These stories may have been some inspiration for Clark Kent to become the Man of Steel in the first place. According to him, this Nightwing was a Kryptonian nobleman who had been cast out by his family for wanting to get involved with crime fighting. In the Post-Crisis storylines, Nightwing was a legend from Krypton that Jor-El had told a young Superman about. After managing to unshrink themselves, they recounted their stories to the superhero community and people at the Daily Planet. Deciding to become superheroes in the city whilst they figured out a way to resize themselves, Superman, inspired by Batman, took on the name Nightwing whilst Jimmy used the alias of Flamebird. In the Silver Age, Superman created the identity when trapped in the bottled city of Kandor after accidently been shrunk with Jimmy Olsen.
Though the most famous person to use the mantle of Nightwing is Richard "Dick" Grayson, the actual identity has been closely associated with Superman's home planet Krypton.
