Richard John "Dick" Grayson Wayne is a comic book superhero created by Bob Kane and Bill Finger for DC Comics. As a supporting character to Batman, Dick was first introduced as Batman's crime-fighting partner Robin. As he transitioned into adulthood, Dick decided to take on the persona of Nightwing.

Grayson has served as a leader for various teams, including the Teen Titans and the Outsiders. His leadership is marked by his ability to inspire and strategize effectively.

When his circus acrobat family was brutally murdered, Dick Grayson was taken in by billionaire and bat-friendly super hero Bruce Wayne. Bruce shared his secret life as Batman with the young boy and eventually molded him into Robin—the Dark Knight's partner in Gotham.
