'The World, Made a Peepshow' – John Constantine in Batman Damned #2 Preview

We know that big changes were made to Batman Damned #2 as a result of the reaction to Batman Damned #1. But it seems that some things haven't changed. And John Constantine is free to let the vernacular fly as before. But could the 'peepshow' line be an added reference to that reaction that made it to The Late Show With Stephen Colbert? I wouldn't have put it past Brian Azzarello.

But it begins in a scene that smacks rather a lot of Arkham Asylum given a Dark Knight grid… here's a preview courtesy of Nerdist.

Is that what you call Chekhov's Constantine? Will Batman get a chance for the final push in chapters to come?
