That Avi is a real negative Nancy.

Now you see why he and I get along so well.

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.

@pobra17 So much YES to everything you just said.

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.

[comicculturewarrior]

He he. You are quite right about that.

i think Jeph Loeb would've done much worse than Miller's (terrible) All-Star run.

@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.

[Fallows1985]

well I've read the latest of his run and it seems good, little things hear and there but it was okay

[TheMSpot]

Just read the DC blog and O joy The Batman Beyond mini with be Tony Daniel FREE.

[BGranoff]

Avi is the man. what's his deviant art page please? Thanks guys.

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.
