Having been Bruce Wayne ’s first ward and sidekick as the Boy Wonder , Dick Grayson has since raise up to become a major A - tier hero in his own right as Nightwing .

InNightwing # 124by Dan Watters and Dexter Soy , Dick Grayson is struggling to keep the heartsease between the city ’s rival gangs who ’ve been manipulated into killing each other as justification for Blüdhaven’soverly - strong-growing police force being build up with high - technical school weaponry from Spheric Solutions .

Now , Nightwing discover himself saved at the end of this issue by a young kid named Bryce , a member of the shift who ’s seemingly taken it upon himself to be Grayson ’s new Robin - esque brother .
Nightwing Getting His Own Sidekick Would Be A Big Milestone
Bryce Needs A Mentor, And He’s Already Got Dick Grayson’s Back
With Bryce ’s erstwhile crony having been kill by the BPD and Spheric take out the Teddies ' leader Mama Bear , it ’s light the immature " cub " is looking for some guidance amid thechaos that ’s do to Blüdhaven , and the slight truce Nightwing has managed to secure between the city ’s rival gangs while he deals with Spheric . recognise that Nightwing is the only one who ’s stress to make thing considerably and help the gangs , Bryce back up Grayson when tensions begin running richly between the Teddies and the Flyboiz .

One question has always cling with me — why did Dick Grayson ditch his Robin ness when he became Nightwing ? Well , I think I ’ve finally found the answer .
Additionally , Grayson himself near loses his life sentence at the upshot ’s end due to some major hallucinations while fighting Spheric ’s baneful robots , withNightwing having just founder six pints of blood to the Flyboiz who were near death(also thanks to Spheric ) . That said , Nightwing was saved by the timely arrival of Bryce who fired on the robot and kept it distracted .

Nightwing Has Definitely Risen To Batman’s Level In Recent Years
There Have Been Some BIG Moments
run beyond Nightwing most probably getting his very own sidekick , it ’s no secret that Dick Grayson has significantly evolved in late years withNightwing becoming a major A - list hero . Some key parallels to Batman have been achieved , but Nightwing has also hail to go past his former mentor in more ways than one . Case in point , Nightwing inherit billions of dollars from the recent Alfred Pennyworth , and he at once used it to better his metropolis from the ground up , helping Blüdhaven as Dick Grayson on a point that had n’t really been seen from Bruce Wayne in Gotham .
Likewise , the consequence ofDark Crisissaw the Justice League taking some time off to reassess , and they chose Nightwing to take the reins and go a Modern premiere team of heroes to protect the world in the meantime with The Titans . Even in this fresh Nightwing era , it ’s been shown that Dick Grayson keep on to expand his mental process in Blüdhaven , having his very own planet secure business firm that very much resemble a more advanced Batcave ( albeit one that ’s a little less down in the mouth ) . Likewise , Batman himself has recognized that Nightwing has become a far greater hero than the Dark Knight could ever hope to be .
That order , it ’s been somewhat cool to see Dick Grayson achieve these milestones that have clearly helped elevate him to his adoptive father ’s level . This will be even more true if Dick does indeed take on Bryce as a new pal . While Damian Wayne was technically Dick Grayson ’s Robin before he was Bruce ’s , it was only irregular while Bruce was MIA and Dick was fill in as Batman . It ’s a whole other matter exclusively for Nightwing to get a permanent brother , one whose breeding would probably have some exciting differences compared to how Grayson was trained by The Dark Knight .
What Could Happen Next For Nightwing
Where Does He Go From Here?
look to the futurity , one has to marvel if Dick Grayson even wants a chum to aid in his mission to keep Blüdhaven good . He undoubtedly sees a kindred spirit in Bryce as someone who ’s just suffer great loss and is seeking justice , just like Grayson when his parents died and Bruce have him in as his ward . That said , one can imagine that Nightwing might have some conflicted feeling about bringing a kid into this world of champion and vigilantes , which can often lead to great exit and severity .
Nightwing has long take the rubric of DC ’s smashing butt , but thanks to a recent covering firing , it seems Superman is coming for the crown .
As such , it ’s die to be bewitching to see how Nightwing reacts to Bryce ’s bluff decision to become Grayson ’s young partner in future issues . All things considered , this warfare that ’s amount to Blüdhaven could very well become the staring melting pot that motivates Nightwing to bring Batman ’s legacy full R-2 ( and beyond ) . Considering his condition as Blüdhaven ’s primary protector , a former leader of a premier superhero team , and his expanding web of friend and resources , it does seem like having a lasting Robin - type sidekick is the legitimate next footmark , one of the last self-aggrandising milestones when it come to Nightwing unfeignedly being on Batman ’s level .
