Just wow. The honesty, pain, everything. So...Wow. Just wow. The honesty, pain, everything. So visceral. That's a great post. <br /><br />I totally agree about the mourning aspect. That's what I heard when I read the story. Especially that Batman, and/or the Bruce part of him at least, regrets the struggle against the Joker. And I agree with your conclusion "That moment of shared humanity allows them to laugh at the absurdity of their situation." I totally felt that. I see that scene as a moment when they both step out of who they normally are. I don't know how better to articulate this than you did. I applaud you for your honesty with what must be painful experiences. But like you said, you can either brood or laugh. Who can say which is really the sane or insane response, right?
