Chinaman:
(Worldwide English) Chinese person, used in the gold rush and railway-construction eras in western North America, when discrimination against Chinese was common.[33] Though widely used historically without offensive intent, the term today generates controversy when still used in geographic places associated or resembling Chinese. Fowler's Dictionary of English Usage as late as 1956 describes it as the term for a Chinese person, whereas the term Chinese was only used as an adjective for things. Though it is widely used as an ironic self-reference by many North Americans of Chinese descent, and is still heard in the lyrics to the 70s song "Kung Fu Fighting" and Fast and Furious movie song "Tokyo Drift" by the teriyaki boys, it tends to generate objections in modern times, especially in the US where Asian-American is the preferred nomenclature. (Note that in cricket, the term "chinaman" is used in a non-ethnic sense to refer to a left-handed bowler who uses a wrist spin action, and that a chinaman was also a type of 18th and 19th C. merchant ship, or a dealer in china ware.)

Ahahahahahahaha

Holy shit yes.

what the fuck does any of this have to do with the comic

Raneados

in short: what racials slurs would batman use, if any

And would he say them in the presence of whoever that splinter cell guy is

biscuittooth

A wonderful comic, for me marred only slightly by the highly unlikely angle of Sam Fisher's left leg.

Penguin Incarnate

Now I can't unsee it.

Ringo

So with the new comic naming scheme... how do we even go about finding the new comic?

THE COMIC

Abracadaniel

From that last panel, if you look at it the right way it looks like Batman and Sam are looking down at someone on the floor.

ThatDudeOverThere

they are

specificly the henchman in the first two panels

Abracadaniel

no, I mean, like, they knocked him out, and he's laid out on the floor and they're standing over him like 'Damn, he is fucked up.'
