There are a number of people who didn’t get what Grant Morrison was doing on his run of Batman. Some hated it, and others loved it. In a new book, Sequart Organization breaks it all down for the lovers, the haters and the indifferent.
In The Anatomy of Zur-en-Arrh: Understanding Grant Morrison’s Batman, author COdy Walker look at how Morrison’s run reinterprets Batman’s long history.
Morrison has redefined and reworked the Caped Crusader from the ground up. He’s also introduced new characters (such as Damian Wayne) and new concepts (such as Batman, Inc.).
The book is 272-pages and is available in both print ($16.99) and in Kindle form ($6.99).

So we can do that? We can write an 274 page essay on why someone made Bruce Wayne a father and sell it for money?
It probably helps if it features an interviews with Morrison and it’s by Cody Walker and Sequart.
Also; Hypercrisis!
“An interview” .. I need to go to bed.
Of course you can! You can do anything!
The book is more than just talking about Damian though. I talk about identity, hyper-sigils, Batman’s history, the game motif, and so much more!
But, yeah, you can write a whole bunch and turn it into a book too. Do it! Add to the conversation!
Link, Stephen, Link.
