Zatara Doesn’t Mess Around.

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009 @ 7:08 pm | What Were They Thinking, Zatara

There’s a reason most people can’t name an arch-foe for Zatara; he didn’t go much for repeat performances.

I should note that he did actually have a re-occurring foe in The Huntress (not the one you’re thinking of), but if you weren’t a hot redhead, you didn’t want to go starting any long books, if you know what I mean.

  • Whoa. He spent an hour being electrocuted, then was forced to kill himself knowing full well he wouldn't be taking anyone with him? Holy arduous executions! No wonder the whole world will be in Zatara's gratitude; imagine the alternative!

    So what happened to the kitty?

    See, now, this is what not having a "code against killing" gets for you. You don't have to put up with those madmen a second time.

    You could argue that Zatara didn't kill the villain, the villain killed himself. Then again, a less sensible hero probably would have made alittle more effort to save him...

    Er... apparently, not everybody got out... Is it just me or are there two flying corpses at each side of the crumbling tower?

    Any independent contractor who was working on the Gorilla City knew what he was getting himself into.
  • Man, Zatara is so cool with his top hat, and cheeck bones, and elegant moustache and don't get me started on how he barely moves his eyelids,... and he's a bad-ass like the naked bunny pointed out. Killing a foe like that.

    Who's the white guy in the last panel? He looks like either a slave-trader or a caricature of a jew, which was probably the same back in those days of racial caricatures...

    Zatara blew up Gorilla city??? No wonder Gorilla Grodd is so pissed off at humans!

    "There’s a reason most people can’t name an arch-foe for Zatara"

    Is it because 99%+ of the world has no idea who he was?

    Was it?

    Was it?

    "he didn’t go much for repeat performances."

    Darn. I was gonna say that.
