The Return of The Gotham Rogue
Most fans are excited about the new logo and mascot for The Gotham City Rogues, but after Mr. Dinitelli's tirade on GCN, I felt a public response was called for. The Bandit was the original mascot for The Gotham City Rogues. Adopting it as the official logo is a return to that proud tradition which began in 1939. It is not a stunt to sell more merchandise, nor are we "kow-towing to a hippie, communist, liberal, art student, internet hacker, immigrant, socialist agenda" in discontinuing the handgun logo. The corporations which donated so generously to the expansion of the stadium did not dictate this change in logo. The decision was made solely by myself and the board of trustees, who are in unanimous agreement that the handgun is not the best symbol for a city emerging from the kind of mob violence Gotham has been prey to. I am quite certain that should Mr. Dinitelli wish to reconsider his position and attend a game at Gotham Stadium, he will see fans waving Rogues Rags with the old logo sitting beside those waving the new, all chanting for the fire to rise and all cheering the team on to another championship season. -Arthur Pack,
