FINDING BATMAN Written by KEVIN CONROY HIS FLAWED HUMANITY, HIS OVERCOMING LIFE'S CHALLENGES, HIS HAVING A PUBLIC FACE AND A PRIVATE ONE--ALL THESE CHARACTERISTICS RESONATED WITH PEOPLE. Drawn & Colored by J. BONE EXACTLY THIRTY YEARS AGO, I VENTURED INTO AN AUDITION FOR A CHARACTER I KNEW LITTLE ABOUT, IN A MEDIUM I HAD NO EXPERIENCE IN. Lettered by ADITYA BIDIKAR AS KEVIN, I HELD CHRIS...CRADLING HIM AS HE RAVED AT THE VOICES PLAGUING HIM. I IMAGINED MYSELF AS YOUNG BRUCE WITNESSING MY PARENTS ATTACKED AND CRUMBLING IN FRONT OF ME. I SAW THEM LYING IN THEIR BLOOD IN THE FILTH OF CRIME ALLEY. AS BRUCE, I FELT DISORIENTED AND LOST, NOT SURE OF MY IDENTITY AS MY PARENTS WERE CRUELLY YANKED FROM ME. I FELT DISORIENTED AND LOST AS AN ACTOR WHOSE IDENTITY WAS BEING YANKED FROM HIM. YES, I CAN RELATE. IT SEEMED TO ROAR FROM THIRTY YEARS OF FRUSTRATION, CONFUSION, DENIAL, LOVE, YEARNING... YEARNING FOR WHAT? AN ANCHOR, A HARBOR, A SENSE OF SAFETY, A SENSE OF IDENTITY. A MASK OF CONFIDENCE TO THE WORLD... YES, THIS IS TERRAIN I KNOW WELL. 18. Adaptation Editor ARIANNA TURTURRO Editor JESSICA CHEN I FELT BATMAN RISING FROM DEEP WITHIN. ...AND A PRIVATE ONE RACKED BY CONFLICT AND WOUNDS. COULD I RELATE TO THAT, THEY ASKED. LET ME JUST TRY TO GET INTO THE HEAD OF THE MAN AND SEE WHERE I GO. I SAW MY OWN FATHER LYING DRUNK IN A POOL OF HIS DRIED BLOOD. AS BRUCE, I HELD THEM, COMFORTING THEM IN MY ARMS... ...AS KEVIN, I CRADLED MY BLOODY FATHER AS HE STRUGGLED FOR LIFE. WAS I MY PUBLIC FACE OR MY PRIVATE FACE? HAD I MADE TOO MANY COMPROMISES? MY HEART PULSED, I FELT MY FACE FLUSH, MY BREATH GREW DEEPER, I BEGAN TO SPEAK, AND A VOICE I DIDN'T RECOGNIZE CAME OUT. IT WAS A THROATY, HUSKY, RUMBLING SOUND THAT SHOOK MY BODY. End.
