I'm a 35 year old Canadian living in Ontario. I read comics, I love to draw and I collect comic art. I also teach karate, play hockey, and am a dad to 3 girls! My comic book passion lies with Batman and his pals with Nightwing taking a very close #2 favourite position. I began collecting comic art in 2013 and I have several commissions done by Ken Lashley and an amazing Francis Manapul Batman. As well I have sold a few of my own creations!

No. 5:  He's Plotting Against You

BAK_Sshot015-620x350

This aspect of Batman's psyche has been seen in nearly every medium that the character is involved in.

Let's be clear, I don't mean he's plotting how to stop the Joker. I mean he's plotting how - specifically - to put down every member of the Justice League.  In Tower Of Babel this idea is presented to us, and then it's used again as the basis for the animated movie Justice League: Doom.  He's done it to Superman in Batman: The Animated Series, and once told Martian Manhunter (in Justice League: A New Frontier) that all he needs to eliminate him is "a penny for a book of matches" .

We are finally about to see the idea come to life in theaters too in Batman v Superman.

Is Batman plotting against you right now? You bet he is!
