correction, New Earth is Earth-0, as mentioned by Monitor Zillo Valla in Superman Beyond 3-D issue 1.
Well see, there’s the problem, no one read that issue.. :D
The armed Batman screams Vigilante to me.
Bicycle wheel might be a wheelchair wheel, so Batwoman might actually be Barbara Gordon or maybe the woman in the coffin is a dead Oracle? It was stablished way back in Birds of Prey that after she was Brainiac host that her legs were slowly starting to work again.
I just hope armored Batman isn’t another Cyborg Superman type of deal…
P.S.- Where is Huntress and Catwoman? Are the fact they are missing significant?
Good call on the wheelchair Rico. If the Batman #666 story is indeed continuity, we do see Barbara walking around as the new commissioner.
Great recap of issue #6. I am starting to enjoy the series again. It started rough, and I am not sure I like all the tie ins, but I will be happy to see the end.
Can I get a link to the Batman pic that you are talking about at the end of the episode…..?
Thanks guys.
D!
The helmet of the armored batman is reminiscient of Prometheus.
It could be just me, but I have a funny feeling the “two-face” Batman is the Joker. Half of the joker card is in shadow, and the two face batman is blocking the “normal” part of his face. And look at the grin.
I wouldnt be putting any money on it, but since I thought of it, the idea of it just wont go away.
