So, yeah. Batman 681. If you haven't read it, get out, unless you want to be spoiled. A friend of mine was really into Batman RIP, and kept on saying how excited he was for 681, which as you know came out today. So I decided to check it out. I liked it. Didn't "love" it, but did indeed like. So what are your thoughts? Here are pics that I thought were cool out of it. (take them if you want them for a sig) Personally, I think that first pic of Bruce is pure epic. And the one with him coming out of his grave is just awesome. I don't know why, but I just like the one with Robin on his bike. Which brings us to the last one I posted (yes, i posted it last for a reason)... Nightwing looking down at Batman's cowl. It sends shivers down my spine. It's just so... right. Discuss...

Loved the issue. Loved the entire run, and it is probably my favorite Batman story. I think Morrison's promise of the biggest reveal in 70 years almost comes true. The Black Glove being the reason Batman came to be is pretty huge. And Simon Hurt/Thomas Wayne being the devil himself is the way I'm seeing things. There are just so many clues pointing towards it. "Zorro in Arkham" (zur en arrh) is the reason that I truly love this issue and the story. The fact that the trigger phrase was planted on that night is fantastic.
And yeah, the shot of Nightwing is pretty epic, and I hope that after Final Crisis 7 and Battle of the Cowl, that Dick is Batman until Bruce returns.

Heart of Hush was better. It was a decent story, but had equal parts of "This is odd which makes it cool" and "What the is going on?"

Wow, I thought the same thing about Batman RIP! Small world, sir Spamalot. Did you read it, SYE? If so, thoughts? Have you ever seen National Lampoon's Vacation? Chevy Chase and company drive all the way from Chicago to LA, enduring obstacles, delays, and hillarity along the way, all in the undying quest to reach Wally World - the happiest place on Earth. When they finally get there, they are greeted by a talking moose, informing them that Wally World is currently closed for renovations. That's kind of how I felt about "the biggest Batman reveal in 70 years".
