The bullet that shattered Nightwing's life was the shot fired by the KGBeast in the now-infamous BATMAN #55-and it changed the course of Dick 'Ric' Grayson's career. Gone were the memories and alliances that once defined him, replaced by a near blank-slate persona. Now go inside those early moments of Ric's new life, his strained reunion with a stranger named Bruce Wayne and an entire life turned upside down. But amid the chaos lies opportunity, not for Ric, but for an old foe who's been waiting a lifetime for a moment like this. Echoes of the past return in a story that tees up Nightwing's own Year of the Villain!

Reviews from the web

From AiPT: Dan Jurgens and Travis Moore’s Nightwing Annual reveals the days right after Dick Grayson was shot and his transformation into Ric Grayson happened. This is a perfect missing or hidden issue in the current run of Nightwing and really makes for a nice tie-in piece with DC’s Year of the Villain going on across the comic book line. Dan Jurgens has really breathed some new life into the Nightwing series since taking over with issue #59, so let us take a look at the Annual.

From GeekDad: Honestly, this isn’t a comic that makes Bruce look great. He and Damian (for whom acting like a jerk is nothing new) attempt to repeatedly force Dick into remembering, and an attempt at shock therapy goes particularly poorly. Dick spends more time with Haas, and a memory from his childhood when he spent Thanksgiving with some distant relatives while his parents were still alive holds extra importance – as does a specific book with a familiar bird motif. What starts as a psychological study of a recovering brain injury patient becomes something very different, as we get a better idea of who’s been manipulating Dick all along, and who is invested in making sure he doesn’t remember anything. We said all along that brain injuries don’t work that way, and we may have been right. Jurgens has made this whole era somewhat more compelling, and now it looks like he’s going to bring it home with a major story that will hopefully restore the Nightwing we all love.
