Makes me dread Batman #17 even more.

Actually, what made me dread Batman #17 even more was this week's Teen Titans, where Joker did indeed have two silver platters... :O

Just gotta remind myself that they said that Snyder can MAIM a character, not kill him...

I'm pretty sure the Old Globe is currently a parking lot (or, as Wikipedia now tells me, in San Diego). Isn't this Shakespeare's Globe?

[pyrrhocorax]

We have a nice new replica Globe now :) It's really very well done and impressive!

[shadowpsykie]

wow... :D

[darkknightjrk]

Yeah, methinks this is probably the best issue Tomasi's ever written for B&R. XD

Oh, Bruce. What sort of example are setting to young Damian by talking sass to Alfred?

[aeka]

I'm confused here. Wasn't Damian written as a fan of Shakespeare when he named his dog Titus? After the Shakespeare play and not the actual guy it was based on? Or does this mean that he's selective of the 'classics' he enjoys and found this particular one boring?

[mrstatham]

I hope it just means he considers particular ones boring. Which would be a good, realistic approach, because lord knows, I love Richard III, but can't stand Romeo and Juliet. So.. Hopefully the latter.

[darkknightjrk]

Same--always thought the tragedies were more interesting than the comedies...

[mrstatham]

I think it doesn't help, in my case, that whilst I was in High School, we had to read Romeo and Juliet on an almost yearly basis. And, whilst I was there, it was the period when the Baz Luhrman version came out. So I enjoy that film well enough, but it was just, like, a case of severe over-exposure, really. It also doesn't help that I have a major, major attachment to Ian McKellen's take on Richard III.

To be fair, I could see Damian not liking most Shakespeare plays but loving Titus Andronicus, which was the most cartoonishly gory out of all of them.

I laughed out loud-- literally, I'm sure my wife won't be pleased at this hour-- at the last panel.

Comics need more moments like these.
