Nick is Amanda Hawking's fellow officemate and frequent client of her web blogging assignments. Nick is a firm believer when it comes to truthful news. He hates and despises corporate news organizations (i.e. CNN and Fox News for example) for being useless lapdogs to right-wing American administrations rather than pillars of serving the people. He is one of International News Network (INN's) star reporters, but he is also the network's most angriest as well; every time theirs is a breaking news story he wants to exploit, his supervisors forcefully assigns him to meaningless assignments like celebrity sex scandals and Hollywood move premieres. Nick is determined to search for the truth, leading him to several dangerous situations where <a href="http://dangerman-1973.deviantart.com/art/Superhawke-action-pose-46630575">Superhawke</a>, Amanda's alter ego, rushes in and saves him. Nick is a well known defender of women's rights and believes in equality, but he also has an angry grudge against costumed superheroes: he believes that no one has the right to solve problems wearing ridiculous tights and proclaiming this is better resorted by uniformed servicemen like police officers and firemen; it also echoes this fact when that ten years ago, a costume vigilante was responsible, though inadvertently, for the tragic accidental death of Nick's father in a fight with a deranged serial arsonist in Boston (where Nick used to live). His favorite hobbies is reading progressive political activism books and playing poker (his favorite is Texas Hold 'Em). His favorite food is ravioli pasta with vinaigrette dressing. He is a natural in boxing and judo, but ends up losing in a fight. He has a degree in journalism and experience in reporting entertainment stories (a subject in which he hates).
