[Arkham batman]: A maids choice
The first world was so determined to eliminate him and send him off to the next life, but it turns out that the world just despises him in general. Who would have thought things would turn out like this? The world wavers, trying to come to terms with the entity that has emerged within it, and the only thing keeping this being at bay is its master-or perhaps a friend? Or maybe something more? "{Giggle} Maybe you should consider taking a break for once, Master, instead of trying to impose the will of the god onto this poor clown. {Laughter} {Laughter}" "And I still can't figure out why you keep saying what your doing all the time when I've fixed you over 30 times already.."

BATMAN: Black Mirror
"He's exactly like me - it's like looking in a mirror...and my reflection is cracked." ~Bruce Wayne A new darkness the likes of which the criminal underworld of Gotham City has never seen before since the rise of the Joker, stalks its streets every night. No crime escapes its sight and no one, innocent or guilty, is safe from its rage. It feeds and grows from shadows, becoming stronger with every sinister thought, every action and drop of spilt blood. It is a creature born from tragedy - but to Bruce Wayne, it's a mirror image. BATMAN: Black Mirror is an interconnecting tale of two people who come from different places in life, yet meet in the middle to reflect opposite sides of the same being. What would've happened to Bruce after his parents' murder if he didn't have Alfred to comfort him? What if he was left to fend for himself with no one to care? What choices would he have had to make in order to survive and would his already suffocating darkness grow deeper and mixed with an endless need for violence and revenge. These are the questions Bruce constantly asks himself, but they become more profound when he meets a young orphaned Eli sitting before the Wayne's graves. He's not like other children and it disturbs Bruce that the child seems to perfectly reflect the darkest parts of his soul.Complete
