    It’s funny, the date lines up with TDK, and I wonder if this idea had was inspiration for the foster home subplot of TDKR.

      I never actually thought before just how full the comics are of foster home and orphanage related stories. It’s almost like it’s the main theme of batman comics.

        Orphanages were needed back when parents died in wars and at work with much more regularity. Their requirement in society has dwindled as Life has gained social value in the west.
