Synopsis for "A Tragedy"
- Synopsis not yet written
Notes
- Alan Grant previously wrote the one-shot Batman/Demon, and this is a spiritual sequel.
- This story presents an alternate version of Gotham City. They have modern technology such as guns, but the architecture and clothing are distinctly medieval. There is also a full moon every night, which is explained as an "orbital eccentricity."
- The story is book-ended by two famous quotes about tragedy.
The world is a comedy to those that think, a tragedy to those that feel.
— Horace Walpole
A perfect tragedy is the noblest production of human nature.
— Joseph Addison
Trivia
- The armies of Metropolis use a Superman logo as the crest on their shields. This is only seen half-covered in one panel, and there are no other references to Superman in the story.
