well, visiting family, I finally got to a real deal comic shop for the first time in a few years... got the 1st 3 parts of Batman & SOn and... I can safely say Batman's kiddie is the biggest wanker on the face of the Earth... I wanna kill that little son of a *****... and even with LoA training, he should never have pwned Tim so easily...
I'm kinda disappointed. I expected a better standard of story telling and not some cheeseball crap from a great writer like Morrison. I really felt like some of it was just thrown together and the plot doesn't flow well at all...

Read Son of the Demon, an 80s comic by Marv Wolfman... I think. I just read it last night and, well, it was OK, but it explains the birth of Damien. Bats never found out he existed til now because the mother, Talia (as in Al Ghul), faked a miscarriage and left the kid at an orphanage. It was never mentioned again or even clearly in continuity, but this arc finally went back and revealed that, ye, it really happened... to some extent or other.

What gets to me about DC making this decision is the stupidity behind it. They named Selina's child after Bruce's mother. Then they mislead their readers into believeing the child belong to Bruce. Rather than to make Selina's child the official offspring of Bruce they opted to bring out this child character into continium and make him the child of Batman. I'm disappointed by this which is why I dropped the Catwoman series. Really, stupid move from DC.
Is the conclusion out yet and was there any imorivement? I don't suppose the ultimate sacrifice they referred to was that little son of a whore dying an agonising death at the hands of a certain spud-eating KMCer was it...?

Yeah... Damien's a little bastard. It was priceless when Batman screamed "PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE!!" right in the kid's f*ckin' face. Damien almost shit his pants.
