Mannn this might be on of my favorite Batman run. Zur Batman is dangerous but I love it and that version of him kinda better than regular Batman. He literally put the fear of GOD into joker after breaking his back. Selina’s plan was always flawed just for the fact that if you train criminals how to be better criminals they can always betray you for a better opportunity, so I kinda seen that coming. But I loved seeing Jason instigating while Bruce and Selina argue. Overall it was great, I loved everything about it.

I loved seeing Batman Bane Joker.... That was beautiful

Catwoman's plan is as bad as Batman not spending more time building up the people

Can you do history of Cyclone, Rhino, Sandman, Chameleon, Scorpion and the Human Fly along with Kurt Connors the Lizard. Also can you do the history of the Flash Villains like Turtle, Magenta, Cobalt Blue, Mirror Master and Top?

*[**4:56**]* -"Batgirl- Batwoman then says..."

I hate that the moral conflict between Batman and Catwoman was just immediately thrown out and her idea was just written off as wrong

Love this Rebirth story line all of them have been amazing top writers go 1. Tom King 2. Chip ZDarsky 3. James Tynion

I don't know why the hell just batman break every bones of joker or just both legs and arms every villain he fight giving bruce more vacation time 😂

No joke the turtle pops and turtle figure is all I want lol.

I love cats plan. While not a final solution, it leaves the villains vulnerable. More than they've ever been. And considering that the joker war was also happening at the same time. Bats has always been able to prioritize, considering to fund his crusade needs tax evasion and embezzlement, non violent crimes should be off his radar right now. And if he caught anyone, he could always just make them put it back and let them walk and move on to the next score, he's done pretty much the same for cat.

Failsafe's design is kinda weak Generic looking If not for the ears he's basically just another robot He needs an exoskeleton or a skin.

Are you going to do history of the Supreme Intelligence, Ronan the Accuser, Dar-Benn and Ael-Dan who all played a major role in the upcoming The Marvels movie? Are you going to do history of Jentorra, Kryler(played by Bill Murray), Multiple Man, Cassie Lang as Stature/Stinger and the city of Chronopolis in honour of the Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumainia movie?

2 күн бұрын

There's absolutely nothing smart about what Selina is doing.

So is the three joker’s story an alternate timeline or universe? Because I think it’s a great twist.

I can only imagine how much more unhinged dark knight returns zur is

Boy, dc characters like Batman are just too complacent in the misery they play in. They can’t leave Well Enough alone. Someone finds an actual solution to villain problems, and him and the Schmustice league just scoff and say “Yeah, let’s *Not* do that. Otherwise, we’re out of a job.” And things go right back to normal.

Wasn't Failsafe destroyed? How'd it return, & why? I'm a major Marvel guy, Avengers/X-Men, but some DC stories are certified can't miss!

With just a few days of prep Batman is supposed to be able to defeat super powered beings but with decades of prep he hasn't been able to figure out how to stop regular ass dudes from repeat offending. Selena had the perfect solution. It's far better to let [apparently unstoppable] criminals steal a little from those that can afford to lose it and hurt no one than to steal a lot from those who can't and may die in the process. Only Batman would want to straight up stop this method instead of just arresting these now petty thieves.
