Bruce Wayne is Officially Batshit Crazy

Cave Bats

We all knew this was coming. It’s a bit too soon in my mind, but it’s hardly surprising. Bruce Wayne will fight his way back from history to retake his cowl in modern day Gotham City this April. And if this concept art from Andy Kubert is any indication, I believe Wayne’s trip through time has made him officially nucking futs.

Check out that big black bat emblem blazoned across his chest! I mean, seriously, who gives a fuck about superhero branding when you running from A FUCKING WOOLIE MAMMOTH!! Only a spoiled rich boy who’s spent way too much time with his marketing department would think to himself, “Okay, I’m stuck in a cave. Fuck, I need a bat emblem. How am I gonna strike fear into the hearts of mammoths if I don’t have my bat branding?” That’s some bullshit right there. Symbology does not belong on the “Things I Need to Survive Saber Tooth Tiger Attack” check list! Seriously, a giant bat head on your head, Bruce? You’ve fucking lost it.

    That emblem looks like a real bat to me (probably confirming the crazy). I think I would actually be more concerned with the fact that he was able to find a bat with a mouth a big as his head and that he actually sought one out.

    I agree except the way bat man went out was like a punk, Caps end was sad and poignant and he’s been around so long and his death was symbolic of the change in America and all that. So it makes sense for Cap to die and stay dead. But Bat man shouldn’t have died like that.

    Looks like some concept artist has been watching a lot too much Yor Hunter from the future.

    All that is missing at this point is a glider made from a stiffened corps of a massive bat thing, a theme song all about his cave batman adventures and a new Alfred periodically mentioning they’re going to need a lot more hemp.

    Well, if he meets Ra’s Al Gul in this time frame (that guy’s supposed to be immortal, right?), it’ll at least make an impression.

    I wish DC and Marvel would kill their characters. I’d find their stories much more enjoyable if I knew there was a chance they might actually die.

    Yeah, I kinda wish Dick Grayson got to be Batman for more than part of a year. I really wish it was a full hand over of the mantle rather than this weird come-back, battle through time crap. Grayson deserves to be Bats for longer.

    You’ll never be able to convince me that Bruce Wayne hasn’t always been off the deep end. You have to be nuts to break from everyday society like he did.

    I have to defend this, I think it’s a really cool idea. Did you see the image of Pirate Batman?

    The pirate lacks any of the aforementioned branding, while still looking really bad ass. Not to mention that by the time Bruce actually gets back Tim might be a little more comfortable being Batman and may not be so ready to give it up. Yeah, we can all unanimously agree that RIP ripped ass, but they’ve been doing really well with Blackest Night (easily my favorite comic book “event” of the last few years) hopefully they’ll bring a little of that to ROBW.

    @greg Did Bats do something new and crazy? Or is it just the vigilante thing? If it’s vigilantism then he’s not crazy just Chaotic Good (why people lump vigilantes in with Lawful Good is beyond me).
