Two more issues to go before Tom King's run on the flagship Batman book comes to an end. I'm glad it'll all be over soon.

Urgh.
Waynes are morons, and so is the Batfamily now.
I'm so glad Ric and Jason aren't here, I can't tell you.
There is so much wrong with this issue. How long has Alfred been dead? Must be getting pretty ripe by now. Bruce magically recovered from multiple gunshot wounds just like he's magically recovered from having his throat slit and breaking his back multiple times (more humanized Batman my ass). Tim has also magically recovered from being stabbed in the chest so that's cool. Then we get this long winded thing from Alfred where King once again steals from actual writers to fill up space before giving a really stupid explanation as to why he lied about being all clear. The amount of mental gymnastics required to call this a good book is astounding. This was crap plain and simple and the best thing about it is that it's one more down until this travesty of a run is over.
I see, King is back with the poems and "Only Selina ever brought Bruce happiness" nonsense.
Some of Alfreds words would be nice, if I was able to ignore everything wrong with this run that surrounds them.
Alfred deserved a better run for his death.
I loved the Vision and I've liked all three of his Batman Annuals which makes his time on the flagship Batman book frustrating as it sucks.
1. "If I vomit poems from superior authors all over the page it means I'm a good writer, right?" Seriously, isn't this straight-up plagiarism?
2. King seems to be oblivious to the fact that Alfred did not become the Waynes' butler until after Bruce was born. This was even confirmed in All-Star Batman. Dini made the same mistake in his Streets of Gotham run, but still. So disappointing that continuity is just thrown out the window every f*cking week.
I went back to not reading when I saw the Batfamily get jobbed by an elderly Thomas Wayne. What happened now?
I heard that they are under MIND CONTROL..
REMEMBER that The Psycho Pirate is with Thomas.
DAMNIT. I can imagine it.. We will know how is he here and about his alliance with Bane.. King will add extra content to make this the complete issue(thomas saying your gotham is worst than mine.. etc..).. As you said No resolution.
