Dear writers, artists, editors, and all other folks involved with the making of today’s Batman comics,
Leave the Bat-Signal alone! I get it. Showing one of the most iconic fixtures in the Batman mythology getting perverted or destroyed in some fashion is an attractive yet none-too-subtle symbolic gesture in your story, but enough is enough.
Since the New 52 began, I have seen the Bat-Signal burn-out….
Owled…
Cat-ified…
Beaten…
Crushed…
Drowned…
Stepped on….
Melted…
and used as a crucifix…
You all brought an incredibly memorable visual to your story, but can’t we agree that the giant flashlight deserves a rest? Rasputin was put through less torture than our dear Bat-signal. Just give it a year or two of illuminating the Gotham sky unmolested. Please.
That’s all I have to say about that,
Andrew Asberry
