    Alfred with wheels for legs

    The idea of Bruce Wayne battling his duel identity is not a new idea, In Batman #112 "Am I Really Batman?" Bruce Wayne goes face to face with himself.  Peter Milligan being obsessed (in a good way) with the idea of dueling identities goes for his take on a similar idea.

    When I first read this years ago the take seemed so fresh.   I've recently read Batman #112, then reread this comic and the first half was not as mind blowing as I remembered.  The end was as good as I remembered and it was a treat to see how talented Peter Milligan was back in 1991.

    This comic was currently reprinted in DC comics presents Batman - Dark Knight, Dark City.  This is also suugested reading for Grant Morrison's run.

    Cheers

      This standalone tale is a serious gem. Written by Peter Milligan, this story has a definite a twilight Zone vibe to it, and is quite creepy. I loved the penciling by Tom Mandrake, it's a nice change of pace. This is a great read, and deserves to be discussed more than it does....
