Transcript:
Man 1: The Bantam was spotted in the jungle. He's alive! Man 2: I met with the business end of the Bantam once. Man 3: Once he punches you with the Bantam ring, the mark never comes off! You're branded for life! Look! Man 1: Wow! A giant egg! Man 2: It's grade A!

I’d bet the mark from the Bantam Ring is nothing compared the mark left from a Haywire bashing! Something to crow about!

Huh. I thought it was just an anagram of Batman. Guess I was only half-right. Dan’s got a multi-level parody going here!

So he’s a parody of both Batman and The Phantom.

I had thought for sure that when the Bantam punches you, it leaves a chicken-foot scar.

Like I said four days ago… Grade A justice. Methinks Rip has some mighty large talons to fill.
