Also included in this special edition are Ellison’s original prose story outline and the complete, original pencils by Garcia-Lopez.

[MajorHoy]

* Batman Eternal is a definite
* so is Detective Comics

otherwise, all the following are only "likely" at this point:
* Arkham Manor
* Batgirl
* Batwoman
* Gotham Academy
* Batman '66 Meets Green Hornet

[OWL45]

Grayson! Grayson! and more Grayson! I will also pick up Batgirl, Batman, and Batman &Robin. Jason being venomed out is intriguing so I might pick up. The Batman line of books overall look great. I'm going to be dropping a lot of Marvel titles to stay in budget.

Restarted the poll to include Gotham By Midnight #1 .


- The tease around Endgame is wearing thin - c'mon already!
- Will Batman/Superman already be on its last legs without Jae Lee?
- Loving the idea of Batwoman and Demon team-ups, just hope the art and tone is suitably horrific.
- John Paul Leon does Batman - would love if they made this a "regular fill in team" on Tec. Ha.
- Huge month for '66 - will be grabbing the Elison/Wein/JLGL Two Face issue for sure - what a weird and awesome convergence that is.
