I'm Batman (dream)

Here's a dream I had earlier this month...

There was actually much more of the dream than I can remember. The part that I do remember was near the end of the dream..

A group of Gotham city police officers, Robin, and I were confronting Poison Ivy and some of her henchmen inside of a shopping mall/office building. The henchmen were creepy looking clowns wearing black and white stripped prison uniforms. The building seemed to have been made of glass, but it was late night and closed, so nobody else was around. We were on one of the upper floor balconies overlooking the open interior of the mall.

Poison Ivy (played by Uma Thurman) began to walk over to me. As she strutted, she took off a large coat to reveal a typically sultry outfit. She walked straight up to my face, took my hand and placed it at the back of her head. There was a pull-ring attached to a string (like the ones at the back of a doll or stuffed animal that talk or make noises when you pull it), and she began to pull it back with my hand. Suddenly, she let go of the ring, leaving it in my hand, and her head falls off revealing herself to be some kind of mechanical fem-bot. As I hear this ticking sound, and all of her henchmen scatter, I realize that her head is actually a time-bomb set to go off once I let go of the ring. I order Robin and the police officers to evacuate the building.

After waiting for a brief moment, I toss the head-bomb into a corner, and jumped from the balcony. My batwings open up and I swooshed down close to the ground towards the glass exit doors. I smashed through the glass doors, and faced another glass wall with another set of glass exit doors. Continuing to glide close to the ground, I smash through that and a few more sets of glass walls and exit doors. As I smash through the last glass door leading outside into the night, there was a massive explosion - obliterating the entire building and sending an enormous shower of glass in every direction.

The explosion knocks me to the ground, and as I recovered and stood up in the darkness of the night, I realized that I was surrounded by another group of clown-faced henchmen in prison outfits. They rushed me, and I fought them off as best as I could - at one time grabbing one of the smaller henchmen and swinging his body around like a battle-club.

Then comes the weird part of the dream.

Another one of the smaller clowns was able to grab onto my leg without my being able to shake him off. He had this syringe in his fist, and it looked like he was getting ready to jam it into my crotch. At first I wasn't worried, thinking that the syringe couldn't penetrate the bottom portion of my protective bat suit. But then to my horror, I realized that I had forgotten to wear the bottom part of my suit, and instead was only wearing a pair of black sweats.

I struggled frantically and finally beat him off. Then I forced myself to wake up - out of breath and in a cold sweat. It might have been excruciatingly painful if he had succeeded.
