Bruce, man. You've all ready got Titus. Your son has too many pets: Damian's personal zoo and those hundreds of bats in your cave.

Jesus Bellaire isn't here to save our eyes.

>>88004480

Cute little story. King's dialogue is still strange though.

>>88004504
Because she colored Shalvey's story instead.

>>88004480
The guy at the pound called the dog "she". Then in the last page it's suddenly a male. Did Alfred change the dog?

>all those quizmaster schemes

Thank god. Snyder turned his nose on all those so hard that it gave him whiplash.

>>88004428
That's a pretty shallow ditch.

>>88004465
>those 4th and 5th panels

Now there's the Tom King that's been missing from this run so far.

>>88004465
Calm the fuck down. There is absolutely nothing wrong with images in this particular storytime. Preventing images from being posted stifles discussion.

Yess

wait what they posted the entire King story? Welp it was pretty good.

>>88004480
Did they really show the whole of King's story for the preview?

>>88004480
Hopefully, this annual trun out to be fun.

>>88004618
You post image in the middle of him posting the preview. The guy has the right to get mad.

Hmm. I always assumed that Ace was still in canon, but had died prior too Damian getting Titus.

>>88004413
Nice cover, how can people say that this art is bad

So we've got both Titus and Ace?

>>88004762
By looking at the interior you kek

>>88004777
I was talking about Finch's in general, people always complain about him not for this particular issue

woah this was bad

King King King, just stop.

And isn't picture related supposed to be in the annual?

>>88004763
Looks like King ignored all the rest of the bat pets for this story. Will be interesting if this comes up when Damian shows up or by any other writer

>>88004859
They are Damian's pets, not Batman's. So, it's understandable why would any Batman writer ignore them.

>>88004854
Oh yeah, it was done by Finch and King, right? Maybe it will be at the end?

>>88004904
>why would any Batman writer ignore them.
Are you asking a question? And they may be Damian's but they still live in the same house and Bruce has been shown to take care of Titus (but that was when Damian was dead)

>>88004854
No. It's part of the I Am Bane arc iirc

>>88004945
No way Finch started drawing I am Bane arc that's early. It's supposed to be part of the annual.

>>88004973
We'll find out who is right on Wednesday and I have a good feeling it'll be me. This double shipping is causing the creatives to work well ahead of schedule and Finch is slow, he needs all the time he can get to ship biweekly on time

>>88004973
Batman clearly mentioned the next arc when he tweeted the pic.

>>88005001
So, he started working on September? Isn't this a bit unreasonable to you?

>>88005012
??

>>88005012
He didn't, so we'll have to see on Wednesday.

>>88004933
Maybe he moved them to Teen Titan Tower

>>88004473
>>88004480
Where the fuck is Titus? Unless this is before Titus.

>>88005034
>Coming soon
I think it's the Annual because Bane is coming out next year.

Aren't stories in the Annual supposed to be disconnected from the main canon anyway and be more like "could be fit anywhere" kind of deal?

>>88004443
>a fucking chipmunks reference

MADMAN

>>88005052
Batman is wearing his new costume. So, it's definitely after.

>>88004933
That's not the full sentence and it's obviously statement because I end it with full stop.

Only Tomasi and Gleason cares about Damian's pets. The others don't care nor they will bother themselves to remember them because they aren't important to Batman.

>>88004480
Love it!

>>88005104
>obviously statement because I end it with full stop
That's not obvious. Typos happen. You had worded it as a question, not a statement which is why I asked

>>88005214
>So, it's understandable why would any Batman writer ignore them.
This my full sentence.

You only quote it this way:
>why would any Batman writer ignore them
It's appear as question to you because you didn't quote it right.

>>88005262
You clearly have a poor grasp on the English language. Sorry for assuming otherwise.

>>88005052
TT Tower

>>88005286
>didn't read the post right
>blame it on someone else
The problem wasn't with him, dude.

>>88004854
It will probably be at the end of the Annual.

>>88004417
Finch is soooooo bad

>>88005778
To add insult to injury, he fucking inked that.

>>88004480
What a sad little story. Bruce being so caught up in himself that he can't even show gratitude or even understand the kindnesses around him...

>>88004480
>the gifts are blue, red and orange
Is that what I think it is?

>>88006163
>Blue = Dick
>Red = Jason
>Orange = Damian
Damian = Michaelanglo confirmed.

>>88006199
Tim should be purple.

That is, if he weren't in the interdimensional sex dungeon during Christmas.

>>88006163
>>88006199
So, Damian's present is the smallest? Shame on you Damian!

>>88004443
WOODHOUSE!

>>88004454
So has Alfred just been wearing the same clothes and being mauled in slow mo by a dog for like 4 months?

>>88004443
>Alfred. Alfred. ALFRED!
>Yes Master Bruce.
>Daaaaanger zone!

>>88006199
What about Duke?

I don't know how much more evidence you need that King was never really all that great.

>>88006452
If his story trun out really weak compared to the rest in this annual.

>>88006409
Duke = yellow ranger

Or

Duke = the new purple

>>88006409
>giving presents to the janitor

>>88006163
>Dick's present is the biggest
>Jason’s is medium size
>Damian's is the smallest
I expected Damian's to bring the biggest because he's such a show off and Jason's is the smallest because he such a troll.

>>88006670
>he such a troll
Nah, Jason is sentimental guy and will be probably bring the most heartfelt present.

>>88006163
>>88006289
>>88006592
>>88006670
>>88006713
What about Bruce though? What his presents to Jason, Dick, Duke and Damian will be like?

>>88006764
Money?

>>88006785
Rubber bullets for Jason.
Superman plush for Damian.
A new mop for Duke.
Dead bats for Dick.

>>88006764
This is his gift to them >>88004854

>>88006923
>Fast food
Very generous

>>88006923
Taking them to cheap restaurant? The heck, Bruce?

>>88004854
Finch art doesn't look bad here.

>>88004417
AAAAAAAAAAAAAH HELP ME CLARK IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN

>>88006764
>J & 3D

>>88007734
>Before: JT & 2D
>Now: J & 3D
So, Duke actually upgraded the Robins.

>>88004417
How the fuck dog even did that? And that's not Bruce's blood, right? His cowl must be pretty durable.
