Red Hood and the Outlaws | Comics

Dick Grayson was Batman’s first crime-fighting sidekick and the first Robin, who grew up to his own identity of the solo superhero Nightwing and left the Robin mantle behind. After Dick, Batman found a troubled orphan boy from the streets of Crime Alley to be his newest sidekick and the second Robin. What they didn’t knew was that Jason’s becoming Robin was a plan The Joker had in mind and very subtly manipulated the deaths of his parents.

He eventually fell into a trap set by Joker, where he was beaten to death only to be revived later by Talia al Ghul through the use of Lazarus Pit. He became a bit unstable and received new training. After hanging out with the League of Assassins for a while, Jason realized their way does not suit him best and he left.

Now assuming the new identity of Red Hood, he calls up his former friend Roy Harper from his days as Robin who was also a side kick of another vigilante hero named Green Arrow previously and now going by the name Arsenal. Princess Koriand'r AKA Starfire of the planet Tamaran is also grouped in and together they formed a squad of freelance mercenaries to avenge the enemies of justice.

After leaving the shadow of The Dark Knight, Jason started taking somewhat unethical moves in fighting crime like killing his opponents which earned him a reputation among the underworld. Red Hood fought Ra's al Ghul and later as a second chance, he was offered place in Batman Incorporated by Batman. Some time later, Jason would find himself teamed-up with Artemis and Bizarro.

Nightwing – New 52 | Comics

An acrobatic prodigy from his very childhood, Dick Grayson was a part of the famous Flying Graysons Act alongside his parents John and Mary Grayson in the Haly's Circus.

When Haly's Circus had arrived in Gotham City, The Riddler culminated the “Zero Year” on the city and Dick managed to return to Haly's camp upon surviving the catastrophe.

Soon, he lost both of his parents on the day of his mother’s birthday because of gangster Tony Zucco. Witnessing the incident, billionaire Bruce Wayne approaches Dick to take care for him. As he was kept at the Wayne Care Center, he routinely sneaked out of there at night looking for Zucco and the boy’s raw talent drew attention of Batman.

He was drafted to the lifelong crime-fighting path as The Boy Wonder; Robin and is trained by Batman. During his time as Robin he met Batgirl, fought Harley Quinn and The Joker as well as other criminals of Gotham. Years after serving as Batman’s sidekick, he moved from his mentor’s shadow and took the alias of Nightwing.

As Haly's Circus returned to Gotham after many years, it brought an age-old dark secret along with it. Once Batman has discovered the existence of the Court of Owls, he also found a link between them and Dick’s ancestors, who used to train Talon assassins for The Court. Just as the Night of the Owls descends upon Gotham, Nightwing fought them alongside the Bat-Family.
