    Summary

    Every surface is covered with him. The Bat. Sheets and sheets of paper plaster the walls, newspaper clippings and photographs that are all covered in frenzied, colourful marks. Crude drawings frame the pictures, rough like the painstakingly heartfelt crayon of a child, the same bats and birds and clowns repeated over and over again.

    It’s like a strange graveyard where all things caped go to die, a dumping ground for all of the scraps of fabric and batarangs and broken gadgetry that the Batman has ever left behind. It’s scary, the sheer amount of it; the way that the spots of black seem to look down and corner him as though the caped freak is really in the room watching. Tiny, gleaming dots of white peer out from plastic cowls, an army of faux batmen keeping guard from the floor and the shelf and the bedside table, surrounding him from all sides.

    Tommy has never been a religious man, can’t say he’s even set foot in a church since he was little (not since his ma died) but he has the strangest feeling that he’s looking at something unholy.

    Or, when Joker’s henchman is called in by the boss, he finds more than what he’d bargained for.
