3. Fictional Obituary: Harvey Harris, Absolute Batman
Spoilers for Absolute Batman #15.
Harvey Harris, an FBI investigator whose disappearance had long been attributed to a fatal boating accident, has died after years of captivity on a private island.
Mr. Harris investigated Jack Grimm and was known to Alfred Pennyworth through that work. His pursuit of the case placed him in the path of a man whose influence extended far beyond the ordinary reach of an investigation.
The earlier report of his death did not tell the truth of what had happened to him. Mr. Harris remained alive for decades, separated from the life and work by which others knew him. His eventual killing brings an end to an ordeal that had been hidden behind the record of an accident.
His name should be restored to the account of his own life. He was an investigator before he became a missing man, and a person before he became someone else's secret.
Harvey Harris leaves a place in the memory of those who knew him and in the unfinished record of the work he undertook. Remembering him requires acknowledging both the years taken from him and the life that existed before his disappearance.
