Chainsaw Bat-Man is the most normal thing in #AbsoluteBatman. Among the references I have noticed in the latest issue:
- Berserk: the Eclipse arc, Behelits, nu-Griffith
- Resident Evil 2: Umbrella forces, William Birking, the G-Virus (eye on shoulder included)
- Legacy of Kain: Soul reaver: Fucking YES, when Batman loses the breather he adjusts the cape in the same was as Raziel does.
It's a new generation of artists that were 90's / early 2000s kids. My generation.
Mark, my words: Absolute Robin is 100% Thomas Wayne Jr. The child they never told Bruce about.
I feel it, feel it in my bones and my spirit, especially if you read today's issue of Absolute Batman; you can see it coming together perfectly.
