Eric Draven Motivational Poster

Ever since I found out about The Crow, and by extension Mr. Draven, I always thought he was the lovechild of the Joker and Batman.  A vigilante, driven by a desire to prevent mindless violence against the innocent and a thirst for revenge for violence visited upon him.  The vigilante title is well earned, as Draven kills and terrorizes his intended targets, dispensing what I would describe as "hitman style justice" on the gang that killed him and his fiancée Shelly one by one.  Batman never kills and Joker does not ever consider his emotional turmoil, so Eric Draven has a balanced exhibition of both parties' traits I'd say.
