Then in the picks, Chase continues to love Geoff Johns with Action Comics #866, and Blake bids a sad farewell to the comic book version of Justice League Unlimited.

Episode 57: Nightwing

Nightwing 1Getting back to their geek roots, this week Chase and Blake take on the character who has been called the “Axis” of the DC Universe, the most famous sidekick of all time, and the lynchpin of some of DC’s most classic teams. Originally the first Robin, the boy wonder, now the man named Dick Grayson goes by Nightwing. Our guys shell out their favorite Nightwing stories, talk about what the character means to the DC Universe, and Chase makes the most unfortunate slip of the tongue in Showcase history!
