But Batman was different, I came to Batman with all these archives and I thought how can I make this all into one story because the one story is actually a really interesting development of Batman as a character, you know, how he starts out as this young angry vigilante, then he meets this little working class carnie kid who cheers him up a little. And it’s like the emotionally frozen Bruce Wayne whose parents were killed when he was ten years old suddenly meets a twelve year old kid whose his best friend, because he’s a kid. You know, but this kid laughs, he’s had two parents shot dead and fallen into the sawdust, but he just starts laughing and gets on with it. So suddenly with the Batman stories, it all made sense. It’s here’s what would happen to an emotionally armoured twenty year old introvert who meets this crazy kid whose like “let’s go do it! Let’s kick the Joker’s arse! Let’s have a laugh!” and suddenly Batman’s smiling all the time.
