Sweet

the last page was bananas 
it was a really good issue, art aside

The last page definitely was a big-time moment. Who Sexton turned out to be was always my guess, but it was still a pretty cool moment. I can't wait to see what happens next. 
 
In general, last week was pretty good for the Bat-family.

This issue was fantastic, last page caught me off guard!
 
hated the art.

You know what, babs... I think I might go into a comic shop and look at the last page just to piss me off. 
lol you know im joking. i would never do that. =P

This was an awesome issue, and the last page was a surprise for me! I need a little help though...
 
I am very new to the DCU (within a year kind of new). I'm trying to get caught up as best I can, but there is obviously a lot of history! So I read the Batman R.I.P hardcover to try and get the death of Bruce story, but I felt like that book didn't tell everything (it made it look like he died in a helicopter explosion?). Digging on the Vine here lead me to the Final Crisis hardcover where Bruce gets hit with the omega beams, causing this lost in time story. I guess my question is, what really happened? How do the Batman R.I.P and Final Crisis stories fit together? Or do they at all?

I was about to drop this book until that last page hooked me right back in!

Dick is about ta give someone an @$$ whoopin in the next issue

It is out already? I need to pick up this issue. Got to find out who Oberon is, Maybe he is Bruce Wayne. 

 I think Gman payed to much to the quakes in No Man's Land when it will likely be ignored. 
 
The reveal makes absolute perfect sense in RIP that character who Oberon is hated members of the Black Glove and said that he would not serve them so a vendetta was started. Then we see Oberon travel the world hunting the Domino Killer who was killing The Black Glove the reveal is that he was not hunting the killer, he was the killer. 
 
Return of Bruce Wayne on sale this week!

Looking at Dick's chin on the cover. He looks like he's sixty.
 
The identity of Oberon SERIOUSLY makes me question Dick's ability to be Batman. As far as detective abilities go.
 
@mrduckluck:
That was kind of my thoughts as well. Dick and Damian certainly didn't help matters if he didn't.

After watching this review I think I know what G-Man means about the glasses making sense.

totally agree about the leg thing on the cover

That was Talia? What the hell!

Can someone please tell me who oberon is and what talia is up to? I stopped following bats when dick became batman...

I've not been following this, but was pulled in when someone edited the Oberon Sexton page with the major reveal at the end...  Not the first time that moderating pages has accidentally spoiled something for me.  But as I'm not a Batman & Robin fan then I'm not that bothered  :p 
 
I have a feeling that the 'name' and look of the character will be used again in future, much like how the name Red Hood or Red Robin has been used by different people. 
 
For the time being I think we should keep the Oberon Sexton page, but it might have to be deleted in future as a 'dupe'...

I had many problems with this issue

And Morrison continues to ruin Batman for me :(

I was completely shocked when I figured out the true identity of Oberon Sexton the Gravedigger and I lost all respect for Talia when I figured out what she was doing.  

Its kind of funny. Last Batman and Robin I think i said the Oberon Sexton reminded me of the Red Hood (the original). And in this issue, it ends up being the same person.

another great issue! but i agree with you Babs, Talia Al Ghul was drawn SO SO badly.  it wasn't even Talia in my mind. Bruce Wayne would never tap that.
 
Though the thing with the hallucination confused me, because i don't remember that happening.

i dont like peeking through comics im going to buy. i would rather be surprised all the way through. =]

 I've been following Batman and ALL bat books ( except Azrael) for like 10 years and i am loving this stuff  100% 
 
to all those who don't know and have been enjoying Grants run I've been checking out this comic blog ( not mine ) it really goes into detail about well every detail that you may of missed while reading

Aaaahhh It isn't fair!, i forgot to pick this issue up! XP 
Have to wait till thursday to get this now! lol

G-Man, were you really surprised at the reveal of Sexton? For me, his true name pretty much fell to two characters and he was one of them. It made perfect sense concerning his history with the Black Glove, his familiarity with Batman, and seems to be a homage to another famous Batman story (in another universe).

All I can say is that the big reveal makes me so happy.  *sniffs with tears of joy.*
 

Great issue! Great series!

i have been wiating for this character 2 return and now he is finally back success!

yo batman 698 mr.j makes a apperance an well he is a man of many faces lol

I hate the way Andy Clarke draws Talia, she looks so UGLY. But, I'm not letting Frank Quitely off the hook either; what in the world is going on with Dick's jaw on the cover??

Ti be honest, I never guessed the identity of Oberon Sexton.
