So according to ghost-maker, only 5 living people have seen his whole face and only 3 know his real name.
Tumblr media
let’s fact check that.
obviously Bruce knows both his name and face so there should be 2 more people who know his name and four(?) more who know his face.
Angel-Breaker also knows his name evidenced below, and we can presume she also has seen his face(they’re ex-lovers btw, if anyone is unaware)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(she calls him ‘khoa bear’ im shitting myself)
the third and in theory final person who knows Khoa’s name is Ras al ghul
Tumblr media
but as you can see Talia is right there!, and so is that rando with the sword. And I’m aware that in shadow wars ras al ghul was killed, but I’m like 80% sure that ghost-maker said only 3 people knew his name before ras’ death.
also I’m aware that batman: the knight has multiple discrepancies with ghost-maker’s original introduction, so I guess this is me pointing out another. 
https://www.tumblr.com/thepineconelord/713683317919203328/ever-since-tynion-iv-stopped-writing-ghost-maker?source=share anyway here’s a post where I point more out more of those
I think a lot of things with ghost-maker like who knows his name/face are going to get muddled and changed, mainly because tynion left dc and ghost-maker doesn’t have one stable creative team writing him anymore.
anyway I would go through everyone who has seen his face but that’s too much work, I’d love to hear other’s thoughts on this

Cover Iconography in Batman: The Knight
I've been wanting to make this post forever after I keep noticing new things about the B:TK artwork, so here it is! A comprehensive post of things in the Batman: The Knight covers that make me crazy beyond belief. This isn't meant to be a definitive "this is what the covers are supposed to be!" post, and is more just my interpretation of them.
The one thing about the covers is that I think is the most notable at first glance is the continuous presence of a lone bat silhouette in 9/10 of the issues. I've roughly outlined them below.
Tumblr media
Issues #1-#9 feature some variation of a bat within them, somewhere in the background for most of them. The only instances where they appear in the foreground are in issues #1 and issue #8. (I switched #7 and #8 on accident, so if you can't see, #8 is in the bottom left corner </3) Issue #1 features a literal bat, whose ears you can just barely see peeking out at the bottom, while issue #8 creates a bat outline with the combination of blades + Bruce's face. Issue #8 is less significant than issue #1 in this aspect, because issue #1 directly links to the last issue's cover.
Tumblr media
Issue #10 is the first and only issue to have a literal, fully-fledged bat depicted on the cover without it solely appearing in some form of a silhouette. (There's a vague bat silhouette behind it as well, but I forgot to outline it my bad LOL) Issue #1 gives us a look at a bat, perhaps the same one shown in #10's cover, and outlines Bruce's overall journey prior to becoming Batman. He's starting out in issue #1, while issue #10's cover comes full-circle and indicates that he's ready to begin his work as Batman. We're also all (hopefully) familiar with the notable Window Bat that smashed through Bruce's window and gave him the idea to be bat-themed in the first place. #10's cover is most definitely a link back to that, and it pleases me!
Tumblr media
The second half of what makes the covers so goddamn insane to me focuses on the covers of issues #4, #5, and #6. The other 7 covers are primarily black/red, with hints of white. These three issues, however, are the opposite. They're primarily white/red, with hints of black. If you're overwhelmingly familiar with the exact content of these issues like I am, you're probably already catching on. If you haven't, then let me explain :3
Although Bruce interacts with Khoa in issues other than #4-6 (he's in #8-10 as well), those three issues effectively outline the beginning of his and Bruce's relationship. They meet in issue #4, are seen doing everything together in issue #5, and effectively "break up" in issue #6. The presence of white in these covers directly correlates to Khoa, whose color palette is white to contrast Bruce's primarily black palette, both with their regular clothing and suits.
The covers of issues #4-6 are almost overwhelmingly white, likely in a direct representation of how Bruce himself feels about Khoa; he allows himself to get close to him, and Khoa/the color white begins to bleed into his life, overwhelming Bruce/the color black. Khoa flooded every aspect of Bruce's life to the point where it got brighter in the most literal sense, with the covers becoming more white. After Khoa leaves him, Bruce states that "he's alone and his heart is shattered all over again." We see this shift in their relationship depicted directly in the following covers (#7-10), which are significantly lacking in white compared to issues #4-6.
So, TLDR; DC says Bruce Wayne doesn't like men & then goes and imply that meeting Khoa changed Bruce to the point where he saw Khoa reflected in his surroundings. This is mostly a joke but also I just genuinely cannot get over the fact that the damn covers changed just because of Khoa.
