A lil list of characters I believe Dick Grayson should interact more with ("lil list" because I want this guy to interact with every DC characters. Heroes, villains, vigilantes, civilians, cows- ahem anyways):

1. Diana Prince AKA Wonder Woman.

I'll forever die on this hill, they need to be seen together more. She's been knowing him ever since he was a literal child, just like Clark. If Clark can be the uncle, why can't Diana be an aunt figure?

They met on several missions and what, she just ignored him? There are some of their interactions (I'm gonna make a whole post about everything I can find), you can tell that there's at least mutual respect... But it's not enough for me.

There's an issue of the recent Batman/Superman World's Finest of the first time Batman, Superman and Robin went on Themyscira and they interacted, what, once? Barely, even. You cannot convince me that Diana would just ignore a child. She's so nice with them, she would not ignore Robin.

Batman/Superman: World’s Finest #30

They really didn't interact at all... In issue #16 they went on a small mission together and we saw so little anyways.

We have limited interactions with them BUT we saw her kissing Jason's cheek (their only meeting btw, idk where the whole "he's her biggest fan" thing came out from. Also she mentioned Grayson that one time too) and hugging Damian before Dick. Criminal to me.

Not saying they have to be all huggy and clingy or stuff like that, but little affection in a aunt-nephew way wouldn't hurt.

A plus in this is that Dick is literally Donna's best friend, they grew up together, Diana was never ever there? And don't get me started on the wasted opportunity in making them mourn together Donna's death. Literally her sister and brother's figures, two people who shouldn't even be strangers. We didn't even get one panel of them... Not even eye contact... Nothing.

He's been existing for more than her (Dick's first appearance being Detective Comics #38 (1940) in April and Diana's All-Star Comics #8 (1941) in October). They have been around for so long and yet.

2. Lois Lane.

Dick sorta grew up around Clark, so as Dick or Robin, he should have had a few interactions with her a few times. Which, he did, like in Nightwing: Year One... Then it wasn't much explored after. Fair, I suppose, but still...

There isn't much I can gather on them, surely a little more than this, but not by much.

I feel like they would be an interesting duo to see working together, especially when he was Robin.

Ditching Batman and Superman to solve a case together and managing to do so.

Also there's the plus now that Dick was a mentor to Jon, and it did give us some of them together! But... Not enough.

3. Dinah Lance AKA Black Canary.

Dinah, his girlfriend's best friend, one of his best friend's mother figure, one of DickBabs' biggest shippers... And their interactions are limited.

Don't get me wrong, there's surely quite the stuff and nice moments like this:

Nightwing #58 (1996)

Or them fighting together.

Birds of Prey #54

But very brief stuff.

I wish to see more of them sparring or fighting together on a mission guided by Oracle Babs. They probably have a closer relationship than he does with Diana or Lois but y'know, we lack moments of it.

4. Carter Hall AKA Hawkman.

Except for the whole bird thing being one of the reasons, that man? His grumpy butt simply has a soft spot for the OG Teen Titans. I'm telling you he was happy to let them in. Like, to him those are still five snotty kids okay? He does respect them and thinks "highly" of them! As even shown here with Dick:

The Brave and The Bold #15 (2007)

...But they're still the snotty kids of his colleagues. And while he might seem like a jerk, he loves them deep down. Dick called him a jerk but kinda funny.

Robin and Batman #2

(The way he spoke so much about everyone and then with Diana is just "Oh and I met WW too"😭...)

Anyways have this small funny moment too.

The Brave and The Bold #15 (2007)

Anyways I'll forever be of the belief that Hawkman really got this big soft spot for the OG Titans. And even if he might come out as a jerk sometimes, he's actually caring for them. After all, they grew up around the League.

5. Cassandra Cain AKA Batgirl, Black Bat, Orphan.

It's crazy that we don't have much on them while they're literally adoptive siblings. That's his sister. She was his sister way before Melinda.

They had such a good relationship, rocky at first but softened soon, Dick even played Cinderella for her (and we didn't get to see that...ugh).

Batgirl #58 (2000)

She even helped him with Slade once (Nightwing #81 (1996)).

He also made it clear once that if she ever needs someone to talk with, to let him know because he's been there.

Batman: Family #7 (2002)

Then, unfortunately, DC had messed up with the whole evil Cass thing... And they weren't in the best relationship but luckily enough made up, and now we do get moments of Cassandra calling him brother, kicking asses for him, sparring and making pancakes...

But again, very little compared to other stuff, which is kinda a shame.

So where's my Nightiwng/Batgirl book with Batgirl being Cass?

6. Stephanie Brown AKA Spoiler, Robin, Batgirl.

That's the Batgirl to his Batman. And I "hate" how little we got of them back when he was Batman. I kinda get why of course, it was... An era.

I can barely think of moments of them... One on a rooftop in a Detective Comics issue where they sorts went live together? I don't completely remember but I remember her saying something along the lines "Nightwing, we're live"?

Tom Taylor did grace us with them hugging once...

Their meeting in Batman and Robin Eternal...

Just little exchanges.

BUT.

She's going to be on New Titans, so we WILL get more of them together and I'm so excited about it (if y'all didn't notice before, my friends are probably tired of hearing this😆)

In an interview, Tate Brombal said that "they’d have different ideas of the Titans themselves and what they can be" so I wonder what their relationship is going to be like, and hope this will get them closer.

Maybe Dick being kinda a mentor to her and trusting her abilities unlike many do. In a way, they're also quite similar so it's a duo with potential y'know?

Even if they might have different ideas for the team, I hope it won't be too bad.

Brombal better not mess this up... I've been waiting for this moment ever since I was a foot tall... I've been wishing to see them together since ever...

Anyways have this variant cover for New Titans with Dick and Steph.

7. Garth AKA Aqualad, Tempest.

Ah, one of the OG Teen Titans, a founding member of the Fab Five, someone who was there even before Roy iirc... And gets forgotten. Everyone always forget about my boy Garth I swear...

Dick has such a close relationship to all the Fab Five but barely when it comes to Garth.

I mean of course they're best friends, we just don't see it happening I suppose... They do have some cute and nice moments, like this:

Teen Titans: Year One #2

Like, my babies ugh🤧

Oh and Garth sorta going against Arthur over Dick, lol.

Titans Annual #1 (2016)

"Why is you, my king, taking the lead when Nightwing's our leader?🙄" And that smirk at the end, love it.

As always, almost everyone respect Dick, Garth being one of those people.

In a moment where Garth needed advices (even if already knew what to do) and was seeking comfort, out of all the Titans he went to Dick.

Titans #15 (2008)

8. Duke Thomas AKA Robin, Signal.

They had a rocky relationship at first because of the whole We Are Robin thing... But it's been so long...

We could have them being in a, again, "rocky" relationship at first and grow a little closer after a mission together.

Perhaps having Dick apologizing about that time too😭;;

Not saying they need 50 issues together and be besties but it would be nice to see members of the same team interacting a little more from time to time.

Ah wait, DC needs to use Duke more in general.

We'll see him in Batman at least...

9. Koriand'r AKA Starfire.

Now, I think it's an exaggeration saying they don't even get to stand next to each other, I do agree that they should talk more though!

And I don't like the way DC tries to erase or discard their relationship, since it was important for both characters and helped their growth.

I do like the idea of them being exes who are still on friendly terms and very close. Not as in "we still love each other romantically", more like a "we still love and care for each other a lot platonically and a break up won't get in the way of our friendship" thing.

And as I've said after New Titans #33 came out, they need to talk, and maybe will... Don't know how good that'll go though...? I hope not badly, I really want to see them being friends even after everything, at least.

DC just need to make a choice, and we all know what I mean. Until that day, I fear things won't be so "normal"? I don't know how to describe it😅

So we do have lots of their interactions, of course, but not much lately and that's the problem.

10. Garfield Logan AKA Changeling, Beast Boy. Victor Stone AKA Cyborg. Rachel Roth AKA Raven.

I'm including them all together because I don't have much to argue on them.

They're also his close friends, his teammates, his other family, so I'd like more of their relationships.

We are probably going to get him and Cyborg, since they'll be the only remaining members of the Titans with the New Titans.

And a Titan is showing up in Nightwing soon... There are theories of them being Raven, Gar or Kory...👀

Genuinely hope for Raven, it would fit the atmosphere and plot more than the other two.

11. Talia al Ghul.

I wanna see bitter Dick arguing with her, their interactions are so funny.

12. League members.

Back to the point I've made for Hawkman, this boy grew up with them. He was the first sidekick and all.

They watched him starting as a child and now he's one of the best leaders and most trusted/respected guy around, they'd be proud bet.

If I gotta go more specific and pick members, I'd say: Barry Allen AKA Flash, Hal Jordan AKA Green Lantern (I love Hal, please I need them together), Oliver Queen AKA Green Arrow, Arthur Curry AKA Aquaman, J'onn J'onzz AKA Martian Manhunter (we did get a little from Watters!), Shayera Hoo AKA Hawkgirl...

This is pretty much it... What I can argue at least. There are characters that would have no reason at all to interact with Dick and I still want to see it happening, lol.

I would have said Connor Hawke days ago for no reason at all and we did see them talking in the background together (SPOILERS, BE WARNED!).

Another example is John Constantine. I just love the guy so...

This post was made for @bahibuu who was curious to hear my whole rant on the matter😆

I'm sure I've said more stuff, especially about some characters, to the co-worker... But my memory sucks, I don't remember everything of it;; And maybe our conversation was longer because I had to explain the moments since I didn't have the pics to show her.

Sorry if the post is kinda late! Something came up yesterday and I was gathering material so... But here it is now :)

(I'm sure everyone can tell which character I want to see him more with, lol...)

it's bad enough they made Hawkman completely hairless (a crime in and of itself) but then they give him the worse arm hair I've ever seen, are they supposed to be feathers?

Aquaman #12 (2025)
