I thought when you mentioned the Countess it was a Wonder Woman villain, who seemed to be a Nazi leader from WW2, were they the same character? It's been a long time since I read that stuff but I thought she was more magical.

I can't believe they're doing the "make Nora Fries a ridiculous villain" thing again.

I had the brown and tan Wolverine play costume from 91’ when I was six. It was just a plastic mask with a velcro strap, and a molded plastic glove with pop out claws. In 92’ it was recolored to yellow and blue. I’m happy they recently brought back the brown and tan in the comics.

Maybe Tim is finally taking a new name like Nightwing that doesn't involve Robin or any Red variations thereof. Finally criminals of the DCU will fear... the Shitbird.

Something involving Ravens or Crows would be appropriate for Tim because they are the smartest birds and he's supposed to be an even better detective than Batman, and it sticks with the bird theme. Of course the original Robin was named after Robin Hood, not the bird, so ditching the bird theme entirely would also be appropriate.

I just finished Planetary, not counting the crossovers. I don't think it was as clever as it thought it was, but it was still a fun read. And the multiverse stuff is giving me campaign ideas.

Yes, someone that looks like alfred got his neck snapped in front of a crying Damian while begging not to be murdered in front of his adopted grandchild, but in a world of clones, alternate versions of yourself running around and also just really advanced surgery/prostethics it could just as well be a fakeout. I would really not take it at face value just yet

I'm glad someone is finally exploring the tragic side of being Batman. For too long he's been this goofy comedic figure and I've always wondered "What if a Batman story was dark?" and "What if I felt bad while reading comics?"

There are sooo many things bothering me about the entire story line Damian confirmed this is the flashpoint batman, but he was never a great martial artist, but now he's good enough to not only hold his ground but also beat Bane and Batman? Like even Damian should be able to whup his butt The extremely convoluted master plan was just ridiculous Damian has a magic item that can neutralise GG, but doesn't use it on alt-bats. Sure, makes sense. Pretending half a dozen superhero groups wouldn't rush in to take on GG, the reason they aren't is really the flimsiest of pretexts working as a load bearing pillar here Alfred acting wildly out of character by playing along with alt-bats plan, although this may be a red herring and the real alfred is locked in a basement somewhere I'll be very happy when this all wraps up, Kings batman has had some highs, but they don't compensate for the really low lows
