That art is beautiful. Between Clay Mann, Joelle Jones, Mitch Gerards, and now Lee Weeks, the caliber of guest artists this book has had is absolutely unbelievable. It really makes me wish we had some combination of these guys as the primary rotating artists instead of Janin and Finch.
I also like the idea of Selina knowing who Batman is even early in their careers. I'm excited for this.

That would be weird to "break them up" when the next writer came in.

Yes I was thinking that too. Although, I kind of like my artists to stay on for longer periods of time. Kind of like Tim Sale you know? Originally Posted by CryNotWolf

You mean it's not just because he's a bad writer who pads out issues by repeating dialogue all the time? Originally Posted by CPSparkles

Man, amazing art. I think no one would mind if they did the the art on every future issue of Batman until the end of time while they are kept alive and young via Lazarus Pits.

I think it definitely works with King's interpretation of their history and relationship (though Catwoman continuity still feels like a mess). Originally Posted by CryNotWolf

Her Post-COIE thru 2011 and New 52 continuity will always be a utter mess. Best we can hope for is that stuff like her precise origin and when she learned Bruce was Batman don't continue to be changed after King. Originally Posted by Frontier

So excited for this. I don’t care if they end up getting married or not, I’m just enjoying the ride. Also, I’m glad Lee Weeks is receiving the recognition he deserves. He’s a top artist with a low profile as far as I know, so it’s great to see him handle a Batman comic that goes to second printing. Did Batman/Elmer Fudd went to 2nd printing?

Old Bruce and Selina reminds me a lot of Batman Beyond Bruce (just not as frail) and older Julie Newmar.

I can't believe I'm actually excited to read a Batman comic. But I'm loving the Selina/Bruce story and this looks amazing.

Even Duke and... Carrie?... Who is that blonde man, Azrael?
and the man to the left to Steph, is Tim(even if King never used him here) or Damian? I don´t like the idea of use characters like Duke or Carrie here in the last bruce moments, but no Damian..
Fortunatelly I leave King long time ago..

That annual was something. Funny, cute, and very emotional.
King didn't forget Helena. We can die in peace...but if she's now Batwoman, what of Kate?
Wonder what happened to Damien? Maybe his omission is a deliberate plot point.
Is the other red-head Dick and Bab's daughter or Carrie? Hmmm...
I think Fudd even cameos in it at one point.
