BC is taking some tweets from Snyder as confirmation that he's moving to Detective Comics although I'm not so sure about that. The whole exchange is about his time with Capullo in the title and how he wants to enjoy the time they have left there. He did mention a huge new project with Capullo around six months from now though. Also, BC is reporting that Marc Silvestri will be taking over art duties in Batman.

If he's been working on it for over a year, it probably wouldn't be the main title.

A Jeff Lemire Batman book would be cool. Get the artist from his Animal Man run, have it be some kind of serial killer mystery I'm all for it.

The Red Hood One stuff is the weakest part of Zero Year, it's way too on the nose and he already talks like Snyder's awful Joker from Death of the Family. I can forgive this because Zero Year is otherwise fantastic.

We are Robin was pretty good and heart wrenching this week. I didn't really follow Robin War so I'm glad I didn't need to to enjoy this week's WaR and Grayson. Both comics were excellent and I am looking forward to the new arcs.

Well, Grayson straight up ignored the big reveal for Dick that it's own writer put at the end of Robin War. He joins the Court of Owls. Not that I'm mad. Maybe the plot is on the backburner till King and Seeley come back after whatever Rebirth is, but this one was incredibly fun.

Hey guys, talking with a friend I remembered seeing on here a comic where batman was an older guy that used guns and shot criminals constantly, was a mini or something. Any ideas? My google-fu is proving weak.

It'd sure be weird if that was the case. King wrote the Robin War bookends and the second to last Grayson was a chapter in it. Teenage Fansub fucked around with this message at 10:47 on Feb 1, 2016 |

Another BC rumorquote:I understand from multiple parties that Tom King, writer of Grayson, Omega Men, Sheriff Of Babylon, Futurama and The Vision comics, is favourite at DC Comics to take the reigns. When I least heard, it wasn’t quite locked down, but it was expected to happen by all parties.

Batman Europe was FANTASTIC Honestly I wouldn't mind if Azzarello gets to write more Batman down the line, he gets the characters a lot better that many other writers. Hell, he even brought master planner Bane back!

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:Batman Europe was FANTASTIC Hasn't Azzarello written a decent amount of Batman? The only thing of his I've read is Batman/Deathblow which... well it looks loving amazing, but I could not follow the story. I liked the concept, but I don't know if I needed to know more about Deathblow to understand it or if it's just a tangled web of double crosses and triple crosses that confused me, or both.

Honestly I feel like this reveal was meant to be shocking and unforeseeable, even though people have been calling the twist since as early as issue 12 or 13 when we learned Cass' first kill was some random woman.

We've been teased this whole time that one of Batman's helpers was one of these kids, ordered for him (In flashbacks, to investigate her, Bruce was pretending to be looking for a replacement for Dick) Was it Tim?! Nope, Harper!

Norns posted:Stop giving good guys guns in batman. On the one hand, I'm not a fan of gun culture, and love that the world's most popular street vigilante superhero simply does not use guns. On the other hand, I like to think that Batman's whole thing is taking shadows and fear and uncertainty and isolation—all the things that hurt him in his origin—and using them to protect people. He's there to say "These things are on your side, now. No more children need to be be hurt or scared by them". Batman exists, in part, to make sure no one else has his trauma. When he adopted Dick Grayson, Bruce Wayne let him live a whole childhood of defeating the sort of people who killed the Flying Graysons. Becoming Robin gave that kid the only sort of therapy a broken-rear end Bat-mind could supply: control, power, and the ability to straight up laugh at everything that might hurt him. Batman raised that kid to have none of the fears and weird compulsions that Bruce Wayne never got over. On some level, I think that every Batman sidekick who is at least comfortable around guns, is a success story for ol' Bruce. Not that they should want to use them, but, hey. I'm not making the editorial decisions on that stuff. e: I'm a serious man and no fan of fun culture, either, but I corrected that to gun culture above.

Old Batman comics have indicated that learning to use firearms has been a part of Bruce's training, even showing him teaching the skill to various Robins as they prepare for their vigilante debuts. All of Harper's stuff is tazers and techno-babble though.
