THE DARK KNIGHT slumped down into the chair and wiped his arm his arm over his cowl.
He felt unaccustomedly tired after a night searching vainly for clues to the latest jewel robbery at the Hearst depository.
His mood hadn’t been helped by a blazing row with Robin. He couldn’t understand his partner’s off-hand dismissal of the intrusion into the Batcave – nor his staunch defence of Electra as an honest, up-standing defender of law and order.
“I might just vote for her myself!” the Boy Wonder had shouted as he stormed out of the Batcave to some mystery appointment whose details he’d refused to divulge.
There was something strange about the teenager these days – as though the bond that had kept them together for so long had been snapped. It seemed the Boy Wonder was much happier elsewhere than at Batman’s side.
So the Caped Crusader was alone in the Batcave as he snapped on the TV to watch Electra’s campaign announcement.
The screen burst into life to show a packed room with a stage at the far end.
The running caption at the bottom read: “Electra’s Mayoral declaration: Live from City Hall.”
On the stage was a lithe, young blonde-haired girl eulogising over Electra’s credentials for the job.
She was dressed in just a pair of tight, black jogging pants and a white sports bra which did everything to accentuate her stunning body.
“Well, that’s the young male vote tied up!” laughed the unseen commentator.
“Yep, she’d get my vote,” added his partner.
The girl finished her oration with a wave to the wings and Electra slid gracefully onto the stage to wild applause and what seemed hundreds of camera flashes.
She was dressed almost demurely for her in a long, halter-neck purple dress pulled tight at the waist and cut high on the left to reveal one shapely leg.
Her hair was pulled back off her face with one long curl draped over her shoulder.
She beamed appreciatively as she took the microphone.
“Wow,” she cooed. “That was some build-up.
“And some girl, hey boys?”
Laughter rang round the audience as she winked and cast a look over at the blonde girl.
“I’m glad she’s on my side.”
Batman watched impassively as Electra through her reasons for standing for Mayor, announced a raft of vague, uncontroversial policies and generally held the room in rapture.
Then, just as she seemed to be coming to a close she added: “Oh, and one more thing.
“We all know this city has been in the grip of a frightening crimewave for the past few weeks –one which has shown no sign of abating.
“Even Batman has proven powerless to stop this rampant criminality – a fact he has frankly admitted during our various conversations together.
“I’m sure Batman would be the first to admit that his powers are now waning. Our once great protector has, unfortunately, become a stumbling, pathetic shadow of his former self – a fact no better illustrated than by the recent pictures of him lying unconscious in the gutter like a shambolic drunkard.
“If elected Mayor – or should I say, when - I would be failing in my duty if I did not bring to justice the gangsters, hoodlums and thieves holding this city to ransom.
“Therefore - with the full backing of Commissioner Gordon – I propose to establish a new Law and Order taskforce charged with hunting down this criminal element.
“It’s my very, very great pleasure to announce that Robin the Boy Wonder has agreed to head up this new initiative.”
She paused for a few seconds to take in the applause rippling around the room.
“I had hoped Robin would be here this afternoon,” she continued at last. “But – as if to demonstrate what a good choice I have made – he today single-handedly apprehended the perpetrators of this week’s Hearst depository raid. A remarkable feat, I’m sure you’ll agree.
“I’m sure that with Robin and I working hand-in-hand we can restore law and order to our streets.
“All I ask of you now is to help us by pledging your full support.”
She bowed graciously as the crowd rose in a spontaneous standing ovation.
Back in the Batcave the Caped Crusader’s face was contorted in fury. His hands shook as they violently gripped the arms of the chair.
On the screen the camera homed in close on the smiling face of Electra. Her eyes seemed to be looking directly into Batman’s – goading and taunting him.
It was as though she were slowly engineering the destruction of his whole world and enjoying every single second of it.
