This is What Happens When Robin Slaps Batman

I finished reading Batman: The Cult, a graphic novel that has the caped crusader kidnapped by a Cult (duh!) of creeps that worship some crazy priest guy who looks like John Smith from Pocahontas and is on more steroids than Batman himself.

The Cult is one of the best Batman graphic novels I have read and it is one of the most underrated ones. Sure, The Dark Knight Returns, Year One, The Long Halloween and The Killing Joke are among the best Batman graphic novels ever, but it amazes me that The Cult is not on that list.

Even though The Cult has a creepy and serious storyline, there was one funny panel:



That’s what happens when Robin tries to be a tough guy. His insignificant hand couldn’t deal with the blow.  It’s no wonder he got his brains bashed in Death in the Family.

Serves you right, buddy, serves you right.
