Batman: Knight of Vengeance

Holy great initial hook and compelling subsequent plot ramifications, Batman! Cam's taking a retrospective look at all the Batman stories that have really changed and interrogated an element of the character's mythology, "what if" stories that explore the butterfly effect of one clever change and reveal something new and profound about the Caped Crusader. After some examples, he zeroes in on Knights of Vengeance, and the stunning volley of gut punches that follow from the choice to turn Thomas Wayne into Batman instead of his son Bruce. The episode ends with a lovely little ode to comic shops and the joy of immersing yourself in art and artistic communities.
