Sound like the beginning of a song.

I like it better than the usual beginning of his song. Na na na na na na na na...

"Creature of the Night" reminds me of the song " Touch-a, Touch-a, Touch Me" from Rocky Horror Picture show.

Touch-a touch-a touch-a touch me
I wanna be dirty
Thrill me, chill me, fulfill me
Creature of the night

Thanks for the great image - it does remind me of a bat.

I thought maybe Lucifugus was the guy who designed the batmobile?

Fugus sounds like the Latin verb for flee or run away. Running away from Lucifer would be a "Bat out of Hell"
#9: Joe (infrapinklizzard) on Jul 3, 2018 [SPOILER]
Or "bat from Venus". Lucifer is Latin for 'light-bringer' and refers to Venus (as the morning-star). This meaning predates the usage as a synonym for Satan. The Hebrew word used for the not-yet-fallen fallen-angel is also used for Venus, so when the bible was translated into Latin, they used the Latin word for the morning-star.

Neither the little brown bat (myotis lucifugus) nor the dark knight (vigilantis billionairus) has much use for light.

I LOVE that you gave Batman a scientific classification as a species. Lol.

Beshirmeed Tea, you are thinking of Lucius Fox in the Christopher Nolan Batman movie series.
