    Default How many people are planning to continue Tom King’s Batman after #50?

    I’ve read that a lot of people are sticking with it until the wedding but how many are planning to continue after based off of King’s writing? I know there are those who genuinely enjoy his work but for those who are on the fence, what would keep you on the book or cause you to leave?

    Batman and 'Tec are the only two series I read all the time so I'll be sticking it out.

    I'm planning on sticking around after #50. I don't waste my time on books I don't enjoy and even with its flaws I've been enjoying King's run.
    Supporting LION FORGE COMICS and other independent publishers.

    Check out Lion Forge's Catalyst Prime Universe. Its the best damned superhero verse in comics. Diverse characters and interesting stories set in a universe where anyone can be a hero. And company that prides itself on representation both in the comics themselves and in the people behind them.

    I will be sticking after #50. I like what Tom King has been doing with the characters and the art has been really great. It had been a long time since I read something drawn by Lee Weeks, who I find awesome, and Joelle Jones was a nice discovery. Clay Mann was a spot on choice for the title. Still, what really keeps me hooked is the writing

    What will cause me to leave it? Basically, feeling that King hasn’t anything left to say about Batman, or loosing interest on what he has to say about the character

    I mean he said he's staying at least until #100; so yeah, I'll stick around but I'm dropping 'Tec after Tynion is gone.

    Considering I rarely buy the book since King started, I don't anticipate changing that.

    And I'm more likely to consider buying Detective Comics once it's Tynion-free, as long as they don't make Tomasi the regular writer (AGAIN).

    Yes, "studliness" of the creators is one of the most important criteria to evaluate when deciding to purchase a comic book series.
