Batman: Battle For The Cowl

The Batman is Dead! Long Live The Batman!

The 3rd issue that wraps up the whole mini series came out last week. Ultimately reveals who picks up the mantle of the Bat, after Batman "died" during Final Crisis.

Hold it, whoah! How did Batman die? He basically had a mexican stand off with Darkseid. Threathening Darkseid with a New God killing bullet, while Darkseid shoots his Omega Sanction beams at him.

After the word got out that Batman is missing or dead, the criminals all came out of the wood work to wreak havoc. The Bat Family enlisted all their related allies to help clean up Gotham.

At the same time, Jason Todd dons the cowl with guns ablazing, klling all criminals, and everyone in his way. It's up to the Bat Family - Nightwing, Robin, Damian to stop him!

Since, anyone who has been following DC comics can easily predict how it would end.... Yeap, Jason is stopped and presume dead. Dick Grayson (Nightwing) becomes Batman.

It's a no brainer. Who would be more suitable to (temporary) be the Batman other than the first son of the Bat?

Story is pretty much just filler. We all know how it's going to end. But it's fast pace enough to be entertaining. At least it's only 3 issues and not being pretentious and dragged up to 6 issues or longer.

Man, it's nice to see the yellow oval Bat symbol costume again. Even for just a few pages of a short time.
