Comment: “Holy Poor taste Batman”

((In his latest adventure, Batman will dispense with his old enemies, the Riddler and the Joker, and take on Osama bin Laden instead.))

Frank Miller (Sin City and Batman Year One) will write a graphic novel that will have Batman searching for the terrorist leader. Now, this could work, but I personally think it would be a team effort between Batman and Superman.

(("It is, not to put too fine a point on it, a piece of propaganda - Batman kicks al-Qa'eda's ass," Mr Miller told a San Francisco comic book convention. "It just seems silly to chase around the Riddler when you've got al-Qa'eda out there.

"Superman punched out Hitler. So did Captain America. That's one of the things they're there for. It's an explosion from my gut reaction of what's happening now, a reminder to people who seem to have forgotten who we're up against."))

Keep in mind that Miller has an out of continuity series called All Star Batman and Robin the boy wonder. More than likely this story will not be linked the current DC comic’s universe.
