| Batman to kick al-Qaeda's ass 17 February 2006 Batman may utilise his extensive knowledge of caves to fight his latest foe - al-Qaeda. Batman writer, Frank Miller, has told a comic-book convention that his upcoming novel, Holy Terror, Batman! is a piece of propaganda. "Batman kicks al-Qaeda's ass," Miller said. Miller said the comic was: "an explosion from my gut reaction of what's happening now" and "a reminder to people who seem to have forgotten who we're up against." "It just seems silly to chase around the Riddler when you've got al-Qaeda out there." His comments were posted on the internet by the entertainment site IGN.com. In the comic, Batman's hometown of Gotham City is attacked by terrorists, and the Caped Crusader sets out to settle the score. There is no scheduled publication date for the unfinished project. |
