The Return of Bruce Wayne - Grant Morrison's new series

Morrison's done more than Batman. It's not fair to judge him on one or two arcs, imo...

I'm really glad to see Bruce on his way back, personally, and i enjoyed Morrison's work leading up to Final Crisis. Can't wait...

F cking! Morrison stealing ideas from Lee Falk's The Phantom and from Wolverine origins.

What part of this is from Wolverine Origins?

Bruce Wayne will be back. What a surprise. 👇

It's sad, the serie with Grayson made the ol' thing more interesting

Origins trace back to time...legacy...all that stuff the character doesn't need because he already evolved...ya know...stuff.

Grant Morrison Presents

Well there's obviously going to be some type of encounter with Vandal Savage. Woohoo. none

i can't to see what is in store for Bruce the rest of the series

I'm just anxious to see how in the hell Bruce is going to use stone age technology to get the DeLorean up to 88mph, so he can get home..?

Don't worry, I'll wait.

"Sleeper," and "Criminal."

That's two.

Grant Morrison does have a genius and has done some classic stories - but sometimes when you're always swinging for the fences you strike out. He doesn't have the sensibilities to do streetwise, criminal & espionage stories. Ed Brubaker does, which is why he's great on Batman & Captain America. Reminds me of Doug Moench in his heyday. He may not the sensibilities for characters like Silver Surfer or Superman, but he's handled well the characters he's chosen.

I'm sorry, but that's kind of a terrible point. He clearly didn't steal anything from Wolverine: Origins.

from the looks of the diffrent costumes i presume that some time hopping will be involved..thats cool with me..i actually have more faith in this than cap's return..Why? from the Moment DS blasted Bruce we saw him in a cave writing on a wall. so we know he was always alive. cap on the other hand was dead as a doornail no fancy cosmic shit..he got "capped" str8 up<------see what i just did there?...we even saw his body disintigrtate in front of some ppl..now i could understand if they had said that the SS serum reformed him or something but to just pluck him out of the time stream, and have him tumble thru his past life so that his memory can get back up to speed in the current timeline is mildy retarded

It's not like someone went back and retconned it though; Brubaker's been Cap since before he was killed, and obviously planned for this to happen. Hints of it were set up, if you wanted to look- particularly the Skull's and Zola's early interactions with Doom.

Also Cap's death predates Batman's. If anyone should be accused of copying anyone it's Morrison copying Brubaker in that respect, however I'm willing to give them both the benefit of the doubt and say it's comics, characters die and come back all the time...

Return of Bruce Wayne covers from issue one to four.

Get this f*** hack out comics books already. (Or at least out of Batman titles)

This sounds like it might actually be better than "Whatever Happened to the Caped Crusader?", I'm psyched.
