Next up is Eddy's double splash page from Nightwing #1 (pages 2 &3)•• Beautifully rendered, but a complete waste of a double page spread. -- Why?

Luke Ross' Captain America (Cap Who?) pages above [edit: I mean, on the previous page] have a fun echo of Gene Colan in them-- Colan using perspective grids.
I hope those pages were printed in black and white. Color would really UNhance them.

Talked with some friends about this at lunch. We were a bit unclear why the double page above is a complete waste? One of my friends brought up these examples...
...not sure what the difference is?

Just trying to learn why one works and the other doesn't.
The question is open to anyone. Thanks :)

Well, first thing that comes to mind is that on the Nightwing one he's just taking a stroll, and Spider-Man is saving/scaring the shit out of people.
Also, the Nightwing one doesn't "move" to my eyes, it seems like he's just frozen in the air, as the Spider-Man ones have more urgency and movement. They tell a piece of a story to me, even isolated form the whole 22-page context.

I just don't think the figure uses the benefits of the horizontal layout. Little too centered, and the legs could be more horizontal and stretched out.No biggie.
Sure is purty. Wish I could draw buildings like that (and the Spider-man samples)...

Unless that story about Nightwing is about a trip across the street, there is an enormous difference between the Nightwing double-pager and those two Spider-Man examples.
All of them advance the story exactly one panel, but the Nightwing story doesn't even really get THAT far.

The splash was the second page of the first issue of the new series.
The first pages shows footfalls and closeups of his eyes as Nightwing
races and leaps into Gotham. Essentially sets up the skyline and the
character for the new universe. I've seen the double splash from issue
#16 and can't wait to take a peek close up and compare the
difference.
