COMICS: BATMAN ETERNAL Teaser Drops Intriguing Hints About What's To Come In The Batverse

So is this telling us that Penguin, Prof Pig, and who I can only guess is Harlequin the Joker's daughter are now involved with the Bat family in a constructive way? I hope this isn't what is going on.

Last thing who is armor suit Batman standing next to Batgirl if that character has been introduced?

I hope they because all these recent Nightwing rumors and Nightwing talk have driven me crazy

@batcheeks8 Well they already unmasked Nightwing to the entire world of super villains during the recent event so it wouldn't surprise me that they kill him off.

One thing I am still uncertain about I can't find anything that says if Batman did not adopt Dick in the new 52 continuity. If he did adopt him like in the old continuity then everybody knows who Batman is and everything and everyone associated with Bruce Wayne would be killed or destroyed by his villains to get back at him. No way the villains are stupid enough to not connect Dick Grayson being Nightwing but the man he has partnered with since his teenage years is not his adoptive father.

@batcheeks8
- Batwoman and Maggie (with a wedding ring??)

Nice catch I didn't notice it the first time but unlikely since Dan DiDio seems to be against marriage completely in the new DC universe since even long time married couple Aquaman and Mera are not even married anymore. The only one allowed to be married is Animal Man because how integral his family is to his story. In DiDio's own words

"Heroes shouldn’t have happy personal lives. They are committed to being that person and committed to defending others at the sacrifice of their own personal interests.

That’s very important and something we reinforced. People in the Bat family their personal lives basically suck. Bruce Wayne, Tim Drake, Barbara Gordon and Kathy Kane. It’s wonderful that they try to establish personal lives, but it’s equally important that they set them aside. That is our mandate, that is our edict and that is our stand."

P.S. ya go to the website and read his words I deleted the line for spoilers DiDio seems to give away what happens to Nightwing.

Ahahaha.... yeah Dan we all know you hate Dick Grayson's fictional guts.....

... [frick] off

TheBloodOwl has it.

@BlackJack10

In the same way Damian's death was a good story? lol..

/sigh

The prospect that Dick, if he survives, probably has to sever all ties with the Batfam makes me so sad :(

I wonder how long it'll take before everyone realizes that Batman Eternal is NOT canon.

he's alive, they have previews on the DC Comic website all the way up to i think issue 28 only thing i can think of thats "worse than death" would be him having to stay away from the batfamily for the sake of the familly, maybe killing dick grayson and giving him a new name and hair color making him look like a 2nd person taking up the nightwing mantle idk im spitballing here but hes alive up to nightwing #28

1. Did anyone notice the Fortress of Solitude in the background?
2. Am I missing something, where's Damien Wayne?

^ Damian's dead.

Talon will be nightwing, while dick will be a new hero.

I love that Dan DiDio thinks that superheroes should have not have happy lives that they must sacrifice everything in order to defend innocent people.

"Heroes shouldn’t have happy personal lives. They are committed to being that person and committed to defending others at the sacrifice of their own personal interests"

So basically according to DiDio every hero in DC needs to be Batman or just like him. How absolutely boring and bland the DC universe would be like that.

Stephanie Brown = pukes

I don't see damien anywhere, and still wondering how their gonna fix that screw up that is forever evil revealing grayson's identity. Not to mention them killing damien STILL pisses me off, I liked the kid...he was entertaining and bruce's actual offspring.

well Damian is dead in Earth 1...
