*!*!*!* Batman: Battle for the Cowl (multiple titles) *!*!*!*​

​

"Batman: R.I.P." and FINAL CRISIS saw the end of Batman. Now, months following the disappearance of her protector, Gotham City sits at a precipice and it may be too far gone for Nightwing, Robin, Commissioner Gordon and the rest of the city's heroes to save the day. Batman's disappearance is actually caused by the character's apparent death at the hands of Darkseid in Final Crisis, which causes dissension in the ranks of his allies and enemies who fight for the right to become the new Batman.

*!*!*!* Azrael: Death's Dark Knight # 2 *!*!*!*​

​

The Suit of Sorrows worn by Azrael grants the power of wrathful vengeance. It magnifies the wearer's sins of imperfection. It is a death sentence waiting to be exacted. So then why do so many people want it? And why does Azrael, the new soldier for the Order of Purity, refuse to give it up even when he knows it will eventually kill him? With Gotham City torn apart by BATTLE FOR THE COWL, the new Azrael seeks to fill the void left by Batman's absence and redeem his tainted legacy, but the League of Assassins wants the suit for Talia and her own heir to The Dark Knight's mantle. And through it all, someone watches, waiting to snatch the prize from the winner

*!*!*!* Azrael: Death's Dark Knight # 3 *!*!*!*

If murder and suicide are sins before God, then what if you were asked to kill in the name of God and by doing so, it would ultimately kill you? To reclaim his damaged soul, to redeem the mistakes of his past and to make a difference in a Gotham City that has been torn apart by the death of The Dark Knight, Azrael must make a fateful decision – become a hero and die, serving in Heaven or reject the opportunity and live, damned to suffer in Hell.

And while large issues of life and death, morality and eternal salvation are weighed, Azrael must also confront the two parties interested in regaining the Suit of Sorrows: Talia al Ghul and Nightwing!

Thanks!

So far I am reading this - I like it but I dread when they will return Bruce - because the story lines works better with all of these b-rate heroes trying to fill in with the occasion miss and fail.

Other than Bruce, Nightwing has always been my favorite character. Good to see him as the center piece in a major storyline.

Bruce's return should be interesting tho

This is good shit. No way I'd have read all these books if I had to pay.

SPOILER!


















































The Batman's apparent death occurs in Final Crisis #6 when he confronts Darkseid. Batman announces that he will break his "no-gun" rule while facing Darkseid. Wielding an Apokalips-made gun, Batman shoots Darkseid in the chest with a bullet made of Radion (the same bullet used to kill Orion), just as Darkseid unleashes his Omega Sanction, or the "death that is life", upon Batman.[83] However, the Omega Sanction does not actually kill its target. The Omega Sanction sends the consciousness of the target into parallel worlds. Although the presence of Batman's corpse would suggest that he is dead, at the conclusion of Final Crisis it is revealed that Batman has been sent to the distant past where he is able to watch the passing of Anthro.[84][85]



WTF?!

 

[NnubianN]

Spoiled

















































So did all of Darkseid's previous Omega Beam victims suffer the same fate? Or was this a conscious choice by Darkseid? And if Bruce aint 'dead' then he can't rise in Blackest Night unless all them that rose aint 'dead' either

The answer DC did not think that far ahead - Hence, their consistent dropped balls.

Indies and Novels for the win!
