Here’s a SG concept:

Alex is already a superhero in my book. If she was in the batfam she’d be running around with a cowl by now.

I was going to use this concept for a later story but I’m gonna speak it into existence now. Stay with me here guys. Alex as Nightwing.

Before you start crying that Nightwing is a Batman thing let me remind you that lil’ nerd Dick Grayson named himself Nightwing after the Kryptonian god that’s associated with Flamebird.

Reasons why Alex should be Nightwing:

1) Alex has no superpowers. Is a trained federal agent and scientist. If Dick Grayson can do it with a background of a carnie, Alex could certainly pull it off.

2) The Kryptonian god Nightwing was created by Rao to hunt evils that lived beyond his light in the shadows. Being a creature of shadow itself Nightwing lived a lonely existence until it was introduced to Flamebird, it’s soulmate. Alex also lives a life in the shadows hunting evils. The shadow of her family of her parents and Kara doesn’t stop her from finding her place in the DEO.

3) It fits in thematically and aesthetically. It would be poetic to have a set of Kryptonian made villains like the Worldkillers to be stopped by a member of the house of El and the avatar of a Kryptonian god.

4) Because I say so
