in that interview talking about hurt/black gloves identity being biggest reveal of year/decade or whatever (I cant find it), did he specifically say "been there since the beginning of Batman' or just the more vague `beginning'. Because, while all the blogosphere was guessing about early Batman characters being BlackGlove/Hurt (alfred, thomas wayne, thomas wayne junior, batman himself, joe chill) maybe Morrison did really mean `the beginning of time' and was letting us know the reveal- that Hurt is the Devil in disguise- it a criptic manner. I wouldn't put it past him.
Thoughts?

having him be the devil is just the kind of boring "twist" morrison loves to write. he probably thinks it's genius, and his boosters will agree, but some of us know better.
sorry if i sound like i'm hard on morrison. if i am, it's only because he's explosively overrated and should be kept away from established mainstream characters. "ultimate" and "all-star" comics were made for guys like him. it's a wonder he doesn't do more of them.
