Some Bad Things

Okay, I promised I wouldn't make fun of Absolute Batman (& His Amazing Friends).

However, I didn't promise I wouldn't let it make fun of itself.

Apparently one of those bad things is dialog.

I mean, what can I say to make that any more ridiculous than it already is?  It sounds like a quote from 

Zorro, the Gay Blade.

Actually, the line in ZTGB is "an' I'm going to dooo some terreebul theeengs ... to CHU!" But it's pretty close.

I like Nick Dragotta’s art. The storytelling is clear and he nails the “cool” moments. Sure, the Batman design is over-the-top, but after a few pages it didn’t bother me.

But… that Alfred design isn’t my favorite. I’ve taken to calling him Ra’s Alf-Ghul.

" Ra’s Alf-Ghul." ROTFL

My problem was the dialog. "I'm here to do bad things'" goes with "it was a dark and stormy night."

But, how else can we possibly know he’s there to do bad things if he doesn’t tell us? We might have thought he’s there to do good things, and when he doesn’t help nuns cross the street while coaching an inept Little League team to victory we’d get so confused.

I suppose "I'm here to do Bad Thing" is de rigeur in The Absolute Universe".
