Issue Description

The three former employees of Lexcorp continue their plan to sell the Raptor armor to their client. They realized that it was a radiation leak in the power casing that killed the previous wearer, Jacen Lorens. They plan on putting their 2.0 version to the test before selling it for half a billion dollars.

Nightwing continues to ponder the direction of his life. After coming close to dying a year ago, he had hoped that returning to New York would help him find that direction. He recieves a call that Raptor is back.

Raptor 2.0's progress is being taped as Nightwing arrives to try to stop him. The scientists are surprised to see him alive after having paid an assassin six million dollars to kill him.

Seemingly outmatched, Nightwing manages to twist Raptor's arm as he lets off a blast. The blast penetrates his armor and he goes up in flames and dies.

It is discovered that the explosion didn't kill Raptor but rather a huge amount of radiation from the suit.

The scientist scramble to figure out how to tell their client that they cannot deliver the suit. They soon discover that the client was already aware of he radiation leak. The client turns out to be an enraged Lex Luthor. He is furious that one of his scraped projects was stolen from him. To drive his point home, he blows up the building they were in.

We get a glimpse of Bride, as she has a women tied up and is about to kill her. She wonders how Groom is doing with his kill.

Promo

Following his solo starring roles in Nightwing: Alfred's Return and the September Nightwing 1995 mini-series launched after Grayson's turn under the Batman cowl in Batman: Prodigal, Dick Grayson was rewarded for years of heroic service with his own ongoing series, written by Chuck Dixon and with art by Scott McDaniel, coming off the success of Dixon's Robin (1993) series.

Setting up camp in Bludhaven, a city close to his Gotham City home and twice as corrupt, Nightwing quickly acquired quite a rogues gallery. From underworld boss Blockbuster to the acrobatic Lady Vic to the twisted former cop Torque, Nightwing battled his way to respect in his new town, and the fans took notice.

A hit from the start, Nightwing lasted 153 regular issues, a #1000000 issue, 2 annuals and a special #0.5 issue from Wizard magazine.

As the series came to an end in 2009 with the Death of Bruce Wayne story line running throughout the Bat-family titles, Dick Grayson went on to star as Batman in Batman, Detective Comics, Batman & Robin among others.
