Eulogic Posted February 12, 2010 Posted February 12, 2010 Maaaan, I was really hoping for Athenian philospher Batman or Roman Batman, working with a straight member of the largely corrupt Praetorian guard to bring down criminals. Quote

The Author Posted February 12, 2010 Posted February 12, 2010 Well, I'm kinda disappointed in the 6 issue mini series... It could have lasted a while. Quote
Triad Orion Posted February 12, 2010 Posted February 12, 2010 Roman Batman would've been fricking awesome. He could've made ancient Rome his new Gotham for awhile! Quote
Monobrow Posted February 12, 2010 Posted February 12, 2010 Then he'll fight on a pirate ship, the Old West, the future, and finally face Shredder in the Technodrome! And then save his father as he falls out of a tree which accidentally stops his parents from meeting and has to fix up this time travelling mess before preparing to jump to 88 mph in his DeLorean during a freak lightning storm!

42 Posted February 12, 2010 Posted February 12, 2010 Not posting the image here because it'll stretch out the site, but here's the covers for all 6 issues.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v442/Walan/1265984442412.jpg The giant Bat symbol that extends over all six covers is amazing. a full rainbow of lanterns, including black, which brings people to life as zombies Maaaaaaaaaaaan... I like Blackest Night. >.> Quote
The Biznut Posted February 12, 2010 Posted February 12, 2010 I don't even know what to do with this. Quote
Kenogu Labz Posted February 12, 2010 Posted February 12, 2010 I don't even know what to do with this. Just stick out your hand, of course! *slap, slap, slap, slap...* And while this idea sounded totally cheesy at first, seeing all the covers somehow makes it ten times more awesome. Quote
HalcyonSpirit Posted February 13, 2010 Posted February 13, 2010 I don't even read comics, but... Batman wearing a fedora? Pure awesome. I'd read that one just for that. Quote

JCvgluvr Posted February 14, 2010 Posted February 14, 2010 Why is Batman traveling through time? (I don't read comics.) I know he got hit with Darkseid's Omega Beam...but that's it. I'm more of a DCAU kind of guy. Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill FTW! Quote
DarkeSword Posted February 14, 2010 Author Posted February 14, 2010 Why is Batman traveling through time? (I don't read comics.) I know he got hit with Darkseid's Omega Beam...but that's it. Omega Beam/Omega Sanction causes one to relive lives over and over again throughout different time periods. He's not so much traveling through time as he is lost in time. Quote
JCvgluvr Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 Alright, sounds like a satisfactory explanation. Thanks. Quote
LuckyXIII Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 Omega Beam/Omega Sanction causes one to relive lives over and over again throughout different time periods. He's not so much traveling through time as he is lost in time. I also haven't kept up much with comics - except for the occasional graphic novel - over the last few years, but I love how simple this explanation is. Bats, Wolverine, and Spider-Man are my favorite heroes (in about that order), but have y'all checked out All-Star Superman? Er, on-topic - I may just have to follow this particular series in the monthlies.... Quote
The Damned Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 Omega Beam/Omega Sanction causes one to relive lives over and over again throughout different time periods. He's not so much traveling through time as he is lost in time. Like Captain America was with that magic bullet that forced him to experience his life over and over without being able to stop? Oh, and now he's not dead as well. So, like... do the DC and Marvel writers just meet up for lunch occasionally and give each other their scripts? Because they seem to have coinciding plots and events every so often. Quote

42 Posted February 15, 2010 Posted February 15, 2010 He's not so much traveling through time as he is lost in time. Like, how exactly is he lost in time and how will he move through the different time periods? Regardless, wasn't there some mention of throwing Bruce's mortal remains into a Lazarus pit? So, if Bruce somehow makes it to the present by however he's shifting through the time periods, does that mean that there might be two Batmans (Batmen?) running around? 8O8O8O (Unless, of course, the Lazarus pit is how they get Bruce into the present. In which case, =P) Quote

In which case, =P) You need to read the latest issue of Batman & Robin; it very clearly spells out what the deal is with the body that was put into the Lazarus pit. I'm refraining from posting spoilers because this is stuff that is going down right now in the comics. The latest issue of B&R just came out. Quote

The Damned Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 Oh good, someone replied to a comment made over two weeks ago. Thank you internet, I was getting worried there for a moment. Honestly? I think the fifth one is the one I want to read the most. Given, I will read them all, but that one looks the most interesting to me. I think it's because he's not in a complete costume. He's more like The Question, or perhaps The Spirit (god, that movie sucked...). I think it would be interesting to see how his world would be if he wasn't completely disguised. Quote
