Nigthwing #57 is available now where all good comics are sold!
Synopsis
Destiny…fate…predetermined inevitability… these are all things that Ric Grayson has struggled to reconcile now that he has been given a second chance at life. A life recently unburdened with years of trauma, defeat and struggle when the hero known as Nightwing was shot in the head. Now, Ric must come to terms with who he is, and what kind of hero he wants to be…if he wants to be one at all. And while Ric is content to walk away from the mantle, one woman has been hiding in the shadows, waiting to solidify an identity of her own…an identity tied for all eternity to the clown price of crime…enter The Joker’s Daughter!
Review
Okay I admit defeat. I enjoyed this issue of Nightwing. I am embracing the story of Ric Grayson. Not fully. But for now at least I am onboard with what writers Scott Lobdell and Zack Kalpan are trying to do.
Rather than following the mould they are beginning to break free from it. With Grayson now aware of his past self we are now witnessing an interesting moral dilema for the character.
Does he:
A) reject his past and fully embrace the Ric Grayson persona?
B) reject his current state of mind and try to emulate the man he was before in the hope his memories return?
Seeing him grapple with these choices is something which interests me. It goes beyond the simple notion of wh owill be Nightwing going forwards .It trascends all of the previous few issues development of the vigilante gang and instead takes a quick look at the actual mental state of the Grayson character.
But this is still a comic so, of course, there is plenty of other action going on. I thought it was interesting to bring Joker’s daughter back in to continuity. If I’m not mistaken this is the first time we’ve seen her in the Rebirth-era.
Though her appearance is fleeting it sets up an interesting story going forwards. I’m intrigued to know what made the writers choose her as the villain for this arc. Bludhaven has been lacking some good villains, it’s about time Nightwing developed some of his own.
This issue feels very much like a new beginning. Ric has a new romance, a new purpose and now a new villain to face. So this issue very much lays the groundwork for what is to come. In that respect it is, at times, a little plodding but the bigger moments outweigh this well.
My highlight moment was the brief appearance by Babara Gordon and her conversation at the bar with Bea. It was funny and heartfelt an dreally portrayed everyone’s love for the Grayson character well. We’re all grieving the character he was and Bea helps us face up to that.
Verdict
This issue is something of a step forwards for Nightwing. Whilst the Ric Grayson arc continues I’m glad to see it venturing in to new territory and trying something new with its story.
6/10

Our friends at JustJared are back with another gallery of photos from the set of Birds of Prey.
Margot Robbie has been been back on set filming what appears to be some kind of explosion sequence. In videos shared on social media the character is seen ducking out of the way of a truck as it busts through a huge set of gates.
Harley being Harley the whole sequence is followed by a huge explosion which she appears to revel in. In these pics we get to see the aftermath of that moment. The look of fiendish glee on her face is truly terrifying!

Warner Bros. has given Aquaman fans something to look forward to. Late last night Warner Bros. announced that the upcoming sequel has found itself a release date.
Following the huge success of 2018’s Aquaman there was no doubt that a sequel would be top priority for the studio. With over $1bn in the bank it was all-but guaranteed we would be seeing Jason Momoa return to Atlantis.
Now we know that Aquaman 2 will be hitting cinemas on December 16, 2022. Whilst that seems like a way off fans will remember there was a four year wait between The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises.
No news yet on whether James Wan has officially signed on to direct the sequel. The director has previously stated with a good script in place that he would be happy to return to the DC Films universe.

ORIGINAL STORY: It’s been a long wait but finally the second trailer for Dark Phoenix has arrived!
Following plenty of teases and a poster leak we now have a more in-depth look at a couple of scenes from the upcoming final Fox-X-Men movie. Check it out in the player below.
In Dark Phoenix, the X-Men face their most formidable and powerful foe: one of their own, Jean Grey. During a rescue mission in space, Jean is nearly killed when she is hit by a mysterious cosmic force. Once she returns home, this force not only makes her infinitely more powerful, but far more unstable. Wrestling with this entity inside her, Jean unleashes her powers in ways she can neither comprehend nor contain. With Jean spiraling our of control, and hurting the ones she loves most, she begins to unravel the very fabric that holds the X-Men together. Now, with this family falling apart, they must find a way to unite – not only to save Jean’s soul, but to save our very planet from aliens who wish to weaponize this force and rule the galaxy.
Dark Phoenix is being directed by Simon Kinberg. James McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence and Michael Fassbender are confirmed to return to the roles of Charles Xavier, Mystique and Magneto respectively. Sophie Turner, Tye Sheridan, Nicholas Hoult, Alexandra Shipp and Kodi Smit-McPhee will also return.
The film is due for release on June 7, 2019.

Fans are continuing to eagerly await the second trailer for the upcoming Hellboy reboot. But whilst the studio remains coy about when we’ll see more footage we do have some very exciting news for fans.
It’s been announced by the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America to us outside the US) that the Neil Marshall directed movie will be rated R. This high rating is due to “strong bloody violence and gore throughout, and language.”
According to the website for their UK equivalent (the BBFC) we don’t yet have a rating. A R-rating could translate to an 18 here or it could be a 15. Watch this space and we’ll let you know as soon as the film is classified.
It's what we deserve. Neil Marshall's HELLBOY: Rated R for strong bloody violence and gore throughout, and language…and because they advertised it as "Legendary AF."
