March 1987. Batman meets Sherlock Holmes in the 50th anniversary issue of DETECTIVE COMICS, written by Mike W. Barr.

The figures behind Ralph at the center of the first panel are Mary Watson, granddaughter of Dr. Watson, and her fiancée Thomas Moriarty, a blameless descendant of Holmes' old enemy. This ultimately isn't a terribly good story, although it has some nice art, but Alan Davis' marvelous depiction of the aged Holmes makes it all worthwhile.

SLAM BRADLEY. One of the first detectives of DETECTIVE COMICS. I did this to study the painting style of the genius J.C. Leyendecker.

GOTHAM CITY YEAR ONE no.1 • cover art • Ryan Sook [Oct 2022]

There once was a shining city on the water, a home for families, hope, and prosperity. It was Gotham and it was glorious. The story of its fall from grace, the legend that would birth the Bat, has remained untold for 80 years. That’s about to change. Superstar creators Tom King and Phil Hester team up for the first time to tell the definitive origin of Gotham City: how it became the cesspool of violence and corruption it is today, and how it harbored and then unleashed the sin that led to the rise of the Dark Knight. Two generations before Batman, private investigator Slam Bradley gets tangled in the "kidnapping of the century" as the infant Wayne heir disappears in the night...and so begins a brutal, hard-boiled, epic tale of a man living on the edge and a city about to burn.

[inamindfarfaraway]

So I love this

Someone: The whole point of Batman’s character is that he’s always alone and miserable and can’t form any real, lasting relationships.

Reality: Alfred Pennyworth, Jim Gordon, Clark Kent, Diana Prince, Selina Kyle, Talia al Ghul, Dick Grayson, Barbara Gordon, Jason Todd, Tim Drake, Cassandra Cain, Stephanie Brown, Damian Wayne, Duke Thomas…

But I would also like more of

Someone: The whole point of Catwoman’s character is that she’s always alone and miserable and can’t form any real, lasting relationships.

Reality: Maggie Kyle, Holly Robinson, Bruce Wayne, Karon, Slam Bradley, Stephanie Brown, Kitrina Falcone, Leslie Thompkins, Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, the Alleytown Strays…
