1[[WMG:Albrecht was formerly a cop in Gotham City, or some other city home to superhumans.]]
2Explains how easily he goes along with the idea of a guy coming back from the dead.
3* Also, in Creator/{{Tim Burton}}'s {{Film/Batman|1989}}, Commissioner Gordon addresses a young black cop as "Albrecht".

5[[WMG:All the supernatural stuff is just an hallucination.]]
6In the comic, at least, the circumstances of Eric's death and ressurrection are a lot more ambiguous. It's possible he was only clinically dead for a short period. His visions of the afterlife and apparent inability to feel pain are simply due to one or more factors including brain damage, drugs and/or simply going insane with grief and anger.

8[[WMG:The various Anime/{{Karas}} warriors are incarnations--or even a sort of "sub-species" of The Crow.]]
9"Karas" actually means "raven" in Japanese, and the supernatural elements, including the near-death nature of the protagonist, seem to match up. The fact that every city has a Karas may hint at a different but related type of power.

11[[WMG:The identity of Top Dollar and Myca's unnamed father...]]
12...is [[Film/TheDevilsAdvocate John Milton]], aka the Devil himself. It would certainly explain the incest and the fetishization for fire. And TD even has a throaty rasp like his [[Creator/AlPacino dad]]!
13* As for why they didn't figure into [[TheDevil dad's]] plans, maybe Myca was [[IWantGrandkids barren]]?

15[[WMG:When Eric removed the morphine he healed the withdrawal too.]]
