Many of you know that I name my horses after Marvel and DC Superheroes. For those of you who are unfamiliar with these characters, here is a glimpse at some of my stables namesakes.
NIGHTWING
When Batman's sidekick Robin grew up, he became a solo crimefighter himself named Nightwing. While being strictly on the side of law and order, Nightwing was a bit disillusioned with Batman's strict code of ethics, preferring to do whatever was necessary to bring criminals to justice, even if it means bending the rules a bit.
UNION JACK
With strength and fighting skill greatly enhanced by the Pendragon, an ancient English mystic force which also gave it's strength to the fabled King Arthur, Union Jack protects the people of the British Isles.
Jim Rhodes, the man inside the armored battlesuit, was initially an employee of Tony Stark, otherwise known as Iron Man. In defiance of his employer, Rhodes donned the suit to demonstrate it's peacekeeping abilities. He was very skilled in it's use and was recruited by S.H.I.E.L.D. to lead a strike force to combat terrorism.
