One Perfect Moment - Robin on one of THOSE dates....

[icon_uk.insanejournal.com]

Okay, so with this post, we are NOW offically a scans_daily event! :)

Okay, quick recap, Batman has been pursuing a case in Los Angeles so rings home to see how Dick and Alfred are doing... and finds he's getting no answer, which is strange as it's after 10pm Gotham time...



I love her monologue here, it's moody and evocative and straight out of a horror film. Dala clearly IS mad, but since she's also tied up and gagged a Robin, so that's a plus!

He has a point, you CAN just here Vincent Price chuckling in the background, can't you? :)
 

I like that Dick is so used to the situation he's in it's got to the point he tests his bonds absent-mindedly, y'know, just on the off-chance.

I think at this point he's clearly come to realise that she's a little past "kinky" and probably would ignore any safety words anyway.

Hmm. She has Raven's earrings.

...oh, kink? Is there some kink around here someplace? I must've missed it.

BTW, is it just me or was Gene Colan at his best when he was doing the horror stuff back in the 70s?

Or maybe they're both Jem fans! :)

Generally agreed, his style OOZES atmosphere best suited to something like horror, but some of his other stuff, like Dardevil (Iron Man not so much) is awesome too.

I've been looking at some 70s stuff from the Digital Obtainment Method That Dare Not Speak its Name, and I notice with DC especially, even the superhero titles had a lot of crossover with the horror stuff. Ditto Dr. Strange and a few of the Marvel titles, particularly the kung fu-based ones. Sign of the times, I guess?
