After Chicago was saved by Nightwing, Michael and Maxwell have a conversation about Nightwing and his status as a Vigilante.

And he intends to do whatever it takes to prevent it from happening.
It’s heavily hinted that he’s secretly responsible for the deaths of Chicago’s previous vigilantes. He’s also hinted to be known as Ghostwalker, a previous protector of Chicago.
