Grant Morrison has been dubbed the “revamp guy” over at the DC offices. Two years ago, they gave him Batman, and Morrison’s been building to this story ever since. From the checklist postcard: “Everything in Grant Morrison’s groundbreaking run on Batman has been leading to this, and nothing will ever be the same again. Who will live? Who will die? Who will be Batman? The answers will shock you!” And will I care long enough to buy the next issue? Okay, yeah, I’ll be there cuz I don’t know any better.
Join the ride as I take apart two years worth of Batman comics and two-thirds of Batman R.I.P. I think it’s worth it so far, I just hope the momentum continues!
