Summary
Dick Grayson used to know what his life would look like. He'd be flying through the air, or up on the high wire, impressing adoring crowds with spectacular feats, but that all fell apart, all at once.
That was ten years ago, and Dick is happy to spend his time hanging out with his little brother or fostering a crush on Barbara, his best friend in the whole world. Despite living with the richest man in Gotham City, his days are ordinary, stagnant, and he still has no idea what to do with his life.
But there is talk on the wind of something dangerous, a miracle liquid seeping from the earth, the madness it brings. The rumors spread like wildfire as the news gets worse and the city descends into chaos.
The world is ending.
Everything is going to change soon.
Left alone and grieving in a crumbling world, he embarks on a journey to find the only person he has left, and along the way, he might discover why the world needs its heroes.
This is the way the world ends

Summary
While on the trail of a serial killer terrorizing Blüdhaven, Dick Grayson runs into a pair of mysterious strangers who claim to have knowledge of the unknowable forces that have been lurking on the edges of reality, beings from another world that feed on suffering and turn men into monsters. These Fears have been haunting Dick since he was a child, hungering and waiting, and they are almost ready to strike. Gotham City is about to become ground zero for a crisis unlike anything they have seen before.
As the city, the people he loves, and his own sense of reality begin to warp, and the end of the world seems closer every day, Dick will need to face Fear itself and discover who-if anyone-he can trust, before the universe itself becomes home to nightmares.
Or, after the events of MAG 200, Jon and Martin ended up in the DCU...and so did the entities.

Summary
Following the return of Bruce Wayne to his post as Batman, Gotham City seemed like it had returned to some semblance of normal...that is, until a mysterious string of thefts and murders begin, untraceable by the police and wiped completely from virtual reality by a hacker whose skills may be on par with Oracle herself. All this while the Batfamily tries to heal their old wounds and unforeseen circumstances force two people to consider where they really stand with each other.
Enter old characters and new in a story about love, murder, shovel talks, computers, pizza, slow dancing, bat puns, family bonding, and above all, Barbara Gordon being the hero of her own story.

Summary
Dick Grayson lifts his head when he senses her. His blue eyes land on her, and he freezes, much like Barbara did when she saw him. For the longest time, they simply hold still and stare at each other. Neither of them moves, and neither of them breathes. Time ticks by, and all they do is stare and hold their breath. Then Dick stands and says the worst possible three words in the world: “I can explain.”
