I Am Batman #16 Spoilers/Discussion

[sifighter]

Or the one where Jace’s life gets completely torn apart. I mean normally that is hyperbole but I would ascertain that a lot of this issue was devastating to Jace’s life as a whole all at once.

Jace’s love life is basically done before it starts because of bad timing, he’s arguing with Tiff whose trying to be a vigilante and who has figured out Jace is Batman, someone is committing Random murders against people related to the Fox family company, and then things get revealed about his already fragile relationship with his father and mother that it may be beyond repair. Something kind of huge, that I don’t really want to spoil.

It really does feel like the overarching plot thread is the secrets you keep and how they hurt the ones you love. I don’t know what it will mean for Jace going forward but I can already tell next issue is gonna hurt.

I'm not sure if this is really a good point for Jace's character (I guess illegitimate son protagonists are hot right now) but it feels like he's now the proper conceptualization of Ryan Wilder in the comics.

I'm hoping Jace gets a season 2 like John gets with Adventure of Superman.

It's random but after reading an interview with Ridley I see the appeal.

Wherever this new twist goes I just hope it doesn't lead to endless dump on Lucius sessions.

Wherever this new twist goes I just hope it doesn't lead to endless dump on T'Challa sessions.

You mean that?

We have seen it done by Ridley once already.
