I highly doubt it.
Maybe his plan was to convince Raya that he really loves all of his circus freak friends! That way, she'll go against Saiko and help everyone escape. Too bad Batman is still trapped in the underground owl labyrinth. And Batwoman is currently bouncing across time and fighting Falchion. And Batgirl is busy with Gretel and Batman. Wait, Batman is busy saving Robin from Nobody! Unless he's busy fighting Scarecrow! Or in Penguin's casino. Or helping Batwing stop Massacre. Or lying to Justice League International and telling them they're capable of doing a good job.
Batman sure is busy! No wonder he doesn't have time to help Nightwing!
Oh oh! Here it comes! Confession and Motive Time!
It sounds like Old Man Haly was an asshole. And climbing Barbed Wire naked can make you into a super villain? I bet he could have defeated Nightwing if Haly had made him climb Razor Wire!
That's a good plan as long as Batman isn't currently trapped just underneath the Gotham City Circus Convention Center! Or is the Convention Center sponsored by Waynetech? So it's probably Waynetech Arena.
Hopefully the sand blasting everywhere doesn't smother all the people trapped inside the Arena as well. I'm sure they'll all survive. Or anybody that dies isn't important to the DC universe anyway. It's just I don't like to see a story arc where lots of innocent people die but it's okay in the end because the hero survived and he was able to save the people that matter. I've probably read too much Kurt Vonnegut to not care about what happens to everyone in a story. I can't just blind myself to the main characters.
Anyway, Nightwing and Saiko fall to the ground with Nightwing about to fall into the hole caused by the scoreboard and Saiko ready to push him in.
See this, Nathan Edmondson? Kyle Higgins is taking into account cause and effect within the story. The whole sand catacombs scoreboard thing might be a bit over the top and ludicrous but at least he deals with the repercussions of Nightwing's act.
Raymond must be really messed up to think Raya would follow him this far.
But Raymond wasn't good enough and was left in a forest to die. That's why Raymond became Saiko instead of the Court of Owl's next Talon. Yep. That's the secret of the book of names Dick found. It's also a huge Spoiler about Batman #6 and #7 which I haven't read yet!
I guess I'd better read Batman #6 and #7 before Nightwing #8 which is a Prelude to The Night of Owls!
