> with a fellow named... well let's just call him "Steve."

> Steve was certainly an amicable enough sport. We talked about the upcoming holidays and our plans. Comics were a topic of coversation. He and I discussed the current state of both our pull lists, of whether or not comics will die out because of trades and digital downloads, and each one of us recommended series that have been collected to consider. It was all very amicable.
>
> Until we started to discuss the Parodyverse, and Steve made some comments that were striking in their tenor. He mused about "Hatman" being "killed off." Words like "straight man" and "no character development" were used.
>
> I was stunned. Then appalled. Then angry. My rage, if not white hot, was a definite off-white. Ecru, maybe. Or Mother of Pearl. I furiously pointed out a couple of great things about our Capped Crusader to Steve, things I'll post later in this thread. But what I want to do first is turn to you, readers and writers of the PVB, and have you share your own thoughts on what makes Hatty irreplaceable in the Parodyverse. What he does that no other hero can, and what he could do that no other hero couldn't to make him even greater.
> So please, take a few minutes and let Steve know why Hatman rocks.
>
> Because, you know, he'd do it for you.
