Batman
I saw this and was disgusted.
Tom King's run on Batman will go down in history as one of the worst runs of the character. No character acts like they should
alfred is dead his child is kidnapped:
and Batman-pussy take a vacation ?

Batcat just annoys me now bc of how Bruce is written like he only gives a shit about her and his kids just don't matter
I wouldn't be surprised if this was all being intentionally written bad just to sour the entire relationship with fans so King or someone else in his social circle of writers could start pushing their Bat-pairing. The Batman/Selina relationship can work, even a marriage, but for fuck sake Tom has went out of his way to make fans hate it.
>The Batman/Selina relationship can work, even a marriage
No it can't. King has written it horribly but it's horrible in concept too.
At least art is good
Me*having flashbacks from Supersosn with old Damian telling Damian that Selina&Bruce left and nevere came back ,
Bruce neglecting his duties to Gotham and more inportantly, his family and children lately in this run.
Yeah, it can. Look the cat and mouse thing works for a bit, but it also gets old fast. Selina Kyle is probably one of the rare women Bruce has met that can put up with his autism, and love both sides of him.
You're dumb.
>OP is offended at a woman in a swimsuit
Oh, you're one of those...
god i wish catwoman would sit on my face
Also do you think Batman trims his mustache into a bat shape to make it a Batstache?
Tom King is cancer, not Catwoman. Christ if we wrote off every character that acted stupid because of a shit writer we'd have none left
>Oh, you're one of those...
Tom she is not your Mom...
Batman isn't even a character in the run. He is a polt devise that King uses to underline what a strong, independent and woman Catwoman is.
Kek. He looks like Henry Caville with a moustache
Catwoman has had one comic where she wasn't dumb, and even in that one she wasn't a good fit with Batman. She's a limited character that they keep trying to force with him like a child with autism smashing action figures together.
No she is Cancer.
pure Batcat king shite
no wonder it's getting rekt by Hulk on the regular
Between him and Joelle Jones, Selina as a characters is beyond garbage now.
You haven't read much
Yea Forums's never ending hateboner for anyone currently writing Batman never ceases to amaze me. I bet people in this thread think Synder's run is now good in retrospect
Remember when Catwoman had amazing books?
King has legitimately neutered Bruce Wayne as a character though.
I remember her having decent books. Amazing is a huge exaggeration.
The last good one was when she was a bisexual mob boss and had an Asian girlfriend being the new Catwoman. But nobody bought it... including me.
>"bat..."
>"cat..."
10/10 writing right there lads. Don't know what you're all complaining about.
No? Don't be that much of a contrarian fuck, user. You think I LIKE hating books and writers? No, I don't. I want shit that I feel is worth the investment, and I will fucking call out bullshit when I see it. I haven't bought Batman books in years
I wonder if this run ends with Bruce still on vacation.
Dark End of the Street was one of my first trades and wanting to read what came after was what got me collecting floppies. Always been annoyed at how little care has been given to Selina over the past 15 some years, but this King gobshite has really taken things to another level with his """"run""""".
Sorry kid, you're father is too busy flirting with his girlfriend.
But hey, I'm sure he'll cry over your dead body once King needs another shock value moment to improve sales.
I'm not a faggot, but folks like Cavill and Brad Pitt make me laugh and giggle when they look at the camera/you/me. What does this mean?!
Hated just about everything else in the issue - the death is entirely unearned (I can't think of the last time King used that character in any significant capacity) and the scenes with Bruce and Selina are as uninteresting as they are poorly written.
At this point I'm convinced that King's Batman has been Thomas Elliot this whole time because he talks and acts entirely different from the Bruce Wayne we've followed for 80 years.
not amazing but at least it was sexy in the beginning and had a few fun moments
Selina is garbage and Batman is pussy.
You literally fell for the meme you dumb fuck
I do so hate how Bruce is basically suicidal. Oh wait, I forgot! King writes Batman like a suicidal man-child!
God, I hate this book.
>closest thing you have to a father ever since your actual father died just got murdered
>biological son is now being held hostage
>adopted son is going through a midlife crisis and is mentally fucked up
>goes on a fun little beach date with his gf who ditched him at the altar like a month or two ago
I know Bruce isn't right in the head but wew.
I hope Catwoman dies.
So instead of them talking about their problems those two just go back together. What was the point of this again?
His writing is fucking dog shit. His character is nonsense. It's just bad.
I wish I fucking knew. He just accepts her back into his life after he spent how many issues just being an emotional wreck over what she did to him and she's acting like his cutesy gf again despite her being all broken up about what she did too. I'm guessing they're saving the conversation for their upcoming Bat/Cat series but it's still so jarring.
The big problem with King's Batman is characterization.really miss the good ol Bruce Wayne/ Batman and how he just did everything and anything for peopl, believed in justice, believed in second chances, cared about his friends and kid and I can go on
"Bat" has "Cat" now! He's "happy". Why would he care about Gotham or his family or being Batman anymore
It's sad that Robin in one issue is written better and performs better than Batman most of this run and why is selina having to hold Bruce's hand.
*Gotham burns*
*City under totalitarian regime*
*Father figure dead*
13 year old son is held hostage by his insane grandfather from another timeline and Bane*
"I'll have a ginger ale please"
Still a better father than Bendis’s Clark.
I haven't read much Superman since Bendis took over, but Bruce and Clark certainly aren't going to win father of the year awards anytime soon.
I would say it means you're probably bi, but even I know that's a lie. I can't speak for Brad, but Henry is just that absurdly good looking and likable.
Did you see/read where Tom King was sitting next to Frank Miller at a conference and King said that Batman hates being Batman and Miller immediately called him out on that and King couldn't even respond?
The dude just does not get the characters that he's writing.
Sadly modern writers don't care about Bruce Wayne and fell for "its all an act" bullshit
Not really. Bruce is doing an exceptionally bad job right now.
batcat is a tumor.
I can't even begin to understand why people still buy these corporate-owned comic series.
For fuck's sake, the biggest red flag possible came 12 fucking years, when DC tried to do assembly-line writing with Countdown.
is bruce even aware at the shitstorm happening in gotham?
Idk, if it wasn’t for Clark’s dumbassery, Jon wouldn’t have been trapped in a volcano for 7 years. Say what you will about King’s Batman. But he never blindly trusted Thomas the way Clark did with Jor-El.
link?
There is no link because it didn't happen.
Not that user but I definitely saw something of that nature posted here before on YouTube. I say this as an eye witness that it exists.
That was one mistake with big repercussions, but I don't remember him screwing up as a father after that.
Bruce keeps messing up big time and doesn't seem to care.
He is aware that Bane and Thomas have taken over, that should be enough motivation to get over there as soon as possible.
on youtube just search a comic con i think 2016 or 2017
Who cares? It's not like anyone reads comics anymore.
If he is, and ain't doing anything, he is out of character.
If he doesn't, that's also completely out of character.
I bit my tongue when they screwed over Morrison's Batman inc run due to the new 52.
However this is the final straw. Unlike most of you I admired Tom Kings run for trying something new. It really clicked with me.
Seeing what has happened now I can no longer abide by DC ruining his run so close to the end.
Even if you hate Tom King, I'm sure you could all agree that he deserves to finish what he started.
I've been a DIEHARD DC fan since the 80s. I have bough everything from them and supported them 100%. I have stood thick and thin at all times.
HOWEVER, today I can not stand for what they have done to Tom King.
THIS IS MY VERSION OF SPIDERMAN ONE MORE DAY.
I will never buy another DC comic again.
EVER.
AGAIN.
I hope all you hater cunts are proud of your self.
I hope Didio fucks you and Bendis ruins Batman forever.
Wait...Alfred is dead dead or buy-bait gonna ressurect dead?
Scott Snyder why are you on Yea Forums?
Which issue is this?
A) Does he know that?
B) Has he actually recovered from getting beat up by his dad enough to actually do anything?
C) Context, what's that?
Nope. You just hate it because it's not BatGod
Oh, we're now thinking (read: pretending) Miller's Batman is the definitive version, are we? You do realize that includes All-Star Goddamn Batman, right? And TDKSA? And Holy Terror. Since it's all the same character in Miller's mind.
>A) Does he know that?
>B)Yup
Yeah, because there's nothing between being a depressed cuck or a 'god'.
This whole arc is King's middle-life crisis projected onto Batman, and the result is just as fucking awful as you'd expect.
>Kings Batman is pussy.
He knows Gotham is in danger.
The problem isn't him not immediatly rushing into Gotham, the problem is that he seems to go on vacation, sitting in a cafe in Paris, going on walks, relaxing at the beach with Selina, instead of calling the members of the batfamily and working to get Gotham back as soon as possible. Even if he needs time to recover, there are still better things to be done than whatever he is doing.
t is not like he couldn't contact the rest of the family.
It would probably even the most logical thing to do, and then to regroup with the whole family.
He's recuperating. He was almost beaten to death by nobodies couple of issues ago.
I know. This is still not the best way to use his time.
Hey wait a minute!
BTAS, Batman Returns, and Bru's Catwoman run made me like that pairing but King's run absolutely killed Batcat for me.
I've seen this already three times, but for some reason it always flies under the radar as copypasta. Maybe because y'all actually believe it?
Nothing wrong with that, just saying... This is a tad cringe-worthy.
Rest is essential part of recovery.
He still has his mind doesn't he? Get in contact with the rest of the bats and make preparations, make a plan to get your son back and get him out of there with the help of the others.
