Batman and the Case of the Circular Haiku!
Thinking about the 1960s Batman series a lot lately, prompted me to consider how often some very surreal threats loomed over the Dynamic Duo. They were to be turned into musical notes or ice cream cones or put through various other outlandish ordeals. So I wondered what would happen if "classic villain" Circular Haiku turned Batman into that most sinister of syllabic sadism? Will the Maniac of Meter crush the Caped Crusader? Does this (P)rose have the sharpest thorns of all? And will it be Haiku or HIGH NOON for our heroes? Find out in "From the Sonnet to the Slaughter House!" Arkham's gates clattered Batman had to fight his foe Circular Haiku Robin was reading Some dusty Wayne Manor book Message from Dark Knight So Robin read on "Something has occurred old chum Changed into text." "Holy Pulp Poetry! Must find some way to reverse This nefarious verse!" Batman remembered How in the past he had shown Flair for beat poetry. Ka-Pow! Zonk! Gins! Berg! Poetry Slam! Zap! Wham! Kero-Whack! Batman freed himself. Back in his body "Haiku you are out of line! Poor deluded poet." Used his punchy prose And Haiku was defeated. "Keep on Reading Kids". Batmobile sped up Haiku was brought to Justice. Arkham's gates clattered...

That's what I call Pure West!
Part of me being a weird kid. Not only did I watch Hammond Spider-Man, at the time of the release of The Dark Knight with Chrisitan Bale and Heath Ledger, I was head over heels for Adam West… When I saw Affleck being an absolute force of nature, I said to myself… he’s cool but he’s not West. Even when I saw Pattinson, my personal favorite (live action) Batman-film, I said… Damn, it was almost as good as West.
Alright, kidding. I don’t remember ever comparing Affleck to West but West was my first love and my only love. My idea, understanding of the character and interest in Batman all grew out of watching Adam West and Burt Ward gliding down poles, running around with bombs and decode the most complicated of riddles, all while still informing the importance of good grammar.
Miss you, West.
Originally planed some Allay from Minecraft but wasn't happy with the design so asked friends and family for characters.

Fanfiction Question
I'm curious, any fans out there of Nish in Eastenders or Tane in Home and Away? Also any fans of the classic 1966 Batman TV series.
I have mentioned before I write fanfics, would anyone be interested reading any of the above, just curious?
