The closest thing to a Batman deck I could think of. This deck leans into voltron with a prominent investigate subtheme.

Being the world's greatest detective, it makes sense to build a deck around clues. Dimir is the perfect color combo for Batman, but esper can work too which is why my maybeboard has white cards in it. The justice of white with bounce/flicker mechanics to simulate Batman dropping in on the bad guys is fitting so I've prepared for both scenarios.
