Batman Shadow Night VIIIII: Paying the Dues

Batman Shadow Knight VIIII: Paying the Dues is the thirtieth story published by Lovingtoomuchiowa, and the tenth installment in the Batman: Shadow Knight series.

Synopsis
Young Bat must go on his first solo mission to save Batman. But first, he is going to have to get passed the greedy and villainous The Taxman, as well as his newfound hired help. Do not give me any bad comments, I hate that a lot! It is so much bad, and I do not like that at all! So stop!

Reception
This story has been panned by critics, with some saying that this is one of the most baffling Lovingtoomuchiowa stories. Many have said that The Taxman's bland character was bland, that the spelling was horrendous, that the plot went nowhere, and that the whole story felt like an excuse to bolster The Author's ego. Also, it has been said that this story does nothing to further the ongoing story, and that new readers may as well just skip the story altogether.
