The Batman Adventures/Tear Jerker

At their best, the Batman Adventures books had tragedy as heart-rending as the animated series that it is based on.


 * Gotham Adventures #13, in which the Threatening Trio
 * The ending of Batman & Robin Adventures #7.
 * The tribute to DC artist Mike Parobeck in Batman & Robin Adventures Annual #1.
 * "No, Ms. Gleeson. The person you described....was never here...."
 * Talia to Batman, right after her Face Heel Turn: "If I had told you, we wouldn't have had Paris...."
 * "We were married on a snowy Christmas day. Nora loved the snow. I thought it....sad that there would be none this year. And I wouldn't want my wife to be sad tonight."
 * Mad Love. It holds even more weight than the cartoon adaptation, and you can't help but pity Harley.
 * "I...I might actually be crazy."
