Martha was dressed as a butterfly for the “Flying Creatures” ball.
I first saw that story in one of the 80 Page Giant issues of Batman, which reminds me: Did anyone else read the 80 Page Giant that featured the Batmen of other countries?
:: applauds :: DrF.
Czar, I’m sure I did. Wasn’t Knight and Squire one of the other Batmen? And there was a Mexican Gaucho as another?
Fenris
Not to mention the entry from France, Cavalier. I’m not sure about his sidekick’s name-maybe Perfume Lad or Poodle Boy. 
No. The side kick was Fifi, the Avante Garde Wonder.
I would like Czarcasm’s copy of Buck Godot. I mean, if ol’ slythe is just giving them away…
Oh, yeah, & I knew Miller sucked before any of you all. Stupid overrated hack…
As for From Hell, Eddie Campbell is an acquired taste, but you should read his own non-collaborative stuff, especially the Joe Theseus stories in Deadface and anything with Alec (or was it Alex?). He’s really a writer who draws, not a renderer (rather like Moore himself).
Since when could Plas take on the attributes of whatever he changed into? Was that the Pre Crisis version? During his stint on JLA and in his four issue reboot, he didn’t seem ot have that ability.
As I recall, it was in South America - maybe Argentina. The charcter was “Bat Hombre” and Batman and Robin had gone down south of the border to train the nuevo hero in the ways of a bat.
Instead of a Batarang, Bat Hombre used a bola, and instead of a Batmobile, he rode the fastest horse on the pampas. The horse had a bat cowl.
The villian Bat Hombre was going up against was maybe called “The Parrot.” In any event, he had a pet parrot that made the call as to whether someone lived or died.
Trouble was, “Bat Hombre” was in cahoots with Parrot Man. On the eve of Bat Hombre’s introduction, Batman noticed his (Bat Hombre’s) uniform was torn. When he asked Bat Hombre about it, Nuevo Bats said an owl or hawk or some other bird of prey had swooped down and attacked him. Fortunately, Batman noticed the tear in the uniform had the inverted rear claw pattern that only a parrot makes.
So Batman tied up the mole, assumed the identity of Bat Hombre and went to visit the benevolent despot who ruled this Latin American country on his death bed. Benevolent despot wished Bat Hombre godspeed and then died that night. Batman, dressed as Bat Hombre, took the Parrot Man out for good, and went back to the USA, convinced of the folly of replicating various Batmen around the globe.
Does that ring a bell?
Labdad (who is amazed that he can remember this crap from 40 years ago, but can’t remember where he put his car keys this afternoon!)
