I thought you were going to show his first appearance in #10 where we see what an utterly sick bastard the Corinthian is in a single page.

(Look, I like a little fantasy tying-up and imperilment as much as the next Dick Grayson obsessive, but the revulsion I feel looking at the page of the poor terrified sex worker kid as Corinthian prepares to murder him, reassures me that I'm not a completely lost cause)

Agh, I forgot about that scene. Well, this one's kind of fucked up too, isn't it?

Where did Gaiman dig up these switchblade-wielding gay hustler stereotypes, from the pages of an early 80s Jim Shooter book?
