I am the Dark Knight.
From my earliest memories I was Batman. I grew up on the ‘90s Batman cartoons, having all the toys, and delegating my little brother to be Robin (and only Robin).

Oh my. Now that is amazing!
Thanks for sharing: he wrote an amazing post. (I really do think the ending of the films is their strength. I’m also still letting it influence me for the better.)
Thanks for commenting!
There’s nothing quite like trying to clear out your blog reader after being gone for a week and seeing your name in all caps across somebody’s blog post! LOL
Heh. Welcome home.
