Ready to take on the challenge of drawing Nightwing, the legendary DC Comics superhero? You’re in the right place! In this tutorial, we’ll guide you through a step-by-step process to help you create a stunning Nightwing drawing that will impress your friends and fellow comic enthusiasts.
Who is Nightwing?
Before we begin, let’s take a moment to explore Nightwing’s fascinating background. Adopted by Dick Grayson after leaving his role as Batman’s partner and sidekick Robin, Nightwing has appeared in various incarnations throughout American comic books published by DC Comics.
Interestingly, Nightwing’s origins can be traced back to classic Superman stories, where the identity was first assumed by Superman when stranded on the Kryptonian city of Kandor with Jimmy Olsen. The two protected Kandor as the superheroes Nightwing and Flamebird, drawing inspiration from Batman and Robin.
Over the years, several other characters have taken up the Nightwing mantle in both Batman and Superman stories, as well as in tales set outside DC’s main continuity.
