That wacky Batman!

What can I even say here? How can't you chuckle just a bit when Bats says, "I'll miss him... I guess!"

  1. Lol. Of all things why a Jungle plane crash? Why not lost at sea or something. Lol. Whatever the case it's funny. :)

    Which comic was this scan from?!

  2. Jeez, I'm not exactly sure Falisha... I pulled it out of a Batman trade about Ra's Al Ghul's first few appearances. If you really want to know more about this, I'll see if I can find the trade. As for the jungle plane crash, that's a GREAT question! I think it's WAY better to claim that he was lost at sea and washed up on a tropical island or something. Wouldn't the authorities search the jungle for wreckage and wonder why Bruce wasn't in it?

    As for what's going on, Bats is faking Bruce Wayne's death for some reason, Nagash. I think Bats wanted to hunt down Ra's, and since he figured he'd be out of Gotham for a few weeks/months, he needed Bruce out of the way. I guess it might have looked odd if Bats left Gotham for a few weeks, and Bruce Wayne also suddenly dropped out of sight.

  3. Ohh noo X I couldn't ask you to do any work to find that. I'm sure it's a great read. And I just think the jungle seems like such an easy place to find someone.

    I mean the ocean is HUGE full of many many islands. It would be a lot harder to find him. Besides....I can see Bruce being defeated by some waves. Lol.

  4. Exactly! like you said, Falisha, it seems like it would be so much easier to find somebody lost in a jungle as opposed to somebody who was lost at sea... Oh well, go figure!

  5. I guess that sorta makes sense, though considering he's a 'rich idiot with no day job' ;) he could just go on a 'luxury cruise' or something, surely?

  6. Yeah, I guess he could have went on some sort of luxury cruise, but then there'd still be some folks on the cruise who could always say, "Hey, I didn't see Bruce Wayne on this boat with me!" With how paranoid Bats is, I'm sure he wanted Bruce Wayne somewhere where NOBODY would find him, and I guess "lost in the jungle" was the best thing he could come up with!
