Why hello there, @ObscurityofDCClub and other members of the DC Community! Welcome to Week 95 of Obscurity of DC’s Obscure Book Club! This week will be a mini, and we’ll be focusing on…
TALLY MAN!!!
AGE SUGGESTION: 12+
Number of Issues: 2
Description from dc.fandom.com: The Tally Man is a hitman who collects on debts owed to the Gotham mob. This made him an enemy of Batman and Azrael.
Now that that’s over with, here are some discussion questions:
- Refusing be bribed by a criminal yet often phrasing his kills as “debts collected.” What is Tally Man’s reasoning behind accepting human lives rather than money as payment?
- When we are given Tally Man’s tragic backstory and how it connects with the mob. Why then does the Tally Man choose to adopt the moniker of criminals that hurt him and his family?
- Tally Man claims to have killed 66 people since his original victim but constantly affirms 67 throughout his fight with Azrael and Batman. Why is Tally Man obsessed with the knowledge of the people he murdered and his inability to do so with them?
