On the upcoming Batman titles Greg Capullo said, "Joker meets Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The Joker has stolen his face back from the Gotham PD and attached it back on in a makeshift manner" Joker will hunting members of the Bat-family such as Alfred and will crossover in other Batman titles. Also in 2013, The Riddler will receive a new origin and also have his own story arc.


When asked about Stephanie Brown & Cassandra Cain returning, all Dan Didio said was "sure. A lot of old characters will eventually be brought back in but they want to build up the universe. There are currently no plans to bring them back though".


Didio also seemed positive on the thought of a new solo Red Robin series but gave no comment regarding it.

Sentry is unbeatable that's the whole point of the character now.

Unstoppable and a schizo.

A riddler story arc after the Joker arc! Awesome!Lets just hope they did away with the green ? mohawk seen in Batman #1. After the Riddler arc, we Desperatly need a decent Bane story arc! Nothing compares to his Knightfall first appearence, secret six came close though. Bane needs to return as a badass especially after the hit The Dark Knight Rises, many new Bane fans will certainly jump onto that story arc...

That Sentry vs Icon thing was a lame waste of time. Sorry I clicked on it. As for Batman... Looking forward to see what they do with Joker.

I would like a Bane story but at same time I think they should leave it alone. I want Zsasz.

I would really like to see a proper who do it type story. Where can set-up all these characters having a motive to kill for example the Riddler and we follow Batman as he tries to figure out why and how did the crime.

However unlike most stories when we as an audience know who did it, we don't either and can try to figure it out ourselves with hidden clues in the comic panels.

You know I was thinking with Riddler, @BANEofExistence. That the mohawk was just for the prison scene so that you could tell that he was the Riddler. Because, in prison, he isn't gonna have his signature suit and hat. So my theory is that they did the question mark mohawk so that you knew that that character was Riddler. Then when they introduce him in a new story arc (can't wait for that) he will be out of prison, and get his clothes back. I really like him with the suit and hat, I hate it when they feel they have to change characters so much, so I'd be mad if they did the mohawk.
