Watchmen Costume Nite Owl
The Nite Owl II is Daniel Dreiberg, a retired, out-of-shape superhero who uses owl-themed gadgets, in a manner which led Dave Gibbons to consider him "an obsessive hobbyist... a comics fan, a fanboy." Nite Owl was based on the Ted Kord versof the Charlton superhero Blu Bettle. Just as Ted Kord had a predecessor, Moore also incorporion ated an earlier adventurer who used the name "Nite Owl", the retired crime figh ter Hollis Mason, into Watchmen. While Moore devised character notes for Gibbons to work from, the artist provided a name and a costume design for Hollis Mason he had created when he was twelve. Richard Reynolds noted in Super Heroes: A Modern Mythology that despite the character's Charlton roots, Nite Owl's modus operandi has more in common with the DC Comics character Batman. According to Geoff Klock, his civilian form "visually suggests an impotent, middle-aged Clark Kent.

He's a strange bird.

... But a pretty tough one, just the same. A friend to Rorshach and Silk Spectre, he knows how to get the job done. Together, they just might save the world.
