First founded in the 1920s following the death of his insane mother Amadeus Arkham converted his late mother's house into a mental institution knowing little that he had set in motion a chain of events of horrific consequence and bizarre circumstance. Years later the asylum had become a living Hell on earth a mental hospital for the deadliest criminal individuals in Gotham City the enemies of the legendary Batman. April Fool's Day has arrived and the inmates have all escaped and led by The Joker have seized control of the asylum and drag the one man responsible for their incarcerations Batman into the madhouse and put him through a mad funhouse of mind cancer. Learn the disturbing origin of Dr. Arkham and dive into the minds of some of the inmates! This book is NOT a superhero comic book. It is a psychological theory presented as a superhero comic that will appeal more to fans of Eraserhead than to fans of The Batman. Although Batman is in the book and Arkham Asylum is where all of his criminally insane adversaries are kept locked up this is not a book about Batman nor his physical battles with the criminally insane. Batman is merely the eyes and ears of the reader exploring Arkham Asylum and it's insanities. Writer Grant Morrison's idea in his book are mystic and focus mainly on the symbiosis between Batman and the insidious psychopaths he has time and time again helped incarcerate. 'A Serious House on Serious Earth' is a Bat tale unlike any other because the characters each represent something. Everything in the story is depicted as some form of symbolism and include the works of the psychology of Carl Jung the works of Joseph Campbell and Lewis Carroll
