Stephen King – Batman and Robin have an Altercation
Stephen King has written a story called Batman and Robin have an Altercation making its debut in the politically driven issue of Harper’s Magazine September 2012 issue. This is Stephen King’s first story written for Harper’s. The story follows a middle-aged man named Sanderson who brings his Alzheimer’s-afflicted father to Applebee’s for their weekly lunch. For three years they have ordered the same food and had the same conversation. Just as Sanderson despairs of finding any shred of the man who raised him, he’s saved from a brutal assault to find his father wielding a weapon procured in a moment of lucidity. Catch a tidbit of it below. This is not about Batman and Robin or a comic, only the using the iconic names to show the dynamics of the two main characters.
