The first in an (eventual) series on "Citizen Soldier" Warbirds: aircraft that started as Civvies, but ended but being drafted for the War. The FW 200 started out as a peaceful airliner but became the "Scourge of the Atlantic".

McDonnell tries its best at making a fighter worthy of the Dark Knight. The Bat or Moonbat looked crazy cool, but had a nasty habit of bursting into flames. No word if The Joker was involved. It's Part V in the "Doomed Fledglings" Series!
