Calender Man Wants You to Call Your Mother

April 3, 2012 by Elizabeth DeLoria

Villain takes opportunity to remind Batman about dead parents.

For those of you who remember Arkham City’s Calendar Man, April 1st was one of a few very special dates hinted at by the villain.

Those who visited the imprisoned Calender Man at the Solomon Wayne Courthouse were treated to this delightfully creepy story:

Well, well, well, Batman, you listened well. You appear to understand the importance of dates, don’t you? Let me tell you about this day, this day of fools.

I remember clearly that I watched her for days, waiting for the perfect moment. It was cold that March; it felt like spring would never come.

They drank coffee and she confessed her life lacked surprises. For six more days I watched.

April 1st, 5:22 a.m., I finished cutting through the brake lines of her car.

From the camera I placed on her dash, I saw her panic. My only regret? She couldn’t hear me yell, ‘Surprise!’

If that didn’t at least make you shift in your seat a little, Calender Man also had a very special message for the caped crusader:

“Mother’s Day, time to pay. Remember to give your mother a call, Batman. Then come back and see me.”

It's too bad that Batman’s parents are dead, huh? Calender Man is a dick.
