PROBLEM, BATMAN???

[box_in_the_box]

And for an awkward fusion of Silver Age and more modern comics styles, it could have gone a lot worse:

"Drop that coin, Two-Face! The only thing you'll be tossing is SALADS! In PRISON!"
"He means that they'll make you stick your tongue up other guys' butts! That's the joke!"
"Shut up, Robin. Just ... shut up. You ruin everything."

What other novels do you think are on Golden Age Two-Face's bookshelf? The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, naturally, but what else? My votes are for The Double by Dostoevsky and The Cloven Viscount by Italo Calvino. Any other suggestions?

I'm much more interested in his porn DVD library. We've already discussed his likely proclivity for BI-sexual stuff (both female AND male), but I also see there being a lot of interracial material on his shelf (the stark contrast of black-on-white fucking would be especially compelling to him), plus ... do I even need to say it? DOUBLE-penetration ahoy! Indeed, I could actually imagine an adult-rated version of a crazy Sprang-era scheme in which he takes over a porn production and tries to get the actresses to achieve the mythical DVDA (as a South Park fan, you shouldn't need to look that one up). Just IMAGINE what the oversized props would be!

... See, I address the topics that no one else covers in their replies to you. That makes me valuable.

Box, you're my favorite.

Admit it; Two-Face's double-dildo would be a better story than "One-Face."

[bitemetechie]

So long as he's actually seducing and not raping, then...yes. Yes, it would be.

You act like we've never had that exact discussion.

...but didn't we have it like, yesterday? Box is keeping up!

Oh god, cannot unsee.

Also: oh god, cannot unread.

"When adult film producer Sleazio Scuzzoni found himself owing favors to folks on the wrong side of the law, who were ready to fit him for cement overshoes, he made an even worse mistake by enlisting the aid of one of Batman's most horrific enemies for protection! The one thing that Scuzzoni didn't count on was the impossible PRICE that the former upstanding man of law and virtue once known as Harvey Dent would demand of the filth merchant and the denizens of his nest of onscreen sin! Now, the wayward young women who had fallen in with Scuzzoni are in need of vaginal reconstruction surgery, and Batman and Robin had better watch their backs, as they face the return of TWO-FACE, with his DIABOLICAL DOUBLE-DILDO OF DOOM!!!"
