Here are my thoughts about NTT Dickkory:
They weren't a perfect couple. They had fights and misunderstandings like any other couple but they worked through their issues and helped fix each other.
Because of Kory, Dick stopped putting up walls. She taught him not to overwork himself, to be more open, to stop repressing his emotions and to understand that life offers much more than a job and responsibilities. She helped stopped him from turning into Batman 2.0.
At the same time, Dick kept Kory from becoming a murderer like her enemies. Kory learned to stop being reckless with her powers. He taught her mercy and patience.
Some people complain and say that Dick disrespected Kory’s culture but I disagree. Dick cared about Kory enough to correct her when she was wrong. Think about it: if someone you love told you , “I want to kill my bully tomorrow,” would you say yes??? If you truly love them, you wouldn’t agree even if killing felt justified. You’d stop them because you know it’s morally wrong to take another person's life and you don't want your loved one to go to jail.
Another thing: it’s also like if you came from a communist country and then decided to move to a democratic one. You don’t demand that the new country follow communist laws. You adjust. That’s what Kory learned. Just because killing was okay on Tamaran doesn’t mean it’s okay on Earth. Remember, Dick was one of the people who taught Kory about Earth and helped her adjust to it as an immigrant, so of course he’d also teach her about human laws along the way so she wouldn’t get herself into trouble.
And about the marriage of state, Dick was upset at first, because of course, who wouldn’t be upset if the partner you're deeply in love with, who you thought was only going to be yours, was actually going to marry someone else? But he eventually learned to accept that a political Tamaranean marriage doesn’t hold any validity on Earth.
Throughout the entire NTT run, you will see Dick and Kory already resolved the issue about Batman, Killing and her Political Marriage with Karass.
I don’t think Dick had any intention of disrespecting Kory’s culture. He only disagreed when it came to things that affect the law. Outside of that, he embraced and loved the parts of her that were Tamaranean. He loved how open and free she was with her emotions. He literally said that’s what made him fall for her. He loved how joyful she was despite everything she’d suffered, and how different she was from Batman.
Their relationship wasn’t just about love. It was about growth and compromise. It reminded people that you have to correct each other, too. If you see your partner doing something wrong, you don’t enable it. You help each other figure out what’s right and what’s not. Kory taught Dick that it’s not okay to isolate himself and Dick taught Kory that it’s not okay to choose violence.
Kory opens him up, while Dick grounds her. They both challenge each other to be better.
Because of this, they could’ve overcome anything, even the Mirage incident and Raven’s disastrous wedding. I honestly think the only thing that broke them up wasn’t each other but the editors. We know they were originally going to get married through Art Thibert’s planned Nightwing series at the time, and Marv even approved of the idea, but it was canceled because of editorial decisions, so it was rewritten into a disastrous wedding. That’s why I think Kory victim-blaming Dick in New Titans #99 was out of character. I believe it wasn’t supposed to happen originally because, prior to #99, Dick and Kory had already resolved the Mirage incident. In New Titans #95, they planned revenge on Mirage for what she did to both of them (deceiving Dick into sleeping with her and exploiting Kory’s image). Later, Kory even felt bad for Mirage despite everything she’d done.
After they got revenge, Dick and Kory seemed to have fully moved on from Mirage. They were enjoying each other’s company and laughing together again. They even celebrated when Dick could finally go out with Kory publicly without disguising himself. Nothing in those issues suggested that Kory was holding a grudge against Dick or that the Mirage incident was an unresolved issue in their relationship.
There’s also Titans Sell-Out Special, which came out before #99. It included a promotional cover for Art Thibert’s Nightwing series that was supposed to launch after New Titans #100. In that book, Mirage went on vacation with them and even though Mirage joined them, Kory wasn’t mad at Dick at all. She was happy and smiling with him. They were even kissing. That implies DC was still planning for them to have a successful marriage at that point.
That’s why Kory’s reaction in #99 feels out of place to me. She suddenly gets angry at Dick again over the Mirage incident, even though in the previous issues she appeared to have already moved past it.
So I think the original wedding plan was canceled sometime between New Titans #95 and #99. The story was altered to make the Mirage incident their conflict again and that conflict led to the “marrying for the wrong reason” wedding and the “Raven possessing Starfire” storyline, which was then used as a reason to progressively break them up in the process because Dick had to be pulled out of the Titans books so he could move back to the Bat-editorial group who didn’t want him dating a superpowered character in their books.
Overall, what I will say to the haters of NTT Dickkory is that you can find DickKory unhealthy, that’s your own interpretation but you cannot say that their entire history was just a teenage fling. They dated for a decade (1980–1994).
You can say Kory wasn’t the best partner for Dick and vice versa, but you cannot deny that they were genuinely in love with each other when they were together.
You can dislike Dickkory. It’s your personal preference, but you cannot say Kory was just the “disposable slutty alien” to Dick. Dick’s entire characterization in NTT contradicts that made up claim.
You can prefer Dick with someone else and vice versa, but you can’t ignore the fact that Dick and Kory were an important part of each other’s histories and that shouldn't be ignored.
You can prefer Dick with Barbara but you cannot say Barbara was the one and only woman he genuinely loved.
And you cannot say Dickbabs is much healthier. NTT Dickkory only had 3 fights while there are literally 10+ panels of Dickbabs fighting and abusing each other.
