Connor Hawke vs. Dick Grayson

vs.

Both in their costumes, but unarmed --- no bow, no Eskrima sticks. No gadgets of any kind.

Pure melee combat.

Who wins?

Connor is supposed to be one of DC's very best (even above Nightwing), but I don't know of any recent feats of his that might have pushed him up or down the pecking order.

It's hard to properly assess his skill level, as he is enhanced somewhat, no?

But he still gets his physicals here, of course.

Nightwing doesn't mind fighting highly skilled metahumans and whooping their asses.

Connor Hawke, one of the many characters DC completely forgot about

They only care about Batman and Superman, lol.

Same with WB.

That's also why they're going to go bankrupt soon and die.

I'm sad to be reminded that there are cool underused D-listers in DC

Didn't he have....Plastic Man related powers or something?

Yeah, something that gave him a healing factor:

So he is basically another Midnighter waiting to get sodomized by horny Dick.

I just liked that panel, lol.

Would've been even better if Greg Land had drawn it biscuits

Read the issue where that panel is from and you will get the answer to your question!

Spoiler:
Shiva easily handles/one shots [iirc] Dick and then has a very close fight with Connor

It's a younger Dick ... 😏 ... but still.
