Bleeding Cool loves typos. We cherish them and take them to our bosom. And occasionally fix them afterwards. Seriously, I just misspelt bosom. And then misspelt "misspelt". It's a little easier digitally… but when the print files hit the printer and no one sees what's on the page until it's too late… well, then it's too late. And you'll just have to wait for the inevitable second printy or the collection. And so, in today's Batman #139 by Chip Zdarsky, Jorge Jimenez, Tomeu Morey and Clayton Clowes, edited by Ben Abernathy, the shaven Bruce Wayne makes a vow. A very definitive vow.
"For the the last time". So definitive it uses two definitive articles. It is also a rule of law that any article talking about someone else's typo must have at least one typo of its own. For the life of me, I can't see one in this article though. I guess I will just have to keep loking.
