8 Superheroes That Should Have Their Own CW Show

Nightwing

Yes, we know that Nightwing’s getting his own movie already, but here us out on this one.

What’s it like to be a sidekick all your life? To live in the shadow of someone more famous than you and not really knowing your true worth as a solo hero? That would be the underlying motivation behind a Nightwing series, which would immediately make Dick Grayson the most complex out of any CW hero.

A show following Nightwing would start with him moving to Blüdhaven and adopting his new name in order to begin his career as a solo vigilante, but it would be so much more than that. Dick Grayson had his family taken from him at an incredibly young age, only to be immediately morphed into a crime fighter. He hasn’t had a normal life either, interacting mostly with the emotionally stunted Bruce Wayne. The other side of the show, of course, would see Dick learn how to be a functioning member of society as well as a kick ass hero.

It’s a balance that would not only bring a fan-favorite character to the small screen, but really explore him in ways a movie cannot.
