Batman is a Hoarder!


I continue to work on my 160 page monster comic, but I took a break to draw something that's been in the back of my mind for a while. My friend Anna Maria Cool recently mentioned she suspected Batman was a hoarder. The seed was planted. I knew I wouldn't stop thinking about it until I drew something about it. I can stop thinking about it now. Click to enlarge.


 

Btw, the objects on the bottom of page 1 are all from actual Batman stories;  Detective Comics #244, Detective Comics  #235, Detective Comics #241, respectively. (Disrespectively?)

    I love this so much, right down to the coloring bleeding onto Batman's chin

    Brilliant! I had to look twice to realise this wasn't by the original artist. Great talent!

    I think you nailed it! The old "My-parents-were-murdered-and-this-is-how-cope" line is just a cover for Bruce's hoarding compulsion.

    As a Hoarding Disorder researcher I find this inappropriately HILARIOUS (and frighteningly accurate!). Thanks :)

    Gavin, I start was very rough pencil sketches. The figures aren't really stick figures. They are ugly, bad drawings, which I trace into better pencils, which I then ink into slightly better images.

    I am really impressed with your writing skills as well as with the format to your blog. Is this a paid topic or did you modify it yourself? Either way keep up the excellent high quality writing, it is rare to peer a nice weblog like this one these days..

    Would you be ok with me printing this and hanging it on my wall? What size should it be, ideally?
