Perhaps consorting with bats is no different than consorting with humans. The bats do not represent anyone in particular, only the idea of other persons. When in Rome do what the Romans do.
It’s interesting that you depict your character with no forehead, no hairline, a minimal suggestion of hair, outsized nose, under-sized lips, but very articulated clothing. Whatever Alice is telling the bat, he seems receptive to it. What the cartoon suggests to me is that people will go to extreme lengths to try to fit in with the world around them. When in Rome, act like a Roman, when in Batville, hang upside-down like a bat—?
Who do (each of) the bats represent; and why is she doing things THEIR way?

Thanks for your comments. Alice is drawn In a minimal way. I try to include only what’s important. I like your analysis of ” Consorting With Bats”.
