I personally didn’t care if it was Bruce or not, I’d like to think it was him as much as I’d like to think it was Damian the 3rd, the fact he’s Batman and he’s still being awesome 100 years later was enough for me.

but yeah, top 10 easy.

“Given the hints from the comic, I myself like to figure that he is Bruce Grayson, descendant of Dick. Especially when you look at what he says when the telepath tries to identify him.”

I agree with edc. I didn’t see the Batman of the story as being THE Bruce Wayne Batman. But I think it’s left unsaid who he truly is just to give us that idea that maybe somehow it is, to put us in the same group as everyone in that comic who isn’t in his inner circle.

Given the hints from the comic, I myself like to figure that he is Bruce Grayson, descendant of Dick. Especially when you look at what he says when the telepath tries to identify him.

Actually the mask was modeled after a well made luchador wrestler’s mask and the boots were modeled after paratrooper boots. Pope actually goes out of his way to state how much he hates to see the “bootie” type of shoe/boot on heroes, and so he made sure to do that differently for his Batman project.

Also, I’d be willing to bet a tidy sum that Pope has never seen Batman Beyond. Yindel is from DKR.

I totally agree with David regarding the definite position of this book firmly in the top ten of Batman stories.

Lastly, DK2 is amazing and yet I can totally see why Esther doesn’t like it.
