IMHO it is very hard for any comic writer to be in the business for 18 years and not develop a legion of people who dislike him/her. Hell, you have DC fans that despise Geoff Johns after everything...

You pretty much have to believe he wouldn't be coming to DC to take over minor characters. My guesses are JLA and a new All-Star Batman
One other point - why is it necessary for every Batman writer to show Bruce as the worst father ever? I get it, being Batman is the more important to him, but there are some interesting stories you...
This whole King run has been such a huge disappointment for me. Just way too many things that make no sense thrown in for a "cool" moment. If you are going to have them on horseback can we at least...
Not sure about that
43 here. First issue of Batman was 357 and I haven't missed anything since. I will say that I am generally a big Tom King fan, that said this Batman run has been underwhelming to say the least. War...
I think of myself as a Batman "traditionalist", but I have absolutely no problem with the idea that sometime early in his career, while in the aftermath of a brutal war, he took a whack at someone....
^^^Yes, although I would say Catwoman is probably the most recognizable "villain" outside of the Top 2
The only problem with this is that under King's pen I'm sure he calls Jason "Red" all of the time
What the actual heck is going on with this title? I loved Orlando's other DC work, but this is bad? strange? bad and strange? This felt like a really bad issue of Batman from the 50s given the...
I hear all of your complaints and agree to some degree. I just think Batman is a very problematic character in a shared universe of powerful beings. On the one hand, he's far and away DC's most...
In JLA, Batman says that he formed that team to deal with threats "on the ground", while the JL is there to deal with threats "from the sky". Allegorical, but I took it to mean the JLA deals with the...
In comic book logic he was wearing a hood, so maybe not. I mean no one realizes a muscular brunette is Superman when he puts on glasses
I'm not always the biggest Snyder fan, but I thought this was really well done. Perfect kick-off issue introducing all sorts of questions. My only gripes are Romita's art, which I can enjoy at times,...
We are dealing with a corporation. The movie Wonder Woman may make $800 million in 2 months, it is unlikely that Wonder Woman comics will make $800 million total even if they are published for the...
I mean he directly speaks to what your talking about in the issue when he tells GG that most people do it to be a hero. I thought it was pretty clear that he has contemplated it and is self aware....
Or maybe seeing his father made Bruce reconsider why he does what he does. I thought it was pretty clear his thinking has evolved
I really enjoyed this issue and thought it was very well done. IMHO these are the kind of stories that King excels at writing
It certainly could be if it is in response to Wonder Woman
To be clear, there is no one that wants JL to be more successful than me. That said, there are a lot of things "not normal" going on with JL - the most apparent one being Joss Whedon being brought in...
Maybe the engagement will end when Selina lifts the Wayne family china to sell on the black market. Nah, I actually think this will stick and end in a marriage in Detective 1000
I think the overwhelming success of SuperDad and Jon Kent played into this. People seem to be in the mood for good relationships and family. Don't be surprised if a little Helena is on the way at...
I'm sure it will be one of the complications of the engagement and would probably lead to a real interesting character moment between Bruce and Gordon (maybe a full, final reveal?)
Maybe I wasn't clear. Batman is tied up for most of the rest of the year with Jokes and Riddles. I agree with you that the advancement of this will be handled by King in Batman while Tynion does his...
Seems pretty obvious they will get married on a rooftop
