Gotham Underground

[shankie]

I at least look in on a new Bat book, you know. Gotham Underground is a 9 book series tied into the Countdown nonsense with the Suicide Squad giving Gotham villains all kinds of Hell. So far it's meh, right?

Until I tell you that Matches Malone is working for the Penguin. :D



The art is nice. And I refuse to tell you what's going on in my head when I see that panel there. Ha. The whole thing is "Oh brother!" mixed in with "Hee!" and I think at least worth a look.









And then Bane hits Matches on the head, ooh suspense. ::shrug::

I'd think that something like Alfred and Nightwing hanging out in a bar full of thugs might be, oh, I dunno... a bad idea? "Hey, I know that butler!" right? Anyway.

It doesn't completely suck, and that's something.

LOL on Gordon talking about Batman taking his underwear off. And it's canon (maybe - you never know these days - at best for now it is)! I'll admit I favour S/B but I don't mind some other forms of innuendo or slashiness. Intentional or not. Real or imagined. Thank you. :-)

Batman/Jim Gordon OTP. ::laughs::

Yet there's the Superman/Batman comic. :P

Actually I don't mind that pairing even though I have a preference. Also LOL below about stealing underwear to spook him.

Obviously, Robin needs to tell Batman Jim's comment, then actually steal a pair of his underwear from his house, then toss it on the desk as he's leaving Jim's office. Just so we the readers can see Gordon's face, and if he checks his pants.

Alternately: "Ha! I know you didn't steal these underwear off me, I wasn't wearing any today!"

And Barbara, watching via hidden cameras, suddenly feels very ill.

You know, I'm sure one of these days someone will recognize Alfred outside of the heroing community. xD. It will be bad, but amusing nonetheless.
