Awwwwwwww. You may not like Batman, but you sure do get him right enough to make me feel for him.

How wonderfully poignant and funny in just a few panels. I love this series. Love it to tiny pieces.

You made me sad. Why would you make me sad, Calamity Jon? Poor little guy.

I love Little Batman. I would buy a book of these.

So...wonderful.

Jon, DC will buy these from you. You can start a franchise. A whole imprint, maybe. They might even ret-con the entire DCU to make this canon.

Okay, maybe that last one was going a bit far, but still. Just print it, take it to Comic-Con and show some people.

Please.

I gotta say, these have been the highlight of my days lately. I'm not sure I have anything to sufficiently replace them in the highlight department. They will be missed.

BATS!

I daresay you did it.

You won me over on the "hung up about the fam" Batman deal.

DC would be retarded not to pick you up for something fun.

JON! You should put these all on one page--in sequential order. The only way to get them on one page right now is to click the "little-Batman" tage, which orders them last to first, doncha know.

Strip 1: Batman, hanging out at home, gets a call from the Commissioner. The Bat-Signal implies crime is afoot.

Strip 2: Batman leaves to fight crime.

Strip 3: Batman fights crime.

Strip 4: My argument unravels a bit here.

Strip 5: Batman comes home from a long night of rampage-stopping and, um, Bat summoning, to catch up on his violin lessons and clean the house.

Strip 6: Batman goes to bed after a long day.

I think that's a pretty clear (mostly) linear progression. And it should be preserved, Jon Morris. Please make an easy access page so that I may share your magic with all my friends with one easy link! I bought your book1 You OWE me. (One book, to be precise. And, it's already shipped, so maybe you don't actually owe me anything but still!)

You know, man, I know it's annoying when people are all DUDE YOU SHOULD TOTALLY ET CETERA... but I'd really like to see, in this batshit style, the origin story with Bruce in his library and the bat coming through the window and all, and how/why he gets so excited about bats.

Ha, seriously, I'm not talking about practical suggestions like yours. I'm talking about DUDE PUT LITTLE BATMAN WITH LITTLE AQUAMAN AND HE LOVES FISHES LIKE BATMAN LIKES BATS AND THEN THEY HAVE A TEA PARTY WITH THE FISHES AND BATS!!!!!

Man, I may just do that (it was, in fact, the original concept, which morphed into the six stand-alone comics). I enjoyed doing these, but also I mostly enjoyed how FAST I got them done! DANG! I was like ZOOOOOM. I did all six in three afternoons...

Don't stop, Calamity Jon! Little Batman is teh awesomesauce!!11!!

Though I have to say that today's strip was almost a golden opportunity for outing Little Batman and Alfred's secret relationship. ;)
