DICK GRAYSON, AKA: ROBIN. AKA: NIGHTWING



IN THE BEGINNING THERE WAS A YOUNG BOY WHO LOVED THE CIRCUS ...

Everyone knows the story of Dick Grayson and his life a circus performer with the rest of his family. Fans of the international DC Comics also know how billionaire Bruce Wayne adopted him because he saw a spark of himself in the boy, and now Grayson stumbled on the fact the Wayne was Batman, soon became Wayne’s sidekick, Robin. 

Then after years as the super hero Robin, Grayson began questioning his role as Batman sidekick. He began to feel that Batman was holding his true potential as a crime fighter back and that Batman still saw his as the young boy he had rescued after his family’s murder. As with any father and son relationship there are growing pains and the things sometimes go sour, until the day finally came when Grayson felt he must brake away from Wayne and the Justice League to fight crimes on his terms, and he did so successful. 

Nightwing as Grayson now calls himself is a new hero and every aspect of his demeanor shows it. From his jet black outfit with the flaming red bat cresting his chest to his no nonsense handling of creeps like Abattoir, Baltzar, Baron Blitzkrieg, the  Batman Clone and of course Deathstroke, Nightwing has prove himself an enforcer for good. 

For years, we fans have watched Nightwing grow stronger. So, now the question reminds will Nightwing find his place among the superheroes who have previously have graced the silver screen? Will Nightwing finally be recognized as a major player in the crime fighter arena? And now that Bruce Wayne has hung up his bat wings will the next movie in the DC Comics’ franchised be that of Nightwing?

Ah, one can only hope -- E A-F
