Nite-Wing

Nite-Wing (Tad Ryerstad) is a fictional character in the DC Comics series Nightwing. He is an antagonist, a fascist foil to the eponymous superhero (Dick Grayson). Obsessed with becoming a superhero to attain purpose, fame, and wealth, Ryerstad based his vigilantism on mass culture such as comic books, films, television and paperbacks, his hates and prejudices, and accusations against him (despite his claims to be fighting injustice). He is rejected and despised by Nightwing and other heroes after they discover that he is a psychopathic, reactionary neo-fascist unable to distinguish right from wrong, a spree killer no different from the supervillains and other criminals he seeks to fight.
