Batman dies leaving behind this property to Robin and Batgirl. The as- sets include the Wayne Manor, the Batcave, the Batmobile, the Batwing, and the Batboat. Assume the points are assigned as follows: Robin's Batgirl's Asset Points Points Wayne Manor(WM) 20 40 Batcave(BC) 30 20 Batmobile(BM) 30 28 Batwing(BW) 18 10 Batboat(BB) 2 2 Use the adjusted winner procedure to determine a fair allocation of the property. Answer: Wayne Manor(WM) 20 40 Batcave(BC) 30 20 Batmobile(BM) 30 28 Batwing(BW) 18 10 Batboat(BB) 2 2 Robin Points: 78 points Batgirl Points: 40 points So the Batboat goes to Batgirl Total points: Robin Points: 78 points Initial winner Batgirl Points: 42 points Initial loser Point Ratio: BC 30=20 = 1:5 BM 30=28 = 1:07143 BB 18=10 = 1:8 1 So the Batmobile is the first item to be transferred. It can be transferred completely without making Robin the initial loser, so the item must be shared. 78 − (30)x = 42 + (28)x 36 = 58x 36 18 x = = 58 29 Robins gets the Batcave, Batwing and (11/29) of the Batmobile. Batgirl gets the Wayne Manor, Batboat and (18/29) of the Batmobile. 2 2. Alvin, Simon, and Theodore inherit a house, a recording studio and a car from Dave. They submit the following bids. How should they arrive at a fair division? Alvin Simon Theodore House $210,000 $180,000 $150,000 Recording Studio $150,000 $90,000 $120,000 Car $6,000 $12,000 $9,000 Answer: Alvin Simon Theodore House $210,000 $180,000 $150,000 Recording Studio $150,000 $90,000 $120,000 Car $6,000 $12,000 $9,000 So Alvin gets the House and the Recording Studio, and Simon gets the car. House: Alvin puts in (2/3)(210,000) = 140,000 Simon takes out (1/3)(180,000)= -60,000 Theodore takes out (1/3)(150,000) = -50,000 Record- 30,000 The split 30,000 (each gets 10,000) ing Studio: Alvin puts in (2/3)(150,000) = 100,000 Simon takes out (1/3)(90,000)= -30,000 Theodore takes out (1/3)(120,000) = -40,000 Car: 30,000 The split 30,000 (each gets 10,000) Simon puts in (2/3)(12,000) = 8,000 Alvin takes out (1/3)(6,000)= -2,000 Theodore takes out (1/3)(9,000) = -3,000 3,000 The split 3,000 (each gets 1,000) Alvin: House - 140,000 + 10,000 + Recording Studio -100,000 +10,000 + 2,000 + 1,000 = House + Recording Studio - 217,000 Simon: 60,000 + 10,000 + 30,000 + 10,000 + Car - 8,000 + 1,000 = Car + 103,000 Theodore: 50,000 + 10,000 + 40,000 + 10,000 + 3,000 + 1,000 = 114,000 Alvin pays $217,000 and receives the House and Recording studio. Simon receives the car and $ 103,000. Theodore receives $114,000. 3 3. Suppose that Calvin and Hobbes discover a sunken pirate ship and decide to take turns dividing up the loot.

  • Batman Year One Proprosal by Larry and Andy
    BATMAN YEAR ONE PROPROSAL BY LARRY AND ANDY WACHOWSKI The scene is Gotham City, in the past. A party is going on and from it descends Thomas Wayne with his wife Martha, and son Bruce. They are talking, with Bruce chatting away about how he wants to see The Mark of Zorro again. Obviously they have just come from a movie premiere. As they turn a corner to their car, they are met by a hooded gunman who tries holding them up. There is a struggle and the Wayne parents are murdered in a bloodbath. Bruce is left there, when he is met by a police officer. There is a screech and a bat flies overhead... Twenty years have passed. Bruce is now twenty‐eight and quite dynamic. The main character has been travelling the world, training for a war on crime, to avenge his parents' deaths. He is at the Ludlow International Airport, where his butler Alfred picks him up. The two drive to Wayne Manor, just outside of Gotham. Bruce watches the city from the distance. The scene moves to downtown Gotham, where Bruce is wearing a hockey mask and black clothes. A fight breaks out between him and a pimp which leads to Bruce escaping to a rotting building. Bleeding badly, he doesn't know whether to continue his crusade against crime. A screech fills the area and a bat dives at him, knocking him onto an old chair. Bruce realises his destiny... The opening credits feature Bruce at Wayne Manor, slamming down a hammer on scrap metal, moulding it into shape.

Because of the events of the entire arc, considerable time passes before Commissioner Gordon restores his trust in the idea of a Batman working for good. And I remember really enjoying both despite their original versions being graphic novels. This is a very rare mention of a character from another company in a non-intercompany capacity, made possible by the insanity of Jean-Paul.

Bruce reaffirms his partnership with Tim, resolving the tension caused by Bruce's unwillingness to accept help during the Arkham prison break. You think you know Bane? It was good, but not great.

STATIC, YET FLUCTUATING: THE EVOLUTION OF BATMAN AND HIS AUDIENCES by PERRY DUPRE DANTZLER Under the Direction of H. Calvin Thomas ABSTRACT The Batman media franchise (comics, movies, novels, television, and cartoons) is unique because no other form of written or visual texts has as many artists, audiences, and forms of expression. Understanding the various artists and audiences and what Batman means to them is to understand changing trends and thinking in American culture. The character of Batman has developed into a symbol with relevant characteristics that develop and evolve with each new story and new author. The Batman canon has become so large and contains so many different audiences that it has become a franchise that can morph to fit any group of viewers/readers. Our understanding of Batman and the many readings of him gives us insight into ourselves as a culture in our particular place in history.

  • DC COMICS V. TOWLE ______
    DC COMICS v. TOWLE ________________________________________________________ Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, 2015 802 F.3d 1012 OPINION IKUTA, Circuit Judge: We are asked to decide whether defendant Mark Towle infringed DC Comics’ exclusive rights under a copyright when he built and sold replicas of the Batmobile, as it appeared in the 1966 television show Batman and the 1989 film BATMAN. Holy copyright law, Batman! I DC Comics (DC) is the publisher and copyright owner of comic books featuring the story of the world-famous character, Batman. Since his first comic book appearance in 1939, the Caped Crusader has protected Gotham City from villains with the help of his sidekick Robin the Boy Wonder, his utility belt, and of course, the Batmobile. Originally introduced in the Batman comic books in 1941, the Batmobile is a fictional, high-tech automobile that Batman employs as his primary mode of transportation. The Batmobile has varied in appearance over the years, but its name and key characteristics as Batman’s personal crime-fighting vehicle have remained consistent. Over the past eight decades, the comic books have continually depicted the Batmobile as possessing bat-like external features, ready to leap into action to assist Batman in his fight against Gotham’s most dangerous villains, and equipped with futuristic weaponry and technology that is “years ahead of anything else on wheels.” Since its creation in the comic books, the Batmobile has also been depicted in numerous television programs and motion pictures. Two of these depictions are relevant to this case: the 1966 television series Batman, starring Adam West, and the 1989 motion picture BATMAN, starring Michael Keaton.

  • 76052-1: Batman™ Classic TV Series – Batcave
    76052-1: Batman™ Classic TV Series – Batcave By Jetro Pictures by Jetro and LEGO System A/S Batman is back in glorious 60s style and in a large 2526pc set that includes a total of 9 minifi gs. Is it a collectors item? A playset? Or is there too much nostalgia for either option? This review will (hopefully) give you the answer. Even though I wasn’t even around when the original Batman TV series aired in the 60s (January 1966 to March 1968), the iconic images of Batman and Robin chasing villains in loud colours, accompanied by large speech bubbles emphasising the power of their punches are still etched in my memory from the many reruns of this iconic show. As a result the 76052 Batman Classic TV Series Batcave is instantly recognisable, if only because of the classic lines of the Batmobile – they don’t make cars like that anymore. 72 Today’s Batman is a much darker knight, but even so, the colourful lines of the original TV series as represented in this set have an instant appeal, and not only those of us who saw the series on TV. I wanted to know if it was just my memories that drew me to the set (despite not being much of a super heroes fan, at least not when it comes to LEGO), so I sat down with my kids to build the set together and see what their reactions were. The instruction manual for this set is one hefty volume. On the one hand this has the important advantage that it is less likely to bend and deteriorate inside the box.
