Summary: A meeting on a Bludhaven rooftop hours after Dick's building is destroyed in Nightwing #98.
Archivists' Comments: Wow. Ohwowohwowohwow. This "missing scene" of sorts not only makes sense of what's happening to Nightwing lately, but gives us perserpective AND closure. Now that is good writing. Even if you have no idea what I'm talking about, read this. Just for the writing.

Summary: Pilot episode - "Awakening" - of Jared's "Batman: Avenger" screenplays. When Bruce Wayne, former vigilante goes ballistic and begins killing would-be civilians, the present day Gotham Police Department calls in Dick Grayson, Batman�s former apprentice, to help them track him down.
Archivists' Comments: Suspenseful, intriguing, and original. Being only the first installment, this saga is definitely one of the most interesting. The script format of it also sets this rather chilling Elseworld apart from the rest.

Summary: The Scarecrow's thoughts on Valentine's Day.
Archivists' Comments: I still get chills reading this. Santanico just "gets" villains, able to get into their heads and delve into their souls...or lack of souls (you choose). This story is no exception and is packed with both beautiful imagery and perceptive metaphors of...well, you'll just have to read and find out, won't you?

Archivists' Comments: GAH! I cannot say enough about this fic - it may look short, but it packs a powerful punch...and not in the way you might think. Santanico produces a beautiful piece here, delving into a relationship that isn't touched on enough in the comics. Read. This.

Summary: Dick knows he has to tell Bruce about what happened with Blockbuster, but Bruce has his own baggage to deal with.
Archivists' Comments: *lets out low whistle* This is a must-read for anyone who's been following the events of the Nightwing comic (#85-99ish). This is a much-needed look into the hows and whys of recent events. If you aren't reading the comics, read this anyway, just because it's that good.

Summary: We seem to think some things are worth the risk of pregnancy. What does Steph think of going through it alone?
Archivists' Comments: Yes, J'F, this is a vignette. :) And a good one at that. Stephanie Brown deserves more credit than she's given in the comics, and the author of this sweet little diddy has done just that.
