NOTE FROM DAVE:

June releases will include a graphic novel in which Batman
travels to Hong Kong, gets involved in gang wars and teams
up with the local hero. Sounds like a topic to me…

The Top 9 Surprises in the
“Batman: Hong Kong” Graphic Novel

9> Hong Kong residents still pissed off about the Green Hornet/Batman crossover. Kato should TOTALLY have kicked Robin’s ass.

8> Despite his lack of superhuman powers, Batman can suddenly kick dozens of attackers without ever touching the ground.

7> Mouth movement and word balloons are now inexplicably out of sync.

6> Who knew the utility belt included a can of “Giant Radioactive Reptile Repellent Spray?”

5> One hundred and twenty pages of Jackie Chan kicking Batman’s ass all over the freaking city, baby!

4> Sweatshop, shmetshop. Where else you gonna get Batarangs at $15 a dozen?

3> The slow motion dive with a Batarang in each hand just looks silly.

2> Special guest appearance by Hong-Kong Phooey.

and the Number 1 Surprise in the “Batman: Hong Kong” Graphic
Novel…

1> An hour later, you want to read another comic.
