Batman, in a warehouse, looking down petty crooks from the top of a crate or platform, cocky or spooky, is a much reprised image of the Darknight Detective. I don't even know if this is the first clear iteration of it. It probably isn't. But when you think of Batman, some version of the scene may well come to mind. It's like Superman breaking his chains or Green Arrow walking off angrily.
Do you have a favorite Batman mise en scène?

It's the panel half-filled with empty space after Batman has done his disappearing act, leaving (usually) the Commissioner talking to himself.
