If batman were kicking on the same level as Nightwing, we wouldn't have a show at all. Yes this is true, but also Robin and Kid Flash also made these mistakes when there was no team at all. Arsenal made these mistakes with a fully developed and *somewhat* matured team. I don't think that there is much comparison between the two faults He hadn't been apart of that team for much longer. One of the things was his first mission as well, with a bunch of other noobs or traitors with no guardianship, the other. Easily matched by the trillions of other failures that they've all had. Nightwing's entire role in season two is as endangering, if not moreso, then what Arsenal did. Everybody on that team has screwed up at one point or another, there is no debating that. I don't agree with what Nightwing did, but still, Arsenal got kicked off the team for a reason. It was NOT because he "endangered the team," it was because he was still focused on getting revenge on Luthor. Think about it, even Batman was concerned about letting dick start crimefighting before they found zucco, because he knew dick would act the same way arsenal is acting. But after they found zucco and Dick got his justice/revenge, he started acting more like a hero. Arsenal needs to get luthor out of his system before he rejoins the team, otherwise it will never work.
