waiting for OP to deliver
>>87617027
And deliver I shall.
As much as I hate the trope of "genius children", I loved this interaction between Damien and the board members.
>>87617343
I see we've entered the blue hair period of this run

>>87617389A rich oil sheikh was visiting the White House to discuss the oil trade with political bigwigs. His personal servant was attending to the sheikh's every need, as was customary and expected. The sheikh, never having tasted salted peanuts before, took an instant liking to them, and began munching them like you wouldn't believe. Naturally, the salt made the sheikh thirsty, and he called to his servant to get him some water. His servant left the room and came back with a glass of nice, cold water. Munching some more on the peanuts, the sheikh got thirsty again, and called to his servant to get him another glass of water. The servant immediately complied with his master's wishes, and returned in a jiffy with another glass of water. Really taken by the peanuts, the sheikh virtually stuffed himself on them, and got a healthy thirst to match. He called to his servant to get him some more water, and off the servant went. This time, he came back empty-handed. The servant apologized profusely, and begged his master's forgiveness. Furious, the sheikh yelled and screamed at his servant, 'You son of a flea-infested camel, why can't you bring me my water?!?' 'But Master', begged the servant, 'I cannot bring you your water because a white man sits on the well...'

>>87617389Two boys were playing football in a Dallas area park when one is attacked by a Rottweiler. Thinking quickly, the other boy rips off a plank of the nearby fence, wedges it down the dog's collar and twists, breaking the dog's neck. A reporter who was strolling by sees the incident, and rushes over to interview the boy.
"Cowboys Fan Saves Friend From Vicious Animal," she starts writing in her notebook.
"But I'm not a Cowboys fan," the boy replies.
"Redskins Fan Rescues Friend From Horrific Attack," the reporter starts again.
"I'm not a Redskins fan either," the boy says. "I'm a Cardinals fan."
The reporter writes on a new sheet in her notebook: "Redneck Bastard Kills Family Pet."

>second panel
Well she was on the money there
Good ol Slade. Glad to see he still holds a grudge against former Teen Titans. I'm not 100% on his personal relationship with Dick though.
Why would they build that feature in there?
>>87618385
that's the side effects Science Guy mentioned
Bat-Logo saves the day again. Glad to see that's a recurring theme in Bat media, the emblem is actually the strongest part of the armor so he's hoping they aim for it.
Bat Shock Gloves. More common of an accessory than people realize.
>>87618465
>There's something funny about him
hohohohohohoho
Damn, this is a dick move.And the weirdest part is, I can't see the current Orlando/Seely/King Nightwing doing anything like this which implies one thing. Dick may not have realized it, but he became much more of a hard ass while he was wearing the cowl. An unintended side-effect of having to be Batman. Then again, I could just be reading into things.
I was personally holding out for Bruce Wayne, but this was a pleasant surprise that I enjoyed immensely more.
>>87618630
lost my shit on this page turn
>>87618630
This ark was really cool
>>87618630
This was a fucking great twist.
OP, are you ok?
>>87618630
Did these two have a specific history between them?Of all the batfam, I think Joker has the least significance to Dick, does he not? The only possible others are Tim and Damian, but I can at least think of some memorable one-on-one moments between them. Bruce, Jason, Babs, Alfred, even that faggot Duke has more reason to hate Joker.
>>87618744
getting shot by the Joker led to Dick becoming Nightwing
>>87618744
Nothing extra special if you don't mind all the attempts on his life during his crime fighting career. The atrocities The Joker has commited that Dick has seen more than anyone but Bruce, etc.
Great callback.
>>87619266
YES THAT'S RIGHT
BATMAN KILLED DARKSEID WITH LITERALLY EVERY BULLET THAT HAS EVER EXISTED INCLUDING THE BULLET THAT KILLED HIS PARENTS
>>87619284
So he shot him with the distilled concept of bullet? The idea of a piece of shrapnel traveling through the air tearing apart whatever is in its path?
And thus begins Bruce's long and arduous journey back home.
>>87619412
you know people say that Morrison changed his ending because he was upset New 52 fucked his plans, but he was seeding the never-ending aspect of the ending from the beginning
Stupid sexy Bruce
>>87619422
we better not be doing Return of Bruce Wayne before Batman and Robin Must Die
>>87619432
aaaaaaaaaand we are
>>87619702
>>87619711
bitch what about this creature says "horse" to you
>>87619412
>this whole issue
Morrison isn't human.
There is no one else on his level in cape comics.
>>87619765
time for shit to get weird
>>87619946
BATPIRATEthat we really only got a cover of
>>87619946
I don't think the artist was told that Vandal Savage was in every issue here, so he looks pretty different as they go.
>>87619995
>Yanick Paquette
>no women in this issue
it ain't fair
>>87620049
wait never mindEarth One teaser
>>87617005
is Morrison the biggest hack in comics?
And thus concludes the fifth Bat thread. Going to get some sleep and pick up sometime tomorrow. Hope you all have enjoyed this as much as I have. Keep the thread alive if you can. Have a great night guys.

>wounded by the hunter
And there are still some people that don't realise that Batman = Orion
>>87617491
That moment you realize Damien actually likes being Robin to Grayson's Batman.
>>87617695
>milady
>>87618530
People forget Dick & Bruce are more alike then either of them think. His darkness isn't as dark as Bruce's but it is there.
Right, haven't read this run since Batman and Robin was coming out, whatever happened to the Damian clones Talia was keeping while she revealed them as he was having surgery?
Also who was the identity of the Anti-Christ Batman in #666, was it a Damian clone?
Does somebody have screenshot from some thread where anon talking about Morrison's Batman who become God of Darkness himself? That Bruce convinced people that he mastered shadows so people woun't be afriad of them anymore? By killing Darkseid he took his title and made darkness his realm or something like that?
>>87622981
They don't come back for a while, but one of them eventually kills Damian, and the rest are all failures who now live on an island somewhere.
>>87623005
Darkseid is the god of order, not darkness.
Bump for new life
>>87622299
Definitely took my by surprise. By the time I realized what had happened Damien was already DIck's little brother in spirit.
>>87619319
It's a bullet from that archetypal plane. It is the God of Bullets. It is point and shoot, personified.
>>87620215
Why is this art so bad
>>87623005
Batman is Orion, not Darkseid
What comic would you guys want me to storytime after I'm done with this?
>>87625776
Incredible Hercules
Dickbat is best Bat
>>87625648
He's both. Just like Turpin says Darkseid reminds him of his father before being possessed. Bruce's entire life has been designed for him to be the vessel for Darkseid's return. It didn't work, because he mantled Orion instead.
fuckin amazing

New thread is here.

Be a pal and make sure it doesn't die before I get home.

> When they put Thatch to the gallows
But that's not how Blackbeard died.
>>87618530
I don't know Modern Nightwing might do it to someone he had a grudge against.
>>87619927
>>87619921
This sequence gave me chills.
>>87619254
A bullring made from the concept of a bullet
>>87619358
Whatever happened to the caped Crusader?
>>87619429
What were his plans?
And what part of New 52 fucked them?
>>87628258
Isn't that similar to how Orion refused to take up the mantle of his father, Darkseid?
>>87617665
Sexton is great
