Batman #125 time again… Dick Grayson was shot in the head by the KGB Beast, lost his memory and became Ric Grayson, for a time. Jason Todd was beaten to death by the Joker, later revived by the Lazarus Pit to become the murderous Red Hood. Damian Wayne was stabbed through the chest on the orders of his mother Talia al Ghul, before also being revived.
