Bruce is Simon. Dick is Randy. So poor Tim gets to be Paula?!!!

Nah, Harley is Paula . . . .

I'm reminded of the auditions in Mystery Men...

[Batman contender is fighting three goons. The first goes down, but he struggles with the last two. He takes out the third but is wheezing and having trouble standing straight.]
Bruce Wayne/Batman: What the hell was that?
Alan Ritchson: [nervously] Me being a superhero.
Bruce Wayne/Batman: One of the worst I've ever seen.
Alan Ritchson: [shocked] Okay.
Bruce Wayne/Batman: Alan, I hate you so much, I want to shoot you in your face and I don't use guns! You little creepy piece of crap. You'll never been the goddamn Batman!
Alan Ritchson: [quivering] All right.
Tim Drake/Robin: I like you, but you're just not right for this competition.
Dick Grayson/Batman: I gotta tell you for me, man, that was not even half good, dude. You can't fight. What're you doin' here, Alan? Go back to the minors and try again.
Bruce Wayne/Batman: Dick, why the hell are you talking like that. Maybe we should have you go through a try out again!
Dick Grayson/Batman: Maybe you should too. That clone was more Batman than you these days Mister 'Who Wants to be the Goddamn Batman'? Next thing you know they'll be saying we're gay for each other again and you'll hire Ryan Seacrest to host.
Alan Ritchson: [Trying to get attention] Ex-excuse me but did I win?
Bruce Wayne/Batman: What the hell do you think you little twit? Now get out of here before I use you for target practice.
Tim Drake/Red Robin: [sigh]We're a strange batfamily.
Alan Ritchson: I don't even care! They don't know what they's talkin' 'bout! Next time they hear about me, they-they-they's gonna be like, "We was wrong 'bout Alan". 'Cause, 'cause I's gonna be huge! I-I's gonna be bigger than every one of all y'all! [Looks at a sign for DC's AQUAMAN tryouts] That's the ticket! [goes inside to apply]

I think it would be great if Jose Delgado was made the Batman of Metropolis. I always liked him as Gangbuster.

Admiral_Young · August 12 2010, 04:58 AM

^ I could see that happening.

Love the oval. Hate the raised border around it -- and the idea of "franchising" the character.
An army of loners???

Admiral James Kirk · August 12 2010, 05:23 AM

Not an army. An organization of autonomous like minded individuals.

My favorite parts of that thread are the first two comments:

Daniel said:

If they're bringing him back with that stupid yellow oval I have no problem dropping all the Batman books.

Brian said:

Way to live the stereotype, Daniel.

Admiral_Young · August 12 2010, 06:26 AM

^ Yeah I laughed at that quote too. I don't look at it as Bruce wanting to build an army of Batmen but to ensure that his legacy will continue even beyond himself and his adopted family. The events of RIP, Final Crisis, and Return of Bruce Wayne no doubt have shaken him to his core and probably made him realize that it is time for a change. All of this will be undone after Grant leaves in two years anyways.

I like it. A lot.

Admiral_Young · August 16 2010, 11:31 PM

Here is the first look at Bruce's new costume from the covers of Batman Inc #1 in the November Solicits. I really like it.

I was waiting to see how the costume would look in blue. I like the new costume, but I'm glad Dick is still wearing the old one. At least we'll be able to tell which comics star which Batman.

At the same time, I hope Dick Grayson goes back to being Nightwing sooner instead of later. He worked hard to become his own man and deserves his own identity.

Admiral_Young · August 17 2010, 12:19 AM

Well I think DC is planning to play around with this notion of multiple Batmen for at least until the end of Morrison's run which he said could end in two years but he if is still feeling it he could go for more since he's having a blast with the character. The costume reminds me a little of Gary Frank's Batman Earth One costume with obvious differences but I really like it. Really happy with both Dick and Bruce's costumes Can't wait for post Return of Bruce Wayne.

Nerys Myk · August 17 2010, 12:22 AM

Its amazing how fugly any comic book Batman costume looks when they ditch the trunks.

sojourner · August 17 2010, 01:07 AM

Isn't that one of the costumes used by Rha's Al Ghuls' thugs when he sent them after Bruce at one point? There were much better variations than that. What's with the piping?
