Batman sends Nightwing to Blackgate Prison, one of the most dangerous locations in the Gotham No Man’s Land, to try to restore order from the psychotic warden, Lockout. But what started as a simple mission for the Dark Knight Detective ends up with Dick Grayson planning a prison breakout and finding himself beaten and broken at the doorstep of Oracle, who happens to be former Batgirl Barbara Gordon. Now as the two old friends question their rekindled feelings for each other, the Huntress returns to create a deadly love triangle.
Plus, Dick Grayson reluctantly takes Tad, also known as Nite-Wing, as a partner-in-training. Will this be the start of a new dynamic duo…or a deadly new adversary? Then, a dying Blockbuster finally makes his move against his greatest enemy…Oracle! Will Nightwing and Black Canary be able to stop Blockbuster and his army of mercenary super-villains? Or is this the end of the Birds of Prey?
The veteran NIGHTWING creative team of Chuck Dixon, Scott McDaniel, and Karl Story are joined by the art duo of Greg Land and Drew Geraci, plus BIRDS OF PREY artist Butch Guice for NIGHTWING VOLUME 5: THE HUNT FOR ORACLE

Dejando de lado los números de No Man's Land (Nightwing #35-39), que prefiero leer y reseñar dentro de su contexto, los números #40-44 son muy dinámicos y entretenidos, y funcionan como base para el punto fuerte del volumen que es le cruce con Birds of Prey. Así, Nightwing #45-46 y Birds of Prey #20-21 (estos últimos incluidos también en el tomo) narran "The Hunt for Oracle", en la que Blockbuster da caza a Barbara Gordon, aunque él no sepa su identidad. Son cuatro números trepidantes, con un guión bastante sencillo, un montón de personajes y escenarios, y un final abierto. Respecto al dibujo, acostumbrado hasta ahora a un Nightwing más cartoon, el dibujo de este tomo se me ha presentado un poco demasiado serio, y en el caso de Nite-Wing, no le pega mucho.
