I came across this awesome parody strip which Kerry Callen even took the time to make look as though they were from an old Batman comic about how Batman is a hoarder. It’s funny because my wife and I were just having a conversation about all the crap in the Batcave and how some artists make sure to include it all and others leave the Batcave a bit more spartan.

Batman is a Hoarder - by the way, the items on the bottom three panels are actual items from Detective Comics!

Batman is a Hoarder - it's funny - we're seeing a new origin for the giant penny in Scott Snyder's current Year Zero story

  1. I saw this a few days ago on Tumblr – it’s really amusing! I think m favorite thing in it is either “I am the night” – the ultimate conversation ender – or Dick and Alfred in the top corner going “We don’t even go down there anymore.” Too funny!

  2. I think my favorite moments are, from best to less:
    1. Score! in the last panel
    2. Are You Fighting Criminals to Get Their Stuff?
    3. I Am the Night
