Left At The Alter.....

Poor Batman.



He got left at the alter and made to look like a sad chump.


In case I'm spoiling Batman#50 for you (which I couldn't have because DC let the New York Times do that already) Batman and and long-time cock tease/fuck buddy/frenemy Catwoman did NOT get married after all the specials and stories leading one to presume DC was finally going to pull the trigger and marry off one of it's longtime confirmed bachelors in one Bruce Wayne.

But alas, it wasn't meant to be.

The official reason given by the runaway bride, is that Batman needs to be miserable in order to be Batman effectively, and a happy Batman would be a bad Batman, as in a Batman bad at his job because that's what happens when you get married.....I guess.

So she (the writer Tom King and editorial) decided to sacrifice her/their happiness so that he could be Batman he could be....single and unattached. You know, happy for a change.

Yeah, dumb AF I know. 

It's pretty much a bullshit reason, since we all know the Earth-2 versions of Batman and Catwoman sure as hell didn't have any problems getting hitched, with Batman continuing to be Batman well after they got married until he the day he decided to retire and become commissioner of Gotham. 



Plus we got The Huntress from the holy union.


    Personally I was 50/50 on the whole deal myself.



One one hand it would've been interesting to see it happen, not to mention finally making new stories even more interesting now that this new dynamic would be in place with a new addition to the Bat-Family.

I had a strip in mind to discuss all this, but passed because it'd be too long, and probably not funny enough.

Basically Damien would wonder, if Batman and Catwoman weren't getting married, if that meant she wouldn't be his new mommy anymore.

Yeah, probably. Plus pointing out that your real mom, Talia, would have a HUGE bitch-fit over that is a massive understatement.

Anyhoo, yeah Batman and Catwoman could've been happy....even the though on the other hand it would've eventually gotten dissolved/undone via some sort of CRISIS event DC's so fond of rolling out every so often.

Personally I think Selina's being dumb as hell. If she had decided to go through with it and marry Bruce, all she'd have to due is consummate the marriage, what how ever long it takes before she could qualify for alimony, and divorce his ass and being sitting pretty financially for a good long while.

Of course, that's provided Mr. Thinks of every contingency wouldn't have had her sign a prenup just in case.

    Poor Batman.



At least it gave us this:

He's got a point though. Depends on who you ask.....

"Love and Bat-Marriage, Love and Bat-Marriage..."

So apparently this happened......


I'm not even mad about it actually.

I look at it like this, let's see where this is headed. She hasn't said yes yet, even though I would think after all these years the answer would be a forgone conclusion.

If nothing else, if you hate it already and think Bruce should stay single and unmarried, then this could all easily be temporary, as is usually the case with these things. It won't last long.

Unless DC wants it to?

Bear in mind this is right after Batman and Bane went to war again against each other, and Batman had just seen his father again( well the Flashpoint version of his father) before he disappeared...yet again, beg him to quit being Batman and just live for himself instead trying to get revenge for parents.

So that's where his head was I guess.

Oh, and is Bruce just going to conveniently forget that Selena used to be, until recently before the newest reboot, a crime boss in the NU52? And didn't she kill people or was at the very least responsible for any deaths that occurred by members of her crew?

I guess not.

Still, I have to say the whole thing was pretty romantic, especially the part where Bruce proposes to Selena with the very same diamond she had stolen years earlier. Apparently he never returned it to the owners, and instead bought it because he knew someday he would need it. Now THAT'S the sort of planning ahead Batman's known for.

Good for him.
You can see this all go down in the recent issue of Batman, Batman#24, which should be out this week,

Cat Skat Fever!

What's up People?
Have a good weekend?

Did it in any way shape or form, look a little like this?

The End

Man, haven't we all been there a time or two, am I right?;)

Extra:

Cat-Tastrophe

What's up people, and Happy Columbus Day.
How was the weekend? Good? Bad?

Mine was decent enough, but nothing too noteworthy....

Any Cat owners in the house?
If so, this one's for you......

The End

Again, Cat owners no doubt know all about such joyous scenes of carnage and destruction like this....some of them are all-too familiar with this.

Super Creep

Ah, tis' Monday!

How was your weekend people? Mine was the right amount of craziness, so no complaints there.
Moving on into today's skit, I just happened to be watching the movie Superbad at the time, and then this scene kinda' popped out at me as something to try:

Yep, that scene. Oh this is gonna' be fun:)

The End

Okay, so maybe it didn't happen exactly like that......but it should've;)
