Academic study of the Batman franchise has involved gay interpretations since at least , when psychiatrist Fredric Wertham asserted in his book Seduction of the Innocent that "Batman stories are psychologically homosexual". Dick Grayson has gone through quite the character development in DC Comics. He is one of their oldest characters and started as their youngest. With every adaption, things alter in slight ways so that these characters are the same, but with creative differences that help the developers tell their own story with iconic DC Comics characters.
So, Dick Grayson, aka Nightwing, aka former Robin, is heterosexual in the comics, unlike Tim Drake, aka another version of Robin, who was confirmed to be bisexual, if not gay, in the ‘Batman: Urban Legends’ storyline. Pride is a tricky time for a lot of bisexual people. Many have spent a lifetime between two worlds. Not hetero enough to fit in with the straights while at the same time not feeling like we have the right to exist visibly in queer spaces.
He's been around since the 40s. I think he meant Nightwing (not Dick Grayson as Robin). No. He ment bisexual. You're basically saying that people who like everyone and identify as bi are just pan. And that's dicky think to say. Dick Grayson is one of the longest-tenured characters in DC Comics. With a huge influx of LGBTQ representation in comics, fans wonder — is Nightwing gay, bisexual, or straight in the comics? Dick Grayson, aka Nightwing, was never anything but heterosexual in the comics.
The DC Comics character of Dick Grayson (Robin and later Nightwing) has been subtextally coded queer since his first appearance over seventy-five years ago, unintentionally creating an ambiguous sexuality up to today. Please consider turning it on! Dick is thrown into the Absolute universe, but not in a way he has traveled through dimensions before. His appearance leaves Bruce wondering if placing a siren in his shower is the Ark M's new ploy to kill him.
