8 Superheroes Who Had Their Identities Exposed

5. Nightwing

Dick Grayson may not even know his own identity these days, after having been shot in the head earlier this year, but it's still important nonetheless.

'Ric', as he's known by currently, has embarked on a new life after surviving his assassination attempt, but it's an earlier incident that proves he's the Bat-Family's most unfortunate members as of late.

Back during Forever Evil, when the Crime Syndicate had seemingly killed the Justice League, Dick was intercepted by the group and unmasked live on air. Dick then proceeded to go through... a whole lot, shall we say, but the unmasking proved pivotal enough for him to completely change as a hero.

No longer going by Nightwing, Dick infiltrated the spy agency known as SPYRAL and operated under a new alias. He did this for several years until he once again assumed the Nightwing identity, only to suffer the aforementioned wound and decide 'Ric' was a more appropriate name.
