okay so, back in probably late 2012, i was attending physics courses at the university of toledo.Ā there was a desk toward the back of one of the classrooms that i sat in pretty regularly, and one day i came in to find an exquisitely muscular and beautifully detailed torso/bust of batman drawn on my desk in pencil.
i was stunned.Ā who put this masterpiece here?Ā how did they do it in a meager one-hour class time?Ā where was batmanās lower half?
and, most intensely, would they mind if i added to the drawing?
throwing caution (and attention to class) to the wind, i gave batman a lower half.
it may not have been the lower half they were expecting.Ā nevertheless, batmantaur was born.
i donāt remember what the artistās response was, but the next class day he had written the beginnings of a chat on the desk.Ā i donāt even remember his name, but we had something special for the rest of that semester.Ā an understanding, an appreciation, a kinship perhaps.
so what became of batmantaur?Ā it remained in that room throughout most of the semester, though i think i remember the desk getting moved around a few times.Ā eventually, i came in one day to find the desk half-dismantled, as though someone had tried to remove the desktop.Ā about a week later, whoever it was actually did succeed in stealing it.Ā i never saw batmantaur again.
and thus, he became a legend.Ā if i didnāt have photos of him, i myself probably wouldnāt even believe that he had existed.
his spirit lived on in the future collaborative works of flashtaur and captain americataur.
