Good night, Jerry

Jerry Robinson: Janurary 1922 to December 2011
It's not a secret: I love Batman. I love Batman, not only for who and what he is, but for how those who stand with him, and against him, define him. (And, to a degree, us, his fans and followers.)

In as much, then, I loved Jerry Robinson; who brought us both Robin the Boy Wonder - Batman's greatest ally, and The Joker - his greatest nemesis.

It's a somber night in old Gotham City. The circus is quiet, now. So, too, the asylum on the hill.
