Batman is faced with a decision he can no longer delay..........

.....having been relegated to a lowly sub-metro depot, Bruce ponders an all black color scheme for his do-over on the old city route 17 spitcan,now affectionately monikered "King Alfred" after the beloved Wayne family retainer .....poor substitutes for the Batmobile and his beloved Bat-Cave,both victims of gentrification, this is now the lot of the Dark Knight

                                                                               Batquandry - Part 1

 

Bruce Wayne tried to reconcile his inner rage at having to sell the Bat Cave to pay the massive amount of back taxes on the property. How dare they demand back payment for all those decades!  What happened to the generations of appreciative Mayors and city councilors who turned a blind eye to such things in appreciation for the countless times he and The Boy Wonder had saved Gotham and its citizens from evil villains like The Joker, The Bane, The Riddler, The Scarecrow and that nasty little tramp Cat Woman, just to name a few.....although he had to concede that the curvaceous Feline Femme Fatale still made his Bat parts tingle.....oh mama!  Regaining his train of thought and adjusting his Bat Briefs, Bruce could not believe that the Gotham City zoning commission had agreed to sell a Chinese consortium his cave property for a bloated price, obviously a money laundering scheme, and allow them to redevelop it into a mall and park and ride station for rapid transit.  Then to relocate him to a decommissioned subway underground station as an alternative was such an insult, which seemed to reveal that they felt his day had come and gone. Obviously this latest generation of All Inclusive, We, Me, politically correctness focused, enlightened, do-gooder politicians know nothing of how the real world works, Bruce fumed.  Their naivety about the evil forces that lurk in the shadows was shocking.  My God they had even, in their environmental zeal, declared the Batmobile to be EPA non-compliant and a noise by-law breaker and had placed it in storage as a future museum piece.  "Next thing it will be me they want in a museum....they must think I'm passe" Bruce thought.   Mind you, it didn't help his Bat Man macho reputation much when The Boy Wonder had recently revealed during a media interview that he had been considering finally ending his long standing emotional inner turmoil and going "Kaitlen Jenner", as he described it.  Adding insult to injury city council had replaced his legendary ride with a mileaged out Bedford OB bus they had shipped over from England.  They had been very impressed with it because it had provenance in it's transport of tourists for decades to Stonehenge on the Salisbury Plain.  How this trumped his legendary exploits in the Batmobile, fighting evil at every turn, left Bruce incredulous.  It occurred to Bruce Wayne that he had indeed reached a fork in the road in his Batlife of fighting the forces of darkness and it was now up to him to decide his fate....and ultimately the fate of his beloved Gotham City............
