Nightwing: The Series (2014)
Fantastic
This mini-series is absolutely amazing. It's great for Batman fans new and old. It's nice to see a fresh take on the Batman universe. The show revolves around Nightwing, the 1st Robin who had a falling out with Batman. Nightwing is an all time favorite who has had very little exposure until now. The plot is the typical Hero's Journey but it works. The acting is 50/50 but lets face it, no one watches this for Oscar worthy performances. People watch this for the action and it really stands out. The fight choreography seems fluent and realistic. Another thing that stands out is the editing. The show has great editing and effects for a web series. Backers from Kickstarter got their money's worth with this one. The show seems like it would fit within the CW hero universe that includes Green Arrow (or just Arrow) and the Flash. Danny Sheperd does a great job playing Dick Grayson. He has that dark side like The Dark Knight but he also has a bit of humor which differentiates the two quite a bit. Speaking of The Dark Knight, the score is very reminiscent of that film. It is also different in its own way. Overall, it's a solid series that is very entertaining and I can't wait for more to come.
