeley's run on Nightwing. While it ramped up and got strong in the middle of his run, the last volume wasn't great and this one is even worse. The Return of Raptor should be fun and exciting but instead came off as dull and boring. Every single moment you can predict as Raptor tries to take apart Dick's life piece by piece till he's in misery. Not to mention Nightwing teaming up with Blockbuster, the new blockbuster, also made no sense. Anyway, it comes down to a big showdown that...isn't all that interesting.

Good: There's a few funny moments here, and I still like the way Tim writes nightwing himself.

Bad: The fights are boring, the story itself is pretty lazy and predictable. The cliche moments with the betrayals is so annoying. Not a good send off for Defacer and her crew. What was with the last few pages?

Overall, a very weak ending to a otherwise pretty enjoyable, if not shaky, run. A 2 out of 5.
