Nightwing: Year One

Dick Grayson steps out of the shadow of the Bat—and into the legend he was meant to become. Nightwing: Year One captures the moment a young hero discovers the courage to claim his own name. Cast out by Batman and unsure where he fits in a world that’s suddenly too big and too quiet, Dick Grayson sets out on a search for identity that spans the DC Universe. Writers Chuck Dixon ( Robin, Birds of Prey) and Scott Beatty ( Robin: Year One, Batgirl: Year One) chronicle his journey from lost partner to self-made hero as he seeks counsel from Superman, confronts the trauma of the Flying Graysons, and begins to understand that being a hero is something Bruce can neither grant nor revoke. Artist Scott McDaniel ( Daredevil, Batman) brings kinetic motion and bold emotional clarity to Dick’s transformation, capturing the raw vulnerability, explosive acrobatics, and icon-forging moments that define the birth of Nightwing. Together, this team delivers the definitive coming-of-age story of DC’s first Robin—one that reshapes his past, secures his future, and cements why the world needs Nightwing. Collects Nightwing #101–106.
