Is there a way to make a narrative map of this?
Via MeFi: it may be because it's early on a Sunday, but Comics Alliance's Deconstructing the Complete and Utter Insanity of 'Batman: Odyssey' made me laugh until tears were streaming down my face.
David: When you get to the second page, though... I am reminded once again about Neal Adams saying that a lot of comic will be how Batman is unable to keep up with the tech of his enemies. And here he has a 3-D display coming out of his damn belt. Batman has a crotch computer.
Laura: I prefer to think of it as a groin projector.
David: I wonder how he controls the cursor.
Laura: Now we're introduced to yet another new villain, a man named Doctor Slattern. Does Adams know what "slattern" means? Because it specifically refers to women. And it means "slut."
David: Words seem to mean so many things in this book. Although we are told that Doctor Slattern "needs help with the climax of his experiment." Maybe Doctor Slattern is in charge of all the SEXY experiments at Arkham, did you think of that?
Also, he actually wants to be called Trigger, and not like the horse. Because Batman wasn't sure about that. "Oh, this guy with guns wants to be called Trigger. I'm the world's greatest detective. It's probably after the horse, but let me ask just in case it's actually about guns."
And what ensues could possibly be considered the best rap battle in Batman history.
