Jace Fox: Batman Appreciation 2022

“What the f*** is a Hellbat suit?”

Lol I wish this happens.

[Superboy-Prime]

He did steal Bruce's other mech armor, though.

Damian just pulls up with the Hellbat, “get in bitches, we’re going to punch Darkseid”

...Damian had it last in the Superman/Robin special.

Will Damian let him slide though? That brat's always got a problemo!

You know now that I think about it I feel bad for Jace in Dark Crisis. Because everyone is going to look to him to pull out extreme plans and crazy gadgets like a mech suit or a black lantern ring and Jace will just be like “yeah I don’t do really do that”

Oh, you mean like how Batman really should be portrayed. I despise heroes that don't know how to stay in their lane. Heroes team up because they are putting their unique skill sets together with other heroes to accomplish a collective goal. Batman doesn't need to handle a power ring, use super armor, and be the fighter while still finding himself the most gifted tactical thinker. Geez, enough with that!

I am very interested in seeing how fast power creep affects Jace. Getting involved in Dark Crisis already means he’s going to be dealing with cosmic concepts as opposed to the street level stuff he’s been focusing on in his solo.

Williamson said that Deathstroke has his own more ground-level plot in Dark Crisis, I think that's what he'll be dealing with. That old man's going down! I bet Ric will help too.

[J. D. Guy]

"I think I greatly underestimated exactly what the old Batman actually did..."

That skirts too close to "reverence" to my liking within this context, so I wouldn't want that to get indulged upon.

I'm skipping Dark Crisis so I'm curious if IAB has a tie-in issue.

Like I said I bet we will see Deathstroke vs Jace

Unlikely but I still hope not. IAB needs to stand on its own and not keep tying into events.

An issue of him interacting with Nightwing and Damian in the midst of a Crisis and before Dick's impending death wouldn't be so bad.

Yeah I doubt Ridley really wants to write a tie-in to a crisis event, even in Fear State he kept Jace to himself and grounded. If anything I expect someone like Williamson, because he's writing the main Batman book, to do a tie-in or maybe a special one-shot.

Heck maybe it will be called Batman and Robin, about him meeting Damian or something

[Frontier]

At best I think Ridley would off-hand mention stuff but probably not dwell on it.

[Superboy-Prime]

I think it's best he doesn't have a tie-in in Dark Crisis, Damian killing him in his own book wouldn't be so cool.
