Who would be the Anti-Batman? Would it be the Joker? Batman is methodical and calculated, predictable even. He has a Bat-cave, drives the Bat-mobile, and throws Batarangs. On the flip side Joker is wild and crazy, unpredictable, but still has Joker gas and likes to make people “smile”. But what if there was an Anti-Batman?

But will this lead up to a new villain?
Read on for spoilers. There are no pictures and the text is not redacted. Read on only if you don’t mind spoilers. Continue reading “Spoilers: Is Batman #38 Leading Up To an Anti-Batman?”
