SPOILERS: Post-"Convergence" Batman Identity Leaks Online

[jules]

So i was thinking. With the identity of the new Robo Bat Cop being who it is, what are the odds that .Jr pops up.

He popped up when Jim went to jail in Eternal. I can't imagine he wouldn't come back to mess with his dad's mind some more if he got wind of this.

So it may very well depend on how secret Jim's new job turns out to be.

A little birdy told me this is only going to last a handful of issues (for those of you that might think this may be dragged out).

A birdy we should all trust?

If this only lasts like 5 issues, then I think that makes more sense for Jim. It is a stretch as far as a status quo for him (he's far less than a JPV or Dick, robosuit or not).

If true, that this is brief, then just makes you wonder what it's store for Bruce.

That's good to know assuming the "little birdy" is correct about it. Still doesn't change the fact that I'm moving to trade waiting Batman for a bit. Even Endgame at six issues has felt a bit drawn out to me and that was even before the last issue being delayed happened. I am curious about what happens after this though.

I share a LCS with Snyder, and it wasn't right from his mouth but it was said at the shop (by a worker trying to calm down a guy all "it's a bunny suit, how will anyone like this?!" Rant). It could all be hogwash, but I doubt it.

Well, Scott Snyder has said repeatedly that he and Capullo only have plans up to issue #50. So unless that has changed very recently, I don't see Jim staying as Batman beyond that.

If what was said is true, Batman will be back by issue 45. Also, Snyder has said tha if he's wanted he'd go past 50. I'm sure that will wind up happening.

Ya I can see the novelty of the whole thing wearing off after 6 issues at best. Anything after that would feel dragged out IMO.

[DGraysonWorldsGreatestSpy]

If its a short run and Bruce comes back after 5 or 6 issues that I will walk a little back on my statements of feeling this was an uninteresting move.

Why a bunny armor?

[joybeans]

I really can't believe it, he just sounds so out of character especially the bit about the batmobile

Well, Snyder's signed on until #50, so it won't go further than that, even if Snyder stays on the title.

[AUScowboy]

What else could he have done? I guess it sets up the status quo for June quite nicely.

[William300]

So, with Batman being KIA it looks like were going to need a new Dark Knight. It was leaked a while back that the new Batman will in fact be (SPOILER alert), Commissioner James Gordon. Gordon will be piloting a anime style mech (no I'm not joking), and wielding a canon sized pistol (I'm curious about who he's fighting sense most of the Bat-villains aren't superhumans who would require a mech). So what do you think?

[Dr. Cheesesteak]

It actually has me interested in the title for the first time since Court of Owls. I'm hoping Snyder's command of Gordon is better than that of Bruce.

And I think it's okay, you dont need to spoiler warn us. We all pretty much know.

[BloodOps]

Honestly? Pretty lame.

It is up to Snyder and Capullo to change my mind.


There is only one replacement for Bruce and it isn't a cop in a mechanical suit.
