Alfred Pennyworth and Brexit
In these current times that has seen UK politics it is curious to find a 25 year old piece of fiction that dealt with the matter and of all things it is a comic book.. Nightwing: Alfred's Return sees Dick Grayson the first Robin under his new title of Nightwing searching Bruce Wayne's butler Alfred Pennyworth after he left him due to his stubbornness after his back had been broken by the villain Bane. Along the way the pair ran foul of a cabal of indurstists and military planning to take over the UK being fed with EU rules. A plot to destroy the Channel Tunnel is foiled. But what is striking the language of the cabal is not disimaller to real life Euro sceptics.
Nightwint; Afredd's Return's can be found in the Batman: Troika collected edition paperback
