Buh-WHAAA? with Nightwing

“You now what I like?,” says my fellow register jockey at work today. “The secret identity of a male model.”

He now has my attention. “Male model?,” I ask. After all, ‘model’ is one of the most popular occupations for the female super-set, so male model is an interesting choice.

“Yep. Nightwing’s a male model.”

“No way!,” I exclaim. I mean, it makes sense in a way considering his fangirl-bait status, but still!
“And do you know what he models? Superheroes.”

Before I have time to ask, he continues. “And do you know which superhero he models? Nightwing.”

“You’re kidding,” I demand of him.

“Latest issue! He’s in the show and a guy in the audience is like ‘Hey, that guy is too good at this. He must be The Real Thing! And guess who it is?”

There is no way I could possibly guess anything at this point.

“It’s Jason Todd!,” he tells me with glee. “And they fight! On the runway!”

I am stunned. “…. get me this issue,” I tell him. Sadly, I wasn’t able to take it home in time, but I can confirm that visually that has to be what occured, despite DC’s write-up on its website.

Why could I have gotten that as a preview?
