Ratman is a character I would never use again, but I thought it would be neat to post it here since I drew an entire eight-page story a little more than six years ago. It never occurred to me that his name would make everyone think "Batman." His inspiration was actually a character I played in a game of TSR's Marvel Super Heroes roleplaying game around 2004 or 2005. One of the panels in this story is almost a complete swipe from a Daredevil comic book. In fact, Daredevil was a greater inspiration to me than Batman. I've always liked Daredevil, at least the Daredevil I knew when I used to read his comic book in the early to mid-'80s. A particular point in his favor was that he and I are both named Matt.
