One of my favourite stories about this time, and I talk about it a lot on comicvine, is entitled "I Hate It When He Does That" and it was in Legends of the Dark Knight #38.

Only four of the points made make any sense, and from those four, only two of them are about Affleck.

When an article is this one sided it immediately makes me skeptical. It'd would have been more compelling if it was organized in a point/ counter point argument. After offering a reason why it will suck, propose a reason why it might be good.

Horrible title, but I get it. Absolutely no mistaking what this movie is, or what it's about.

Good question. He is so popular that even some of Batman's lesser known stories are "famous", especially among most of the peeps reading these forums.

One of my favourite runs is Rucka's run on Detective starting with #742. It's right after No Man's Land and the book was going in a new art direction. It used a very limited pallet, almost monochromatic, which really complimented Rucka's gritty detective stories. Most of the story arcs included classic rouges like Ra's al Ghul, Two-face, Poison Ivy, and Mad Hatter. These books feature back-up stories including a Slam Bradley story by Brubaker and Cooke entitled "The a Trail of the Catwoman", which leads into the amazing series: Catwoman (Volume 3).

Mr. al Ghul, the History teacher.

I dig the character write-ups.

@rustyroy: extremely high-tech amour makes sense in a video game. Gamers, my self included, want epic boss battles against huge and powerful foes, which is exactly what rocksteady gives us. Also, it's not uncommon to have a huge combo interrupted by some thug unloading a machine on you. To go toe-to-toe against huge, super-powered rouges, and the beat-'em-up style part of the game, it makes sense to have high-tech armour. I hope they don't add any crazy abilities to the suit. Super-protection I'm down with, but I don't want high-tech "powers".

However, in other, less interactive, forms of story telling, writers can come up with endless strategies as to how Batman can overcome the biggest of challenges with willpower and intelligence. This is one of the things I find most interesting about Batman. His gadgets and tech are best used for evidence collecting and mobility. I dislike it when writers rely too heavily on the tech as the solution. If I wanted to read about how a guy used tech to defeat an enemy, there's other books.

@rustyroy: thanks.

His new suit looks crazy, in particular The animation on the chest piece. It looks cool but I always preferred the simpler suits. I'll wait and see how the new suit is introduced and if it effects game play before I pass judgment.

@rustyroy: a new character? Interesting.

I agree with you, I would've rather seen them do 3-5 issue arcs with some classic rouges.

@rustyroy: do you know who yet?
