Many Batman considers the greatest superhero because he does not have great powers, although he is far from every man. It is not only his resources and wealth that makes Bruce Wayne an exceptional individual, it is his design. But just as the human body can be broken in Batman, its will only Mostly invincible. Before Bane broke the bats in “Batman: Knightfall”, the deacon, Joseph Black Fire, broke his soul in “Batman: The Cult”.

The deacon is the villain in 1988, a four -year comedy, written by Jim Starlene and painted by artist Bernie Rightson, and the leader of the pore worship. Religion is not a repeated topic in Batman’s stories (compared, for example, Dardevil in Marvel). This makes Blackfire, who wears clothes and speaks like a priest, stands out more compared to the enemies of Batman.

“The Cult” begins in the Residia, with Batman with chains inside the underground hidden. The memories of the past reveal that Blackfire came to Gotham announces charity, and opened a shelter in the crime alley. But people began to disappear, and when the investigation into Batman fell in the arms of the sect.

Worship Batman holds a hostage because Blackfire wants the dark knight to become part of his family. You expect Batman to do what he always does: he comes out of his messenger with a hidden lock or some Hodeni-ESC and save today. But not this time. Deprived of food and hallucinogenic medications with a sermon from the deacon, Batman surrenders to indoctrination by the end of the number 1.

The internal Montroxy Batman shows that this is not a trick. He really was defeated and invaded by Blackfire. He does not break so much that he commits killing himself, but he stands as some other deacon followers do.

Blackfire assets are kept a puzzle through “Batman: The Cult”. When Batman is broken, he claims to be immortal and may God choose it. A thousand years ago, Chaman was sent to the original American tribe, Magani (“The People of the Breaks”). They refused and stamped him far, until some of the badly fortunate Dutch settlers woke it up for centuries. Commissioner Gordon finds evidence that Blackfire has committed crimes in Gotham since his return in the twenties of the twentieth century, and the deacon claims that bathing in the blood of others maintains his youth. However, he is also from Charlatan, who is aware of religion to mislead the desperate masses and win power, so why does he not lie about his origins?

Blackfire dies at the end of “The Cult”, torn by his followers after they saw him begging Batman for mercy. A few times have returned, but “The Cult” is the only classic comic of his name. Because of this, it is not surprising that Deacon Blackfire after any Batman movies, because “The Cult” itself is very brutal for the great budget adaptation.
