Batman 655

So I have a new favorite comic. Yes, yes, I know I always have a new favorite comic. And, okay, technically this one hasn't even come out yet, but I know it will be the best thing in years. Some of you might remember an older Batman book called Son of the Demon. This is a great book about Batman joining forces Ra's Al Ghul. It's not really important what they were doing, just that Ra's gets Batman to marry Talia. Which of course leads to other things. Adult things. I don't want to say too much because you should really read it for yourself. Unfortunately DC decided years ago to write it out of continuity. But now, with the crisis that just happened, it's back in! Which leads nicely into the new story arc in Batman called Batman and Son. Yes. BATMAN AND SON. Written by, wait for it...., Grant Morrison! Andy Kubert is doing the art, so this is sure to be one of the big hits of the summer. In the second issue, the ever wacky Morrison has Batman fight fifty ninja Man-bats. Because obviously one ninja Man-Bat would be too simple.
