There is no Alfred in today's The Batman's Grave #5 by Warren Ellis and Bryan Hitch, which is a crying shame, as recent issues' highlights have revolved around just what insult, criticism or takedown Alfred Pennyworth is going to throw Bruce Wayne's way – and maybe even that he is a figment of Bruce's imagination,[...]
