The fog that hung over the city of Blüdhaven matched Tim’s mood so perfectly, he could have ordered it up off a menu. ‘I’ll have the gloom and doom fog with a side order of pollution, please.’

“Hey, if we sent all the criminals to some empty continent and just left them there to die and showed up like fifty years later like ‘sup?’ what do you think they’d say?”

A woman has a close male friend. This means that he is probably interested in her, which is why he hangs around so much. She sees him strictly as a friend. This always starts out with, you’re a great guy, but I don’t like you in that way. This is roughly the equivalent for the guy of going to a job interview and the company saying, You have a great resume, you have all the qualifications we are looking for, but we’re not going to hire you. We will, however, use your resume as the basis for comparison for all other applicants. But, we’re going to hire somebody who is far less qualified and is probably an alcoholic. And if he doesn’t work out, we’ll hire somebody else, but still not you. In fact, we will never hire you. But we will call you from time to time to complain about the person that we hired.

The problem with America is stupidity. I’m not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don’t we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

“There’s gotta be something else we can do. I don’t like talking to Batman at all, but the thought of telling him this? You know how mad Garth gets when we eat tuna fish sandwiches in front of him? It’s like that, only it’s Batman, and the sandwiches are his parents.”

He took the stairs two at a time, (once nearly three -but the castle stretched itself to catch him), and at a very fast run, he ran so fast the pictures were a blur, in fact, he ran so fast that it took him a minute or so to realise he’d crashed.

The man that most often had the ball kept throwing it at the man with the odd-shaped staff. This didn’t make sense to Cassie. He was definitely trying to hit the ball with the staff, but she couldn’t tell if he was angry because he missed or because the man kept throwing it at him. Every time the ball was thrown, the man would swing, and the man behind him in the funny mask would catch it. Cassie could think of eighty-three different ways to use the staff to get the ball from the man in the mask.

Batman crouched on his perch atop a local museum, completely enveloped by the shadows around him. He hated Wakefield Wharf in the summer. The seeping heat and coastal mist combined to create a dank, humid environment that made him sweat much more than usual. Sweat underneath his fearsome cowl was always an unwelcome experience, causing the Kevlar/Nomex material to chafe his skin and scalp. Such was the life of a crimefighter, he supposed. Because of his extreme dislike of the area’s climate, Batman made it one of the sections of the city that was known to be his. His voice became deeper in the Wharf; he made his attacks more personal, his justice more severe. It was most often the criminals he caught in the Wharf that spoke of him as a demon or wraith, and he preferred it that way. The more forbidding his reputation in the area, the less frequent his visits would have to be. As a result, Bruce Wayne would require fewer facials. Bruce Wayne hates facials.

“According to the medical examiner, we have us a possible homicide. Probably occurred sometime earlier this evening before seven.”

“And what makes the ME think it’s a homicide?”

“‘Cause the stiff’s got a six-inch blade sticking outta his throat. Me? I wouldn’t rule it a ‘possible homicide’ exactly. I’d say it’s more likely a ‘definite’ homicide.”

It was dark now. Was this what death was like? If it was, Harry was disappointed. You weren’t supposed to feel pain when you died. And the throbbing in his head could definitely be classified as pain.

“We go there every Wednesday night, and it’s a fun place, but it’s full of loose women. My own problem with that is venereal disease, which is disabilitating right, especially for a soldier. And it’s irresponsible to the rest of your unit as well, right. You’ve been under attack for days, there’s a soldier down, he’s wounded, gangrene’s setting in, ‘who’s used all the penicillin?’ ‘Oh, Mark Paxson sir, he’s got knobrot off some tart.’”
