Batman Begins… Badly
Oh, come on. Batman didn’t immediately start out as the world’s greatest detective with a plan for every emergency and contingency — he had to get there over time, and with experience. You know Bruce must have had a few rough nights like this when he was first starting out. The real tragedy is that if this had actually been included in Batman: Year One, it would still be less awful than Kevin Smith’s bladder spasm bullshit. (Via Geeks Are Sexy)
About The Author
Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
