Friday Night Fights: Thunder - Round 4: What Wine Goes With Knuckle Sandwiches?





I had to miss last week's round of Friday Night Fights: Thunder due do a bout of stomach flu, so I'm back this week with both guns blazing. And since it's the week of Valentine's Day, I'm going with someone who's both a lover and a fighter, namely Bat Lash.


This round of western wine-related wildness comes courtesy of Showcase#76 by Sergio Aragones and Nick Cardy. Synopsis: Bat Lash stops in the town of Welcome to arrange to cook the pheasant he just killed. Trouble is, Welcome does not live up to its name, seeing as how it's just been overrun by an evil gang. Bat just wants to eat his meal and leave, but the gunmen, afraid he's a federal Marshall, keep trying to kill him, including this moment when he's trying to pick the right wine to go with the roast bird.





Spoiler: He never does get to enjoy that dinner.


Since tonight's fight involved a man and his wine, I thought this Def Leppard song would be appropriate fight music.
