Batman And Robin #1, Good Comic Or Gimmick?

G-Man talks about the first issue of Batman: Reborn.

Note: This is the video that was meant to be posted yesterday but we had some technical difficulties.

Something that I haven't made obvious, I'm a big fan of Batman.  Now we have the "death" of Bruce Wayne.  Is this all a gimmick just to get readers riled up and to launch a new series?  We know (most likely) that Bruce will return someday.  What will this new 'era' bring us?  Is it possible that this will be the new status quo?  Remember, there was quite some time when Dick Grayson was Robin.  Eventually he abandoned that identity.  There's no way he'd go back, right?  So maybe this new Batman will be the Batman from now on?  How does this comic rate?

Even though there's been some talk already, this is pretty much a spoiler-free video, and I'm not just talking about Stephanie Brown.

  


There you go.  That's what I thought.  This is the next chapter.  From the preview at the end, it looks like it's going to be an interesting ride.
