He's Batman. I'm going to assume that he's gone into hiding and will emerge when the time is right. Don't tell me otherwise.

I always liked Batman more than Superman. Superman had three weaknesses, Kryptonite, magic and the need to protect the people he cared for, whereas Batman had more frailties and needed more cunning and stealth to survive, which is why he was so well portrayed by Adam. He is (I could use 'was' but "is" is more appropriate) my favorite Batman, and I think I'll start getting more of the episodes on iTunes. I always wanted to be able to fight and defend myself like Adam's Batman.
But what I really wanted was the Batmobile. Now THAT was an automobile! I loved the emergency Bat-Turn, with the toggle handle and the chutes billowing out from behind. That was an awesome special effect!_________________ If you cannot inspire yourself to read a book about women's basketball, or any book about women's sports, you cannot inspire any young girl or boy to write a book about them. http://www.lulu.com/spotlight/Richardstrek |
