Cassandra fears herself.
Warning! Contains Spoilers For Knight Terrors: Nightwing #2!Almost every member of the Bat-Family has a dark side to their past – but few have a history as dark as Cassandra Cain. Born to be a weapon, Knight Terrors: Nightwing #2 makes it clear that her worst nightmare is not any villain in the DC Comics Universe, but instead her own view of herself.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Knight Terrors: Nightwing #2 – by Becky Cloonan, Michael W. Conrad, Daniele Di Nicuolo, and Adriano Lucas – finds Cassandra, like most of the heroes and villains of the DC Universe, trapped in a nightmare thanks to the villain Insomnia. As each DC character faces their greatest fears, Cassandra Cain confronts herself, and there is a heartbreaking reason why.
Cassandra Cain Fears She's A Monster At Her Core Cassandra Cain is one of the most capable fighters on the planet, far beyond even Batman in ability, but she didn't get to that point without hardship. Cassandra was trained by her father, David Cain, to be a literal weapon. She wasn't trained to speak any language other than body language. She wasn't trained to feel empathy or human emotion, only to kill.
The fact Cassandra's fear wasn't some villain or monster, but was instead herself, shows the traumatic effect her father's training had on her. One of the biggest elements of Cassandra's character development over the years was her coming to terms with the fact that she isn't just a weapon. While Cassandra Cain's origin had her destined as a villain for Batman, she was able to overcome that and become a hero.
The question of her destiny as a killer is proven to be the most horrifying thing Cassandra can think of, which she is confronted with in Knight Terrors: Nightwing #2. While she's done amazing heroic things, the fear that she is only what she was born to be is very real, very heartbreaking. There is no doubt that Cassandra Cain is a hero, but unlike most of the Bat-Family, Cass had malevolent parents hell-bent on turning her into a killer.
