highland girl 1592 2008-05-07 ch 4,	abuseWell at least it wasn't sexual abuse,but I certainly can't consider this form of abuse a better alternative.And I'm glad that Jonathan has Prioska.Update soon please.:)
highland girl 1592 2008-05-07 ch 3,	abusesigh And so it begins.I keep thinking of an old saying[As the twig is bent so grows the tree]I think it is very apt for Jonathan.If Jonathan's uncle didn't know how hard up his nephew and sister-in-law were it was because he didn't want to find out.I sure do hope that'The Game'doesn't imply sexual abuse.Jonathan has been through enough.:(
highland girl 1592 2008-05-07 ch 2,	abuseHis father gave his mother aids?!Damn!I'll bet he knew that he had something but he didn't(want)to know what.And when his wife told him,that must be why he beat her so,to try to make her take back what she said and make it not be true.You were cutting it a bit close though,otherwise Jonathan could've been born with it.So Nancy came to love Jonathan at last.But I agree that it was too little too late.Because even though Jonathan loved her he didn't really trust her,that she would take her love away from him.Which is what she did when she died.I don't think that it was right that she had drummed into him for three years that she was going to die,the toll that must have taken on his psyche!Poor little boy!:(
highland girl 1592 2008-05-07 ch 1,	abuseNot exactly an auspicious beginning,huh? Poor Jonathan.I wonder what made his mother think of the name Jonathan? I'm sure you know that the name Jonathan means[ Given of God].Of course she was just probably thinking of David and Jonathan from the bible and the fact that her husband's name was David.I also have to wonder if being raised by an abusive grandmother was better or worse for Jonathan than having a drunken brute for a father and a hate-filled mother.Poor Jonathan.:(
Alder 2006-07-13 ch 4, anon.	abuseThis is really a work of art. I do hope that you continue with the story. You're writing is fantastic. Your characters are well developed and none come remotly close to being Mary Sue's. Really a work of art
BlackAngel617 2006-06-09 ch 4,	abuseWow! I really like your take on Jonathan's past. Particularly the crazy aunt... The one thing I thought was a little odd was that his mother wanted him for nothing more than keeping her husband with her, yet seemed to love him as she died. Not that I don't think it's a welcome change, but it seemed rather sudden. But you've done a great job so far. Keep up the good work, and pleaase update soon! ~Ashley
i-am- milk 2006-05-31 ch 4,	abuseyour story is very well-written and engaging. why did you stop?
Miranda 2006-03-28 ch 4, anon.	abuseI really love this story. Please keep adding on to it. The only thing I wonder about is the fact that Jonathan's family was poor in this story. I have read other fics that state he was from a wealthy family, and that he murdered his mother. But mabye I interpreted it wrong, and the wealthy family was while he was with his aunt and uncle, and he murders his aunt? I was just a bit confused. Keep on keeping on with this story--it has a realistic feel to it that a lot of fics lack. I love it!
jaka ray 2006-02-01 ch 4,	abuseOhman... No more? Bleah. Well I guess that ... explains some things? I hope you'll move on into the future though, I'm interested in what happens between his (what is this, fifth grade?) self and the movie-aged Jonathan. :) Shall keep reading when you keep posting! :)
jaka ray 2006-02-01 ch 3,	abuse"The Game"?! Gah, cliffies no good! Oh well, at least I caught onto this late and so now I get to read on! Pu ha ha ha. I really like the way you've woven his past, I'd almost forgotten about his glasses. Still wondering why he is the way he is, though. At least the whole brains-over-brawn question is solved. God stuff.
jaka ray 2006-01-31 ch 1,	abuse:) Nice. I'm glad I picked a fic that was well written amongst the bad ones that happen to spring up every now and then. I'm looking forward to reading on, yay!
Liz 2006-01-08 ch 4, anon.	abuseHi! This story is fantastic! I am so happy that someone else has taken the time to think about Crane's childhood, which must have been really messed up to cause him to be as crazy as he is by the time we see him in Batman Begins. I like all of the characters. They are very realistic and they are not mary-sues, which I am so glad for since I hate them (the mary-sues). I think you're doing a great job so keep up the good work, and please email me when you have the next chapter posted. Thanks.
Mr. Zillion 2006-01-05 ch 4,	abuseThat was an amazingly thrilling chapter, like something you would see in a Hitchcock movie. I'm glad that you liked my former review and I will keep on reading. Keep up the good work and update soon.
Drakelah 2006-01-03 ch 1, anon.	abuseYou are actually a little too descriptive. That's about it, but I'd give up on the Literary agent if I were you.
Michael Alastair 2005-12-30 ch 4,	abuseHoly Shnikies! That was a spooky chapter! Can't wait for you to write more! Keep goin'! -Michael Alastair
