DC has released a new look at Nightwing's landmark 300th issue. Dick Grayson has had a storied career at DC, working his way up from Robin, Batman's Boy Wonder, to the crimefighter of Bludhaven known as Nightwing. Of course, you also have to factor in Nightwing's short stint as Batman when Bruce Wayne was lost in time and thought to be dead. After the "Death of the Justice League" and the Dawn of DC, Nightwing has been the standout hero leading the Titans. Nightwing won the Best Continuing Series and Best Cover Artist at the 2023 Eisner Awards, and 2024 is keeping the momentum going this spring with Nightwing #300.
DC released its April 2024 solicitations, which include Nightwing #113, which also holds the legacy numbering of Issue #300. Written by Tom Taylor, Nightwing #300 will have various artists join the scribe for a story that teases something entirely new for Dick Grayson. Fans have seen him as an orphan, as Robin, a Teen Titan, Justice League member, and leader of the Titans. But DC has something else entirely planned for readers in April that the publisher is keeping a secret.
