"Bruce Wayne realizes that he can't just be the grim avenger he was before," DiDio said. "He wants to be more aggressive in his reach, and realizes the change that Batman as a symbol can effect around the world."

Won't that be a bit confusing? Who knows what kind of mind f@!k Morrison could achieve with two Batmen running around!!

I don't like the idea of two Batmans. I'm not a big fan of people sharing identities.

So Grayson definitely isn't the White Knight. Good thing he isn't about to die. Interesting news.

So is it Batmen or Batmans?
 
A new debate for the ages.

One step closer to BatmanBatmanBatman.

Two Batmans feels like Marvel's current version of having two Captain America's (Steve and Bucky) storyline earlier this year. 
 
     
 
PLOT: 
  
So one iconic hero supposedly "dies". 
 
Then his side-kick decides to take up the hero's mantle.   
 
When hero returns, he decided to fight along side his side-kick who has his mantle, basically making that there will be 2 of the same heroes now. 
 
Hmm... I feel like I have read this before, just like a year ago.

Let the killing (ass kicking) begin. Curious to see how this whole thing is gonna unfold.

Prehaps Bruce might go on to form the Secret Justice league...

" @Baddamdog: They have different costumes and Bruce will only be Batman Inc. and Batman: The Dark Knight so I don't think it will be that confusing.  "

" Won't that be a bit confusing? Who knows what kind of mind f@!k Morrison could achieve with two Batmen running around!! "

"Prehaps Bruce might go on to form the Secret Justice league... "

Really? 
 
its just ridicoulous......whats next the batman corp

Is one Batman Book going to cover one Bruce/Batman and another one the Dick/Batman or will all the batman books cover both?

I too am not so fond of this idea. I kind of want Dick to be Nightwing again. I'll just have to wait to see how it turns out.

Well at least one of the batmen will not have a silly yellow circle around the bat symbol, I wish we would see nightwing again but oh well, Wait a minute does that mean one batman will get Damian and the other batman will get TIM as their sidekick

I have mixed feelings about this one!

What's happening to Tim?

This is exactly what I wanted. This is freaking AWESOME!!!!!!!!

I am not entirely sold on this concept.  Will have to wait and see whether the idea of having two Batmanses is for the best. 

wow

The concept is interesting; there are too many books however.

I can't see what magic words Bruce will say to make Dick remain as Batman. 
 
Dick became Batman in the first place because Gotham NEEDED a Batman. So, what, now that Bruce is back, he's just gonna be all: "Hey Dick, I'm gonna journey around the world and be Batman in exotic locations, you stay here in this crappy city and look after my psychopathic son"? 
 
He's got no reason to be Batman anymore. Bruce is back, the void is filled. Go back to Nightwing.

" @Omega Ray Jay said:

"Prehaps Bruce might go on to form the Secret Justice league... "

   
 
Exactly. 
 
Two Batmen feels like a borrowed idea from two Captain America's. 
 
It doesn't help that both storylines were practically similar with the whole

"Death and Re-birth"

theme.  Now they're going to be 2 of each heroes too. Sheesh...
 
C'mon DC.  "

This is AWESOME! BATMEN and ROBIN a dream come true. Whooo hoo

You've got to be kidding me. Two Batmen? That's so not cool at all!!!! Kill off Dick and Bruce while you're at it Grant. Or maybe just Bruce. The fun has ended..... I'm so sad.

This was the best solution really because there was point in Dick going back to Nightwing after a year.

Not sure what to think. Is it good or is it bad? One thing's for sure, I need to get Batman Inc cos that's the only Bat book with Bruce Wayne in. I don't like the sound of David Finch's Batman series.

"You've got to be kidding me. Two Batmen? That's so not cool at all!!!! Kill off Dick and Bruce while you're at it Grant. Or maybe just Bruce. The fun has ended..... I'm so sad. "

As much as I usually wouldn't go for something like this. I'm interested in the possible situations that could occur.

It won't stick, trust me. It may seem cool at first (maybe even funny), but this will calm down after a while.

i'm not totally lovin' the idea, but I don't dislike it. 
Although like a lot of others I think I'd like Dick to not take the mantle anymore, I mean if you ask me I like him better as an outsider operative, not really a batman sort of character

I don't like this at all. I mean, I like that Dick is filling in Bruce's shoes for the moment, but I think the Batman role should be to one person. Bruce.

There are two Flash...  Why not two batman?

Can't find the video but it reminds me of the Batman episode where Two-Face and the other villains are playing poker.  He tells his theory on Batman,
That Gordon has multiple Batmans, its not just 1 guy, its multiple guys in Bat suits.
 
I like this idea.
I thought Marvel might do something similar too, when Steve came back.  That Iron Man might make an army of Captain Americas, making Captain America a title and a symbol.  And having several guys fill in.  Like when one falls another takes his place.
 
 
I like this Batman idea, Babs is right that this is Bruce's grieving from his parent's death, but now Batman has become a symbol to everyone else.  The rest of the city sees Batman as a symbol and has no clue about Bruce Wayne's grief.  Plus this could be another part of his grieving.  Bruce would use anything he could, I think, to fight his war on crime, including having multiple Batmans.  I think, anyway.

Two Batmen, the Joker might just on 'crazy' over this!

" Two Batmen, the Joker might just on 'crazy' over this! "

" @Nightshade50: Yeah the same thing was said about Dick being Batman and look what happened lol, Dick as Batman is here to stay. I like the idea its like someone said on the DC board its like the Prestige with Christen bale and his twin. It gives off this spooky Omunious feeling to the criminals thinking that their is one batman when their really is two. It also reminds me of the Jamican twins in the movie Marked for death (Four eyes, Two heads lol) lol "

SOOO time drake is odd man out! dam they better use caution or he will go all jason todd on everyone!! 
 
so will Dick still be justice league leader? or will bruce be the JLA batman!

Who knows? Maybe in the future we might have the War of the Batmen like in Witchblade.
