Batman: Knightwatch #5









Second story. Invasion of the owlmen. Kids try to come up with stories for a comic . At the end. You found out the kids are part of Batman “Nightwatch” surveillance crew.

Don't lie, Dick. I'm sure Bruce dropped you in the lion enclosure at least half a dozen times.

How else do you teach children how to fight random big cats? Gotta be prepared for sudden wildlife themed badguys, we all know that.

I mean, Catwoman AND Catman are both part of Bat's Dick-Robin-era stories, so you're not wrong.

Well, Catwoman did cover him with catnip and try to drop him into a pit of hungry tigers in that Batman 66 episode...

How does this lighthearted, kid-oriented take make Bruce seem like even *more* of a dick?

Please include which comic title and number it is your scans are from.

Well...they aren't wrong about the hyenas. They can eat a lot and have the bite force needed to crush bones with ease. Hyenas don't leave much behind when they finish a meal.

This feels like it should be required reading for every elementary school student learning about hyenas.

It does seem to cover the basics. They aren't scavengers, they don't live off in some elephant graveyard away from lions who sound like James Earl Jones, they don't laugh much...since the laughter is a sign of submission or fear...

That's Gotham for you. Look, up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane, it's Catwoman! 😻

I did not know DC was already publishing a Baker Street Irregulars months before Sherlock hit Public Domain.

Joking aside, it does kinda feel like they just rebranded "We Are Robin" without giving credit to Duke and co.
