I agree. I got lost a few months back, and can’t afford buying Bat comics that seem to go nowhere.
I am sick of DC trying to sell comics by making un-nessesary changes.
Let’s just get back to some great stories and art of Batman kickin ass like nobodys business.

Oh, and including the main Bat villians, of course.

“Bruce building a backup personality in case he ever went nuts.”

See, that in itself is the big problem here. The guy watched his parents die and decided that the only way to cope was to wear a batsuit and build absurd cars with his live-in English butler for the rest of his life. Where do you draw the line at ‘crazy’ in that situation?

RIP just went way too far into the ‘far out concepts’ and held no real joy for me. I wonder if Dini’s series is still any good. Not enough to buy it, but I wonder still.

I agree with you on the Blackest Night thing. I’m a huge fan of Geoff Johns’ GL stuff yet I’m avoiding this crossover entirely. Sinestro Corps War was an unexpected hit, I think that DC is just trying to multiply their dollars by crossing it over into every book they publish… which will not work.

I don’t believe Hurt was really Thomas Wayne.
As Alfred said, “I knew Thomas Wayne, and you sir are not him.”

RIP had some cool ideas, like Bruce building a backup personality in case he ever went nuts.
But it was messy towards the end and some things are sacred, like the death of Bruces parents.

As for RIP leading into Crisis, leading into Blackest Night…
Meh, I’m too old skool for all this crazy sci fi shit, I like my Bat HARDBOILED, wake me up when Bruce gets back.

[...] enjoying the post-Dark Knight boom in popularity, taking the initiative to not only kill off (kinda) the ManBat but replace him with the comic double-threat of a woman and a lesbian is a big [...]

Now that Final Crisis has ended we know that Batman is alive (on some other planet? in the future?? who knows) painting pictures, so it looks like he’s taking a well deserved if awkward vacation.

I think that they should Wayne dead. They have opened a very good possibilty by canceling Robin and Nightwing. One of them should take the up the tital. Robin would be ideal, it would forfill his ‘titans of tommorow’ destiny in a different way.

Actually, that issue explains very little. Batman has been absent from Final Crisis for nearly 4 issues and suddenly pops up so he can get killed? I don’t think so.

What we see in the issue is a dude in a beaten-up Batman costume who shoots Darkseid with a magic bullet then is struck himself by Darkseid’s ‘Omega sanction’ (and smiles for some reason). Then Superman walks out holding a skeleton in a Batman costume.

Because of the poor writing of Final Crisis, it’s hardly a definitive statement on Batman’s fate.

Bruce wayne is dead, he is dead… Final Crisis 6. Get it! Because of the Obama cover, this was covered up but he is dead. The last page will blow your f**king mind. (more than an 5 page Obama meets Spiderman will ever)!
