I’m not surprised. It’s just been so limp since Black Canary and Gail left. I tried to like it, but I’ve mostly been indifferent. The surprise is it seems to be tied into Batman: RIP as both Nightwing and Robin are being cancelled at the same time — why is this surprising you ask? Because BoP hasn’t been considered a Batman family book for a couple of years now.
I’m guessing there will be some sort of rework or relaunch for the involved characters after the RIP fallout, but in some sense, I’m relieved. I’ve been stepping back more and more from comics, and this is just one more I can let go. My fan heyday is over. It was a fun ride, but it’s good to move on.
