Headline Least Likely To Ever Appear Again

Then again, given the recent fascination in the nu52 with Man-Bat, we'd get a slightly different headline.

After all, no heroes are "welcome additions" to crime-fighting right now--that wouldn't be broody or sacrificy enough. Every hero has to be Silver or Bronze Age Spider-Man or Hulk, hunted by the police or opposed by the U.S. military, constantly saving us even though we distrust and hate them.

Still there's a chance a modern Man-Bat headline wouldn't just be the "Threat Or Menace" variety.

No, the nu52 headline would go

MAN-BAT SLAUGHTERS CHILD PORNOGRAPHER WHILE HIS CHILDREN WATCH

with the sub-headline

BATMAN LOOKS ON APPROVINGLY

sigh...

From Batman Family #18 (1978)
