Nightwing is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. The character has appeared in various incarnations, with the Nightwing persona most prominently being adopted by Batman s partner Dick Grayson when he outgrows his identity as Batman s sidekick Robin. Nightwing remains strongly associated with Batman, but the title and concept have origins in classic Superman stories. The original Nightwing in DC Comics was an identity assumed by alien superhero Superman when stranded on the Kryptonian city of Kandor with his pal Jimmy Olsen. Drawing inspiration from Batman and Robin, the two protect Kandor as the superheroes Nightwing and Flamebird. Following a continuity reboot in 1985, Nightwing was reimagined as a legendary vigilante from Krypton whose story inspires Dick Grayson s choice of name when he leaves behind his Robin identity.
