Nightwing #73
In "Son of the Joker!", Nightwing #73 delivers a pulse-pounding twist as Batgirl wakes bound in a cage, forced to watch as the Joker stages a grotesque spectacle with Dickyboy—Ric Grayson—on the line. With Punchline and her crew ambushing Gotham's heroes at Alfred Pennyworth Children's Hospital, the stakes rise in a deadly game where legacy and madness collide. Written by Dan Jurgens and brought to life by Ryan Benjamin’s dynamic art, with inks by Richard Friend, colors by Rain Beredo, and letters by AndWorld Design, the issue’s cover by Travis Moore captures the chaos in bold, unsettling detail.
