Nightwing

Evening aerial appendage

Nightwing is a superhero identity in DC Comics, most famously associated with Dick Grayson after he outgrew his role as Batman's sidekick Robin.

The name suggests nocturnal flight and independence from Batman's shadow: He went from Robin to Nightwing when he struck out on his own.

Nightwing operates primarily in the city of Blüdhaven and is known for acrobatic combat skills inherited from his circus upbringing.
