![]() ![]() ![]() And I love Commissioner Gordon the man who keeps the secret, the man who knows but does not know, and I think who has an internal battle with the city that he loves and hates but knows he needs Batman, who he also loves and hates. And considering they have a relationship where Bruce Wayne virtually ignores Alfred at every turn, seemingly, hence the wonderful sarcasm and back-and-forth, Alfred raised him. He can't beat up on Batman, but him beating up on a younger Batman, that's much more acceptable than an older Batman. It's hard because there is so much history with the characters. And he was stronger in a lot of ways than he is allowed to be in the comics. It's one of the things, amongst many things, that I loved about the last movie, "The Dark Knight." What a strong role Alfred played. Batman couldn't remotely be Batman without him. You can call him a dutiful servant but man, he is just so much more than that. I think he is one of the greatest characters in comics. I love Alfred so much I can't even tell you. CBR: Obviously, you can't talk about who is under the cowl in "Batman" when you take over the title in June, but what about his supporting cast? Does Alfred play a major role? What about Commissioner Gordon?Judd Winick: For me, I think the best Batman stories are not only about him but they are about how people revolve around him. ![]()
