when did dc suddenly decide to hate Gordon's facial hair? Him, Lobo, Aquaman and Green Arrow all need their facial hair back.

I wish they had made Alfred the new Batman instead of Gordon.

I think two more issues after this until Bruce is Batman again.

I guess the mohawk makes sense for the same reason as the stache. Look where the armor grips onto his head... the sides.
He shaved all the hair that got in the way.

I also did this once. I got an Emotiv headset to telepathically play video games. The sensors didn't work so great reading through hair, so I shaved a mohawk for better conductivity. It worked like a charm.

It worked amazingly! The tech is in its infancy, so there weren't manny uses for it, but there were several games available. It was also good for handsfree websurfing. You have to go through an hour-long set-up process during set up where you basically hotkey different functions to different thoughts. To me it was just a novelty, but to some quadraplegics out there it's probably a godsend.

This is the worst arc in comic book history.

The Emotiv company only made a handful of games that you can see on youtube. The best one, called Epoc, involved repairing the grounds of a buddhist temple that had been destroyed by ghosts. You had to relay wood to build bridges, force ghosts away from you, draw ghosts into a bottle to trap them, levitate giant rocks, etc.
As for the browsing, that was some program I found on a forum for use by paralyzed people. It used the headtracker to allow the cursor to move with the slightest head movements. You could open a link by thinking "PUSH" or by voice command.
The headset has 18 sensors, so it can measure brain impulses in 18 different locations around your skull. The actions are hotkeyed to match prerecorded variations of those 18 sensors during the set up process. So in the set up, it tells you to visualize pushing with your mind, and then records how the brain lights up. Whenever it sees that familiar signal in use, the computer pushes the object.

Youtube could probably explain it much better than me. I know they also had a couple of jedi tabletop games that year that used a similar process to turn fans on and off to levitate a ball. The tech was originally designed for commanding robots/wheelchairs/devices for people with no limb control.

Give it a decade, and it'll be in every toy store.
