God, Jon, you draw the best Alfred.

This is the best possible way to start my day. (Well. A really great way to start my day.)

I'm thinking Alfred is watching food network and thinking how much he'd like one of those wand mixer/food processors.

(they are super cool. bat-cool, even)

If they made comics like this, more kids would be reading comics. (I think I've said this before about your work.)

Well, except the kids who like Batman, then they'd write me angry, wholly misguided letters of complaint about how it's Superman who really sucks ...

Dude, I'm enjoying these more and more. I can't believe how awesome you made Alfred without him saying anything.

You know, this is one of those asides you're welcome to skip, because it is pure nerd BUT: Honestly, if I were given the reins to writing the mainstream Batman comic, I'd totally make Alfred a figment of Batman's imagination. Like, Alfred really died something like five or six years ago and Batman's been hallucinating Alfred hanging around ever since, giving him advice and being all fatherly and stuff. Or just watching TV silently and Batman's talking to an empty cave, something like that.

I love that your Bat-Man comic is inspired by Arthur 2: On the Rocks.

Surely you're not implying that a reference to an Arthur sequel could be over anyone's head?...

I've never seen it, is John Gielgud a phantom or something?

Yeah, he gives Arthur advice from beyond the grave, a plot device that is either:

a) a heartwarming example of magical realism.
b) a chilling warning about the hallucinatory effects of dypsomania
c) John Gielgud picking up a check
d) all of the above.

Eventually once your book got popular and Phantom Alfred became canon there'd be jerks making it into Calvin and Hobbes references with a little stuffed Alfred and ... yeah. I don't have to say the rest.

Batman pissing on a Chevy.

Man, Li'l Bush is exactly the reason I didn't call this Li'l Batman; I'd hate to be associated with that utter utter crap cartoon.

Man, Li'l Bush. Way to be only a little funny in 2002.

Whew. I was pretty worried my clumsy attempt at humor would actually insult you.

And yeah, that was pretty much my Ma's reaction to the commercial. "A little too late for that shit."

I can imagine your Batman singing Danny Elfman's Batman theme as he's driving... and then he takes his hands off the wheel to "conduct" an imaginary orchestra...
