Now, the Batman, masked vigilante of Gotham's city of underworld work and labors of crime-worry, had been busy untangling the labyrinth of gossip/darkness made despite the overground double-life ID achievements he boasted as Mr. Amlan Satan, socialite-businessman investor of eco-magazine company successes for the 'onside' words of special civilization bureaucracy walls of sanity/safety to ward-off the dark jitters of terrorism-imagery and crime-colors (for doubt!). As the Batman, hero-prince of Earth-realm, he negotiated the potential energy intelligence of siding with the (more radical) vigilante-mask 'visage' erected by his antiheroine-femme 'counterpart' of Gotham (Catwoman). Catwoman was chasing the nefarious 'Red Triangle Gang' (RTG) marshaled by the sewers-risen false-martyr orphan-grown ugly Penguin man. 'The Batman' (Mr. Amlan Satan) wondered how to down the Penguin and if Catwoman was an ally worth Facebook poke (for doubt!).

PENGUIN: Max, you're my 'great' capitalist ally of this Gotham City, ok?

MAX: What's this game-challenge of daring the Batman to meet you underneath?

PENGUIN: I already 'sullied' Batman's prestige in social media with chemistry-word.

MAX: Yes, I understand that, Mister Penguin...your slander of his acid-guns, ha.

PENGUIN: I wanted to see if there'd been chance to draw in his girlfriend (too).

MAX: So, you ruin the Batman for his acid-prowess and magnetize him to a lady.

PENGUIN: By daring the Batman to make maze-run in sewers, we bring in his girl.

MAX: Aha, folks in Gotham's city gibberish-gossip that the two heroes challenge.

PENGUIN: The Batman's lady-ally of sorts shall try to aid him in our sewer-game.

MAX: This is like the Apocalypse of your cast mad-city, all for my profit, wow.

PENGUIN: Yes, while we martyrize ourselves, you profit from your eco-ads.

MAX: Facebook-like, Mister Penguin (ok!).

THE BATMAN: Join me?
CATWOMAN: How'd I resist, fool?
THE BATMAN: This Penguin's already cast my acid-weapons as anti-Catholic, wow.

CATWOMAN: Well, this media-hyped game-challenge for 'heroics' he made is art.

THE BATMAN: He wrote, "Sewer run for an acid-weapon lunatic for my medicine."

CATWOMAN: He means to ruin you by Gotham's gossip and make an eco-lie, fool!

THE BATMAN: Join me?
CATWOMAN: This is all profiting that vile capitalist, Batman...you know?

THE BATMAN: Yes, the 'great' Max is nothing less than a disasters-profiteer.

CATWOMAN: Alright, hero...I'll go to the sewer-game with ya for some romance.

THE BATMAN: I'll make sure Penguin's got no pre-made trick to destroy us both!

CATWOMAN: Selfie-like (for movies).

Sure, Catwoman and the Batman were lured/cajoled into a joint-mission labor into the Gotham's city underground (sewers!) to outrun the bad-language for gossip crafted/erected by their (shared?) adversary, the Penguin, an ugly-man of calculated pirate-like Selfie-cleats. Penguin understood his slander of the Batman's use of acid-guns in ridding the city of Red Triangle Gang insanity could be paired-nicely with a direct media-hyped 'game' challenge of sewer-tunnels run to make stories of citizenry/leadership 'fury-hype' of the dangers of vigilantism. Catwoman knew that both she and her buddy-Batman would be sullied in their streets-aura if she didn't aid the Batman in this sewer-game and (therefore) joined him in the mission. When the two ran through Penguin's maze astonishingly unharmed, despite the fact that Penguin placed lethal alligators to eat them, and then wrestled him into drowning while he tried to shoot them with his shotgun in sewer-water, they realized they'd become special duo-image of all things Gotham City (really!) needed. Post-success, Catwoman and the Batman drummed-in street-talk that the corrupt profiteer capitalist Max had been plotting to veil the Penguin's evils with bad-lies about chemical war access. Was this the inception of a wonder-rule?

THE END
