Happy Birthday!

69 years ago today, in Detective Comics #27, a hero was introduced to the world.

Happy Birthday, Batman!

To honor his birthday, you should make an effort to endanger the life of a young child today. Either that, or take the law into your own hands and capture a criminal for the police. Your choice.

May is International Victor Hugo Month

You doubt the accuracy of this? Proof. Any arguments? I thought not.

No, I won’t post something every day honoring the life of the great poet, novelist, artist, and politician.

However, to begin the month, since few know he was an artist as well as a writer, I will share one of his paintings.

As well as a link to a poem of his that was an exhibit in the Chicago Haymarket Square Trial – Because today is also May Day/Labor Day for most of the world.

And for those who want to learn more about this great man, I recommend the website Victor Hugo Central.
