January 17, 1976

    Yesterday was rough. I was standing outside Gotham Tower. We were ordered to keep civilians away from the tower while Batman faced off against the Joker. An ordinary day.
    We all saw it. Batman fell from the top floor and landed splat on the pavement. No second chances and no death saves. He was just dead.
"Where did I put my paper?" I looked around.
"Nancy," I shouted. "Can I borrow a sheet of paper?"
"Why?" A scratchy old voice responded
"I need to type up a letter"
