The Times Nightwing Got Bitchslapped or Owned

Nightwing’s one of those cool characters who reads good (most of the time) and also fights good. However, the man also known as Dick Grayson, isn’t as good as his mentor Batman when it comes to fighting. He gets his ass handed to him from time which makes him more… human. Here are the times Nightwing has been bitchslapped or owned by the villains he’s faced.

Bane

Bane had always been a powerhouse and even Batman made the critical error of fighting him during Knightfall. We all know what happened to Bruce Wayne in that iconic and tragic moment. So what does Dick stand against Bane?

Deathstroke the Terminator

Even before dropping the Robin identity and embracing Nightwing, Grayson has had a lot of experience fighting Slade Wilson aka Deathstroke the Terminator. And there are tons of pages and panels where we see the former Batman sidekick getting his ass kicked.

KGBeast

Under what appears to be orders from Bane, KGBeast returns to Gotham City in Batman # 55 to take out the former Boy Wonder. Sure it doesn’t look like a bitchslap on the outside but this is a serious ownage on Grayson’s life and status quo, so we’re counting this as one.
