Why is Batman rescuing a sex doll?

I'm not the only one seeing that, right?
From Marvel's Conspiracy to one from DC, from Legends of the Dark Knight #86, "Conspiracy, part one" Written by Doug Moench, pencils by J.H. Williams, inks by Mick Gray. That hand gesture doesn't help matters, either...

Yet another batch fished from the quarter boxes, this one is not my favorite LotDK arc, since I think Moench did a better version of this story (involving bizarre cults and sacrifices, mind-control, bikers, and actors) on Moon Knight, and Williams hadn't yet blossomed into a star. I don't know if he's left the Batwoman feature in Detective Comics yet, but DC had better put some effort into finding his replacement, 'cause he's going to be a tough act to follow there.

it is definitely a subliminal or is it clear? Batman loves sex toys.

Because he's...lonely?

Does he need a reason? He's the goddamn Batman!
