[@Kat-qe1vk]

"Barbara will always be his boo" This is blatant Starfire erasure smh

[@yeahyeah9089]

The Nightwing and Barbara relationship is nasty and petty it was built on retcons at Nightwing and Starfire's expense. Barbara was originally 7 years older than Dick and had no romantic connection to him when he and Starfire started dating for more than 10 years in the NTT comics. She was a congresswoman engaged to her coworker Jason Bard. Barbara was only retconned into his love interest and aged down after the Batoffice took Dick's character from Marv Wolfman (creator oF Nightwing and The Iconic Nightwing/Starfire relationship)

[@yeahyeah9089]

And destroyed The Nightwing and Starfire relationship, Retconned it into nothing but lust, make a lot of shtty comics that downplays and undermines their relationship in favor of making Barbara look better for Dick. The Batwriters even made Nightwing cheat on Starfire so they can portray Barbara as his one true love and put down Starfire which is ooc and an insult to his character who was always depicted as a loyal monogamous one woman type of man in the NTT comics. Nightwing loved Kory, They dated for more than a decade. He became a better person and char because of Her and The titans. but Batwriters has been doing anything they can to diminish their relationship and seperate them from each other in favor of boosting his relationship with barbara

[@tehjmoney2604]

Dick Grayson and Barbara Gordon both work with Bruce Wayne Dick Grayson being his foster son and he and Barbara started their relationship while in school he met Starfire during the Teen Titans where Raven brought all of them together

[@youmnawehesh6228]

@@tehjmoney2604 it's a retcon , Barbara was originally secen years older , read 70s comics , she was a librarian when he was a teen

[@charamcnuggers9534]

"Barbara will also be his boo" Also Barbara : was originally never intended by DC to have a romance with Dick to begin with.

I'm surprised you didn't mention the fact that Damian even said that they are the best. And possibly his favorite partner which if you know anything about Damian is a huge compliment to Nightwing's skills

[@farynthehusky]

Yeah he literally leapt into Nightwing's arms because of how happy he was to see him, and that is completely off for Damien as a whole.

[@jonathansoko1085]

Dicks short run at batman gave us some of the best Damian moments as Robin, period

[@sbwan]

I Love that Superman is More responsible for Nightwing being a hero than Batman. Batman trained him but Superman guides him. It reminds me of how Goku is Gohans biological dad but Piccolo is More responsible for Gohan being GREAT

[@procrastinatorqueen]

Eh. Batman raised him since he was 8 as a superhero after his entire family died. Superman told him *one* bedtime story. Sure Superman is influential, but Batman is his dad. Even if he doesn't admit it himself.

[@savageshot3723]

@Luc Germain Yeah but the original poster said superman was more responsible for nightwing and guided him more than Batman which isnt true Imo. Not sure its relevant that nightwing eventually aspired to be more like superman

[@tehjmoney2604]

Batman raised him teaching him martial arts and science Superman was prominent role model for Dick Grayson and after Dick was fired from being Robin and also retired his Robin persona in the Teen Titans

[@tehjmoney2604]

Superman just gave him his name not raise him

[@sonpanchan]

Wouldn't say more reponsible since Bruce brought him in and raised him but Batman can be quite a jerk (especially in the 90's) and aloof and not have the best parenting skills but he really cares about Dick. So much that Dick is arguably the one he's the most proud of out of all Robins and the one he sees as leading the Justice League one day. Dick is also pretty friendly with the superhero community to the point the entire JSA helped him move to a new apartment so it makes sense that Bruce expects that he will go to do greater things. Superman is more like the cool uncle. Dick looks up to him and seeks him for guidance and advice especially when he can't talk to Bruce for whatever reason. Supes doesn't see himself as his father or mentor, but as a friend. Even if Dick looks up to him Superman always treated him like an equal which is something Dick appreciates. Which is why the Nightwing identity being inspired by both Batman and Superman seems pretty fitting.

[@Dumpweed971]

If there’s one thing us Grayson diehards know, it’s that in the end he always gets the shaft. Dude was literally the only one in the DCU that was universally loved and respected by all the heroes. Now he’s Ric...

[@adrianivashkov4242]

From the future, we’re back again until how long tho. They always build NW up just to f him over again.

[@snehnaik6337]

Who does dick end up with, Barbara or starfire?

[@benjical274]

I'd love to see an alternate reality where Grayson got the lantern ring.

[@tootinabag3481]

He should have a blue lantern ring

[@MrRobot-0]

Or just give him a ring for a lantern event, blue, yelow green and pink any of thos would do fine.

[@vcbuilder5541]

Even though I am a huge fan of Nightwing, and his backstory, and knew all of this, I appreciate you doing this episode! As most people don't know Nightwing (which is a shame) and his backstory! But you doing this educates every one of your fans who doesn't know of this AMAZING story! Have a nice day.

[@nightwing7404]

Yeah, I don’t know why I took so many years before I finally got around to learning about him and the other Robins, but I finally know.

[@bigtimecena3676]

[@darbiesamson140]

i thought i knew the backstory but........... i still have a few things i did not know😅

[@tehjmoney2604]

I mean people know the first Robin story but his time as Nightwing nobody knew about

[@antwan1357]

I've got the 1988 comic where Nightwing actually teaches Jason Todd the ropes because he makes mistakes tracking down drug operations. Then after Jason Todd dies Dick Grayson takes up the Batman title with Tim Drake as Robin while Batman back is healing . Then Dick Grayson takes up the cowl a second time for Batman's biological son , because Dick Grayson has a history of being more patient and detailed information about being a wingman.

I was waiting for this one I have always been a huge Nightwing fan, he's my favorite DC character. I always find it interesting that he's considered the greatest HUMAN acrobat/gymnast in DC being the only person that can do a quadruple somersault. Which is how Tim Drake discovered his identity when he remembered that the Flying Graysons were the only family that was known to be able to do this feat

I just love how the rest of the JLA has great respect towards Nightwing treating him like an equal. I think the reason behind that is because they can always count on Nightwing if they need his help.

Babs

[@champagneredneck]

Must insist again man, it's Starfire. Already has a kid with her in a couple of mediums. She's obviously the better looking and better suited choice for him

[@procrastinatorqueen]

+Why Not? Are you saying that Koriander is better for Dick because she's hotter? Shallow much. But for reals, Dick and Babs have so much history together, and their relationship before the Nu-52 was just so pure and, how do I put this... mature? Not just lust and passion, don't get me wrong I know that there are sweet moments with the NightStar ship too. But to me, the love between Dick and Babs just feels deeper than that between Dick and Kori. But you know, whatever floats your goat and all that.

[@BewareOfMpreg]

@@procrastinatorqueen i know your comment is like 2 years old but dickbabs is a ship that is literally built off of retcon after retcon and smearing dickkori because the batman writers detested kori and wanted to wipe her from the comics. dickbabs works better as a brother sister dynamic, sis.

[@yeahyeah9089]

@@procrastinatorqueen The idea that Barbara is his true love while downplaying Starfire and calling her just lust came from the batman and dick/barbara writers. The Dick and Barbara relationship was built on retcons At Starfire's expense. It can't stand on it's own without degrading another love interest of Dick to justify itself. it's nasty and petty.

[@austinmeghu]

Nightwing is the best member of the batman family because he inherently has more narrative potential than anyone else including Bruce. Imagine batman if he was more charming, charismatic, brighter, better looking, and could be played as an underdog. That's the greatest idea for a superhero ever.

I wholeheartedly believe that Nightwing would arguably be the most efficient vigilante in the real world if he existed. Of course there are more powerful heroes, but the real world doesn't have superpowers, and Nightwing has the efficiency of Batman and the compassion of Superman, and I think that's exactly what the world would need.
