Flavius Theodosius ( 11 January 347 – 17

January 395), also called Theodosius I and Theodosius the Great was Roman

Emperor from 379 to 395. Reuniting the eastern and western portions of the

empire, Theodosius was the last emperor of both the Eastern and Western Roman

Empire . After his death, the two parts split permanently. He is also known for

making Nicene Christianity the official state religion of the Roman Empire.


Staurogram




The Staurogram (meaning monogram of the cross, from the Greek σταυρός, i.e.
cross), or Monogrammatic Cross or Tau-Rho symbol, is composed by a tau (Τ)
superimposed on a rho (Ρ). The Staurogram was first used to abbreviate the Greek
word for cross in very early New Testament manuscripts such as P66, P45 and P75,
almost like a nomen sacrum, and may visually have represented Jesus on the
cross.



Ephrem the Syrian in the 4th-century explained these two united letters stating
that the tau refers to the cross, and the rho refers to the Greek word "help"
which has the numerological value in Greek of 100 as the letter rho has. In such
a way the symbol expresses the idea that the Cross saves. The two letters tau
and rho can also be found separately as symbols on early Christian ossuaries.



The tau was considered a symbol of salvation due to the identification of the
tau with the sign which in Ezekiel 9:4 was marked on the forehead of the saved
ones, or due to the tau-shaped outstretched hands of Moses in Exodus 17:11. The
rho by itself can refer to Christ as Messiah because Abraham, taken as symbol of
the Messiah, generated Isaac according to a promise made by God when he was one
hundred years old, and 100 is the value of rho.:158



The Monogrammatic Cross was later seen also as a variation of the Chi Rho
symbol, and it spread over Western Europe in the 5th and 6th centuries.In
ancient Roman religion, Victoria or Victory was the personified goddess of
victory. She is the Roman equivalent of the Greek goddess Nike, and was
associated with Bellona. She was adapted from the Sabine agricultural goddess
Vacuna and had a temple on the Palatine Hill. The goddess Vica Pota was also
sometimes identified with Victoria.



Unlike the Greek Nike, the goddess Victoria (Latin for "victory") was a major
part of Roman society. Multiple temples were erected in her honor. When her
statue was removed in 382 CE by Emperor Gratianus there was much anger in Rome.
She was normally worshiped by triumphant generals returning from war.



Also unlike the Greek Nike, who was known for success in athletic games such as
chariot races, Victoria was a symbol of victory over death and determined who
would be successful during war.



Victoria appears widely on Roman coins, jewelry, architecture, and other arts.
She is often seen with or in a chariot, as in the late 18th-century sculpture
representing Victory in a quadriga on the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, Germany;
"Il Vittoriano" in Rome has two.






Flavius Theodosius ( 11 January 347 – 17)

January 395), also called Theodosius I and Theodosius the Great was Roman

Emperor from 379 to 395. Reuniting the eastern and western portions of the

empire, Theodosius was the last emperor of both the Eastern and Western Roman

Empire . After his death, the two parts split permanently. He is also known for

making Nicene Christianity the official state religion of the Roman Empire.

One of the best Bat stories that I've read.
Format: Paperback
Coming off from The Long Halloween, Jeff Loeb and Tim Sale give us the sequel to their popular story tale in which we see Batman go at it with another year long mystery, while also giving us an origin story for the first Robin, Dick Grayson. After reading this book, I have come away having with even more love of the Dark Knight's mythology, while coming to see this as my favorite Batman story that I have read, even if it doesn't stand as well on its own. ON the narrative side of things, Loeb delivers a story fairly similar to the one he gave in The Long Halloween, though I feel this one is a bit more polished than Halloween was. Some have said that the retreading of plot structure have limited the way Loeb's later works are read, but I myself have no problem with it (for the most part), Loeb manages to do enough differently that you don't feel like you're reading the exact same story. The real big negative I'd have to give this graphic novel is that it really doesn't stand as well by itself than if you had read The Long Halloween. While I myself read that story before coming in to this one, I did see many connections that I would assume would through off any newcomers who hadn't read the prior story. But I will say that this is the story that had me invested the most emotionally. Without giving away any spoilers, that last page in the novel gave me such a cathartic experience that I really came to appreciate certain aspects of the Dark Knight's mythology, and how themes of loneliness were touched upon in a very genuine way. Looking at the art for the novel, Sale's work has improved much from The Long Halloween. I always mention in reviews concerning Sale that I was originally not a fan of his art, but after going through his work, you can't help but admire the level skill he manages to put in his drawings. There is a very big noir feeling in this novel (a plus for ) that is just delivered so well that any preferences in art I may have against Sale are put away in admiring the way he plays with lighting in the story. My biggest complaint for the art, which is a more of a personal thing really, is that I do not like the "pixie" costume they gave Robin (which is his default costume that many would associate him with). I have never really liked this costume, probably never will, but again, this is just me. Overall, I would say I really enjoyed the novel and would have to recommend it to any fans of the Batman (although I'd make sure you have read The Long Halloween first). This has come to be one of my most favorited Batman stories I've read, and I hope others will receive the same level of satisfaction that I have.

Great Sequel to Long Halloween
Format: Paperback
This takes all of the great elements of the Long Halloween and keeps it going. The two of those books together is a great story telling. Ticks all the boxes of a great Batman book. If you like this and Long Halloween check out The Penguin show on HBO Max. and if you like The Penguin but haven't read these two books you should since the show pulls a lot of influence from them.
