Enjoyed this book quite a bit. A little lacking on the art, I thought. And Oberon Sexton...hmm...i still don't know what to make of this guy...oh well. Only time will tell I guess.
Pretty sure that black mask is the Joke if not guess who's coming back in #700, and if Tony Daniel is leaving Batman he isn't going far, DC is launching a Batman Beyond series, and in a interview Daniel said that if Damien or Tim became Batman he would of used the costume from that series. I just would like to know why DC (SORRY Daniel) is trying to rape one of my favorite cartoons with his shitty art or am I over reacting. GOD I hope I am, I really do.
Few corrections meant to say the Joker, and that's about it. Tony Daniel still sucks and long live Grant Morrison's Batman and Robin series. Do you think that All-Star Batman and Robin would have been better if Jeph Loeb wrote it as rumored and cause him to go into hiding and not Frank Miller. Either way these are two writers, along with a few others who are suffering from a case of being to clever for their own good or not clever enough.
@TheMSpot I think DC's original plan was to bring the Joker back in Batman & Robin under Grant Morrison, you may be right, and Daniel is supposed to stick around on the main bat title for a while unfortunatley.
No wait....to easy. It's a bait and switch like when everyone thought Super Nova was Superman in 52. I think it's one of the International Batmen, probably Knight.
I can't wrap my head around the idea that DC is rewarding Tony Daniel's insufferable mediocrity by allowing him to continue writing and drawing what is arguably their biggest book.
I have yet to find anyone who is actually, really enjoying his run. I think most folks are just holding out until Batman #700. I predict a steady decline in sales after 700.
The book sells so there's no reason for DC to pull Daniel off the book. In fact, I've heard his run on Batman referred to as 'acclaimed' so you know he's being perceived as successful outside of DC as well.
uuuuum hey guys if i posted a bunch of comments im sorry, my computer is broke a little and it wont tell me if i posted comment or not. im sorry in advance :(
I read about that earlier. What a load of shit. Well, at least it's saving me money because I know that is one Bat book I won't be buying which is fine because when Birds of Prey starts up again I'll be picking that up.
Damian seems to be almost as hated as Jason Todd was. Speaking of a-holes, DC stated that Tony Daniel would be remaining on the main Batman title for quite a while now, now I need to find ALOT of Tequila to kill the pain :)
I liked the Batman Beyond series UNTIL... we found out in Justice league Terry is a Bruce clone and Cadmus killed Terry's dad to make sure he became the new batman. * Lame*
terry dad was killed all on his own and technically terry is bruce son not his clone there was a wound it make sense as bruce was never quite up to task of knocking some chick up which he could have done at anytime and had alfred help him.
It's not a device he succumbed to, he was brainwashed and a specific trigger was used to bring out the assassin in him. In this case the trigger seems to be a rose.
and @mattyb667, really? cause the sound effect thing used was like a "gerrrk" sound as if some 'device' triggered him.
Your prolly right tho. I should reread it. Either way, brainwashing is like marvel's oldest trick in the book. I'd expect better from GM. BUT, it still loved this issue and am very satisfied. I just thought that one small moment was a little cliche..
I could see the confusion you got. Also yeah brainwashing is used quite a bit in all media pretty much, I guess it's how you used it, and in this instance I was surprised so I didn't mind it. But I know what you mean and I'm not flaming you lol.
feels like jose is getting most of the mic. elliot's voice feels more strained for some reason. not that its a huge deal, but its something i picked up.
I like how Grant wrote Damian so differently as the weeks passed. Now he's a little more mature. Its cool seeing him now and then going back to when Grant wrote the main Batman comics and first brought him in.
Great vid guys - avi should be in more reviews! :)
Actually Jose wasn't feeling that well so we had the mic a little closer to him so that it would pick his voice up easier. Plus Avi is kind of a low talker, and I talk kinda loud.
Oberon Sexton is actually Deadpool! It makes sense! Plus he's not in enough comics as it is. It's time to put him in different companies comics too. Deadpool vs. Invincible. Deadpool meets Hellboy. Ash saves Deadpool. Oh and Wolverine and Green Lantern should be there too. They just don't have enough attention right now!
Oh and if anyone is interested in my review of Batman and Robin #10 (which I know you aren't) check out my review.
I thought this issue was okay, have to agree with Avii, I have to agree the last story arc wasn't all that good, I didn't really like Dick "killing" batwoman. I kind of found it strange that Damien was 'nice' to Dick in this issue consider how he was with him in the last issue.
Great episode, guys. New subscriber here. I'll check out Batman & Robin #10 for sure. Even though Quitely's gone, I'm content with the artist taking over.
dont diss the top hat man! its stylin lol. I loved this issue. it really made up from the last story arc which was really pointless. i do wish this was a longer series or have kept it in the batman title.

When Bruce returns wouldn't it be kinda cool if Damian decided to remain Dick's partner even if Dick returns to being Nightwing?

Honestly, I think that'd be better than Damian staying Robin. Bruce is just a one man show IMO.
Maybe you should try to get a hold of GM's email and hint that idea, haha :) no joke.

My only complaint with #10 was Grant fell victim to the cliches. Ugh. Seriously? Damian is controlled by some device in his neck by his mother?
what the fuck Morrison, you can do better than that shit...
but overall it was fair.

It's not a device he succumbed to, he was brainwashed and a specific trigger was used to bring out the assassin in him. In this case the trigger seems to be a rose.
