joke thread: would you read an Alfred solo comic
Good thing this was labeled as a joke or I might get confused.
For real though, who wouldn't check out an Alfred comic?
HOW IS THIS A JOKE THREAD???
IF AN ALFRED COMIC WAS $300 PER 20 PAGE ISSUE I WOULD DROP EVERY OTHER TITLE ON MY PULL-LIST AND JUST BY THAT. I WOULDN'T EVEN CARE IF IT WAS GOOD OR NOT.
DON'T JOKE ABOUT MY DREAMS LIKE THAT.
Seriously though, I'd totally read an Alfred solo. Chances are we get to see some extra stuff in the mansion and bat-cave we normally don't see. We also get to see how babied bats actually is. Plus Alfred is a plane bad-ass. I think if Alfred wanted to, he could punch a hole clean through the fabrics of reality. One hit quit Supes to 5 other universes while destroying 17 others just from the shockwave of the punch. I think even The Presence would have to take a bow.

Scott Snyder and Jim Lee should both quit Superman Unchained, Justice League, and Batman to make this.
@rulerofthisuniverse: its the british swag. Galactus got nothimg on the britishmess
@martyyy15: No one can beat Alfred when it comes to Britishness. He's the Goddamn Bat-ler. (Butler, Batler? huh? Nothing? Ok then)
@martyyy15: And best title ever.
@omnibeast: Alfred vs galactus O_o
Please. Galactus would have to conquer 69 universes to even have a thought of Alfred. Let alone be seen by him or be anywhere near his presence. Alfred could twitch his pupil and Galactus would suffer the pain of 10 trillion painful, excruciating, unforgiving, and maniacal deaths in an instant, and that would be Alfred being generous.
@rulerofthisuniverse: good sir are you daft or somethimg? Dint you know who I am? Im the blasted Alfred. And haha I thought it was a good title, I even have a cover, but om tablet so cant post link. But can give link http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&site=imghp&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=s-TgUcXkLfjI4AOm6ICwAQ&q=new+52+alfred+comic+deviantart&oq=new+52+alfred+comic+deviantart&gs_l=img.3...19678.22493.0.22818.11.11.0.0.0.0.124.833.10j1.11.0....0...1c.1.19.img.qnKmAILXvh0&biw=600&bih=1024&sei=zeTgUeeLKNfJ4AOerYGgAg#biv=i%7C98%3Bd%7CZseM75sA2xCrOM%3A
@martyyy15: the cover of ALFRED UNCHAIMD #1
Good sir, may I ask if you are daft? Were you not aware of my position? To inform you, I am often known as the blasted Alfred.
ALFRED UNCHAINED!!!! BUY IT NOW!!!!!
@rulerofthisuniverse: haha yep def how he would say it, with britishness
@rulerofthisuniverse: lol you just made a terrible line into an epic one. Alfred Unchained!
But srsly, i would check that out. see his early days where he one shots the Spectre and Phantom Stranger at the same time. And then he punches so hard that he ends up in Marvel and steps on Galactus so hard that his corpse ends up in our universe.
@rulerofthisuniverse: copy and paste my link to see the cover of issue 1. On tablet so cant post direct link
Alfred solo title by Matt Fraction and David Aja.
I'd read it.
I WOULD READ THE HELL OUT OF A ALFRED SOLO! HIM DOING LAUNDRY OR MAKING TEA! ANYTHING! DC should make them backups in issues.

DC comics proudly presents: ALFRED UNCHAINED

All of this. DC make it happen, NOW!
Maybe they'll do an Alfred one shot. They are doing one for Lois Lane and the Joker's Daughter so I don't see why they can't do one for Alfred.
It's #1 issue would be DC's highest selling book of all time, higher than the death of Superman, which I believe is DC's highest selling issue..
I like it when Alfred gets an expanded role. Back during R.I.P. he was running the Outsiders and I thought that was a great idea. I'm all for Alfred getting the spotlight.
@dyslexicspeller: issue 10 Alfred vs running out of toilet paper in the upstairs second washroom. I can see it now. Alfred running in the halls carrying tea while talons attack it would be great.
It could actually be quite good to see Alfred defend the manor from some crooks who are trying to break in. That doesn't sound too bad. I've made my decision: yes, I would read an Alfred comic.
