So I haven't read my Batman Annual #2 yet, but apparently my LCS implemented a one copy only policy for it. Is there something I don't know about it? It's going for $15 on eBay right now.

It's going for $15 on eBay right now. It's about Bruce and Selina's first encounters and them as an elderly couple at the end of Bruce's life. edit: But most importantly, it establishes Batman/Elmer Fudd as canon.

I like how under Tom King annuals have gone from "do they still print those?" to "the best stories of the year".

I bet there's a trade put out with the first part of the Annual, the Rooftops story, the Wedding and then the rest of the Annual.

If you didn't cry or even tear up after Batmannual you may be a psychopath e: they introduced another incarnation of the (Legion of) Super-Pets in the Super Sons Annual but retconned Ace (who only cameos asleep at the Manor) out as the canonical Bat-Hound for Titus  e2: it was a cute annual and Flexi the Plastic Parrot is my new favorite super-pet, but it did not need the romantic tension between Krypto and loving Streaky Autism Sneaks fucked around with this message at 23:04 on Nov 29, 2017 |

What is this like the 50th alternate future Batman ending? It's like trying to write all your finale catharsis moment without doing any of the work to get there. "Oh look, Bruce and Selina have a happy, successful marriage in the future maybe kind of who cares?"

Like he's aware of the medium, and this is the only way he can tell that story, knowing it will never actually be allowed to happen.

The pain of not letting Bruce grow and move on is acknowledged in the story. It's pretty special. edit: I do wonder if King will try to have them last as a couple through his entire run (assuming the universe doesn't reset next year) so aside from a meta statement, that really could be counted for the end of his story.

They're not even married yet and here's a story about their totally successful marriage in its end state. Just because DC is garbage doesn't somehow absolve its lack of verisimilitude. Same reason why Barry Allen is garbage or I roll my eyes every time they say stuff like Dick leading the JL one day. Two Tone Shoes fucked around with this message at 02:13 on Nov 30, 2017 |

Is Mister Miracle just having a hallucination from his suicide attempt? Like, I think the entire series is a dying dream.

I'll be honest, I feel like you spoiled it for me. That's a pre-existing that fits so perfectly to explain everything that hard not to believe that's gonna be the reveal. It even has pre-existing ties to it, would explain his obsession with Granny Goodness and, well, a lot of the comic.

I think him being trapped in some state between life and death right now is closer to what's happening. Maybe he's actually trapped in the anti-life equation?

Yeah, given all the repeition of DARKSEID IS, I think Scott's in a Anti-Life state and trying to escape.

I think it's all going to be "real". The horror is going to be that there isn't a Lump, anti-life equation, or even paranoid pills. He has cosmic level PTSD, and is trying desperately to keep it together.

Yeah, I'm actually leaning against the Lump theory at the moment, just because there's been nothing in the text of this series to hint at it. You would only know Lump even exists if you'd read Kirby's (or Morrison's) New Gods stuff, so it wouldn't feel like King was playing fair at this point. There's obviously still a lot of story to go, but with what we have so far, I think it will be something else.

I don't like how it's the movie JL emblem, but I do like the classic Bat shape that isn't used in the comics, so  It was amazing to see a straight up 1989 style yellow emblem at the end of Batman: Creature of the Night. I almost cried. edit: For some reason the plainness of the N52 Justice League title logo is something I like. Teenage Fansub fucked around with this message at 06:09 on Dec 1, 2017 |

This past issue was the most adult the Titans have ever acted. I guess it just took an alternate universe where they're aged up 20 years into their 50s for them not to act like idiot teenagers.

Just give Batman a big old bat-symbol with no words. For Det, have a talon holding a magnifying glass. Put a bow on it for Batwoman.
