I just can't get over this. Batman's acting like something approaching a decent human being. Batman.
Did I mention he's acting like a decent human being?
...and that he evidently now has a daughter?
(Ignore the fact that I haven't just cropped these pages for pertinent info. I have a migraine and I still have to pack for my plane flight tomorrow at 7am.)
Oh, I know there's no hard proof... I mean he's ONLY showing up at her house offering a scholarship to his illegitimate child that he can never acknowledge because it would put her life at risk...
and carrying a teddybear....
I mean, REALLY. Would BATMAN carry around a teddybear for just ANY kid?
But if you really want proof: hears a page from earlier in the issue:
It could be a 'coincidence.' but if it is... allow me my denial.
