Those are the variants, right? Did they publish the main cover as well?

It's the Dynamic Duo! Batman and Robin!... and Red Robin and Red Hood and Nightwing and Batwoman and Batgirl and Orphan and Spoiler and Bluebird and Lark and Gotham Girl and Talon and Batwing and Huntress and Azreal and Flamebird and Batcow?
Since when could just anybody do what we trained to do? It makes it all dumb instead of special. Like it doesn't matter anymore.

Sucks his book is getting dragged into the crossover. It is expected I guess, but I have no interest in these kind of crossovers. I get they can allow for artists to take a break, but I have no patience for them anymore. They aren't worth the money. I also don't enjoy Tynion's writing, so that makes it twice as bad now that he is leading the Batman book events. Just super annoying.

Storywise not really. Maybe if a book or character is in a rut they can use it to shake things up, but it mostly just derails ongoing books and disrupts their own story pretty badly. Usually there is a temporary sales bump too because the books are tying into the bigger Batman titles, but the sales jump never lasts beyond the crossover now I think. Maybe during the Snyder era you saw books hold onto more of their increases, like the Nightwing book during the Court of Owls stuff and the batgirl book during the Death of the Family with Joker, are ones that come to mind but I can't remember the last event/crossover where it felt like any books really benefitted aside from the main Batman book which is getting all the attention and focus for these big crossovers. Then I guess they can repackage the event into some trade too to resell again down the line.
