Bruce Wayne as the ONLY Batman - check
Barbara Gordon as Batgirl - check
Damian Wayne as Robin - uh..., so I guess it's official that this "reboot" is not intended to fix all that's wrong.

In reference to Dan Didio wanting to skew the heroes younger, or earlier in the careers, how is keeping Bruce Wayne a father of a ten year old skewing younger???

*************************************

Making Bruce Wayne about 30 is still making him younger.

And, for some reason, I just have a sneaking suspicion that DC is going to make one major alteration in his history......  Time for spoiler mode:


 INVISO TEXT (Click or highlight to reveal):
I think DC is going to keep Thomas Wayne alive and have Bruce as the second-generation Batman.  If that happens, that means Bruce could have been Robin to his father's Batman.  And Damian could still be the result of a Bruce and Talia affair, just done when they were 18 or so. That, if done properly (and that's a big IF), could be cool.

How is Bruce being Batman the Second and having a kid in any way "cool"?

So rumour is that Perez will be writing and drawing Superman. That's almost the only thing that has me interested in this relaunch.

If that be the case, Leigh, I might postpone my "jumping off" on that title. Perez' art alone would make it worth a look.

***************************************

I just think it would be an interesting take on the character then.  Instead of Batman being just a pissed off guy in a bat-suit, he has a legacy to live up to now.  (Granted, Thomas Wayne is being presented as nearly psychotic so far in Flashpoint.... so hopefully that would be tempered a lot.)
