I don't think Frank did that.
I think people who read Frank's story about a cranky, embittered old Batman and thought, "That's the way Batman should be in his thirties!" did it.
The Bruce of BATMAN: YEAR ONE is having kind of an intense time, figuring things out, but there's nothing there that...

@danschkade.bsky.social I just caught up on Flash, and I cannot express just how much I love it. The artwork is PERFECT, the writing even more so. 2 questions: 1) any chance of these strips being collected? 2) Is Flash still a former polo player in this iteration of the strip?
