Is that the Spectre he's talking to in the morgue?

[cyberghostface]

He's not referred to as such but that's the impression I got.

Ooh, that's chilling.

I know that's unrelated to this issue, but how come the literal superdickery caused this initiative to be completely restructured?

Re: Ooh, that's chilling.

I think there were some leadership shifts behind the scenes and DC wasn't prepared for the level of controversy and attention the Batdong received. Meanwhile the next issue had Batman strangling Harley after she tried to rape him and no one cared.

Seriously, you can have bare breasts, explicit sex and graphic violence, but a single penis is enough to shift the whole thing from near free reign to show/write whatever to show/write almost whatever?

Why didn't anyone bring that up about Batman and Harley, anyway?

Hey Specter? Go fuck yourself.

I think if anyone ever gets a mulligan on a kill, its for killing the Joker.

Actually, better question, why didn't YOU do anything about the Joker? I mean where were you all the times he murdered people? Where were you when he beat Jason Todd to death or when he crippled Barbra Gordan, or when he unleashed an army of jokerized criminals on the world?

But oh no, Batman kills him. Hell, not even kill him, refuses to save him going by the scans, and you decide its time to bring the hammer down.

Oh and it turns out Joker isn't really dead. Boy Specter is gonna feel foolish when Joker lights a puppy orphanage on fire next week and Batman isn't there to stop him.

If I were Batman I'd demand to speak to Specter's manager.

"Actually, better question, why didn't YOU do anything about the Joker?"

He actually tried once but Batman came to Joker's rescue:

Oh. Okay then.

Wow, Bruce really wrote himself into a corner on that one huh?

I can imagine Azzarello thinking, "Hmm, how to end this... I know! With a gratuitous yoinking from The Killing Joke."
