	To no one's surprise, Alfred can do the one-eyebrow thing. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	parsimonia 2009-06-16 08:31 pm UTC (link)
	And he does it so very well. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's a little known fact that Alfred actually invented the one eyebrow thing. It involved Booster Gold, a time machine, and many shenanigans. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Spock learned the eyebrow thing from Time Traveling Alfred. Alfred is just that awesome. He and Jarvis should team up. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	One of the great regrets of my life is that I cannot do the one-eyebrow thing D: (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What bugs me is that I can raise the left one, but not the right. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	darkknightjrk 2009-06-17 12:15 am UTC (link)
	I have the opposite--I can lift the right brow, but not the left. Very odd. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I wonder if it has anything to with being right-handed or left-handed? I can also wiggle my ears up and down a bit, together and separately, but wiggling the right one is harder and makes me look like I've got a twitch or something. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	taggerung301 2009-06-17 07:33 am UTC (link)
	yeah, I can only manage the left one too I think it's kind of like how some people can roll their tongues and others can't (Reply to this) (Parent)

	icon_uk 2009-06-17 10:57 am UTC (link)
	I can wiggle both ears, but only in unison. And I've always been able to do the eyebrow thing, but I'm British... (Reply to this) (Parent)

	halloweenjack 2009-06-17 12:39 pm UTC (link)
	I can do both eyebrows, but get slightly superior altitude (and, I suppose, attitude) on the left. (I'm right-handed; I can snap my right fingers, but not my left at all.) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	comicoz 2009-06-17 10:26 am UTC (link)
	I actually trained myself to do it, with both eyebrows. Yes, I watched A LOT of Star Trek as a child, why do you ask? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Barbara actually remarks on the eyebrow in The Batman. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	parsimonia 2009-06-17 06:47 am UTC (link)
	Really? Oh man, I gotta watch that show again. Do you remember what episode it was? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_octopusso248 2009-06-17 10:15 am UTC (link)
	The Invasion pt. 2, an episode which also has a surprising amount of Alfred/Lucius slash. I really love The Batman's Babs, she's just so awesome. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	unknownscribler 2009-06-17 02:26 pm UTC (link)
	Having just watched Batgirl Begins, I fully agree. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	galateus 2009-06-17 04:23 pm UTC (link)
	She really is; only thing she's missing is more fighting-Poison-Ivy time. (Seriously, can't be the only one to see subtext there....) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ex_octopusso248 2009-06-17 05:17 pm UTC (link)
	Hellz no! Total college-girl experimentation there. There's actually a 'The Batman Strikes' comic I've been trying to track down where they're especially slashy with Harley and CW. Issue #45 Gotham Girls if anyone has a copy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	parsimonia 2009-06-17 05:31 pm UTC (link)
	OMG, icon love! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	(Anonymous) 2009-06-18 09:32 pm UTC (link)
	I'd agree, but... I watched Batman and Robin. And it STILL burns. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	galateus 2009-06-20 12:14 am UTC (link)
	Batman and Robin had no Batgirl in it! Perish the thought. It just had some blonde Pennyworth hanging around who was pretending to be British for some reason. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	parsimonia 2009-06-20 11:04 am UTC (link)
	She didn't even bother to do a fake British accent! Gah! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	parsimonia 2009-06-17 05:14 pm UTC (link)
	an episode which also has a surprising amount of Alfred/Lucius slash. Hahahaha...yeah, I remember that. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	sistermagpie 2009-06-16 09:28 pm UTC (link)
	Okay, that did make me laugh. (Reply to this)

	foxhack 2009-06-16 09:43 pm UTC (link)
	Since when does Alfred have a pornostache? This doesn't even look like Willis' usual fare, art-wise. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	parsimonia 2009-06-16 09:51 pm UTC (link)
	Oh my god, I didn't even notice the moustache. Deadshot, eat your heart out. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	It's just this close to be a full on Manchu 'stache. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	caeliluminar 2009-06-17 03:24 pm UTC (link)
	My theory is he wanted to draw DCU Batman in a different way than the DCAU Batman. I liked the old style better, though. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	filbypott 2009-06-17 06:33 pm UTC (link)
	Honestly, I think the art has been slipping for a while now. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	mysteryfan 2009-06-17 12:35 pm UTC (link)
	Heh. In addition to the 'stache it also looks like, in the last panel, that Alfred's got a sombrero on. Oh, it's the giant penny. Go, Dick! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	It looks like a Jesus Halo to me. D: (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
