366 Days with Alfred Pennyworth, Day 55

I asked you yesterday: What vital information do we find out about Alfred for the very first time in Batman #216?

Sean Murphy commented

Alfred has a little family reunion, right?

And...that's actually absolutely correct, Sean, and you get a Bruce Wayne-endorsed Bull-Prize (not valid in Metropolis).

But actually, it's not the big reveal I was thinking of. Batman #216 is the first time that we learn Earth-1's Alfred is surnamed...Pennyworth!



But yes, there's a family reunion, and it goes about as well as most family reunions.
