8. Grayson
Are you a Nightwing fan? Of course you are, who ISN’T? Do you want to read a wonderful Nightwing comic? Then check out the recently concluded Grayson.
It’s basically over now, but it’s recent enough that I’ll stick it on this list. Plus, writer Tim Seeley (whom I love for his Hack/Slash series) will be continuing to write the character in the new Nightwing series.
Grayson is a kickass super spy comic starring everyone’s favorite target of sexual harassment, Dick Grayson. No, seriously, Dick being harassed by every woman around him is a running gag. It’s wonderful. As an agent of dubiously moral spy collective SPYRAL, Dick is under deep cover. Going on international escapades, working with his former friends, and kicking seven kinds of butt, Grayson is an espionage anomaly in the world of superhero books. The kind of comic book you always wanted, even if you didn’t know it.
A bat-book in name only, Grayson is a fresh take on an old character that feels unique and thrilling. Even if it wasn’t about the man with the best butt in comics, I’d still love it. But, I mean, that doesn’t hurt.
