Is the Death in Batman inc #8 more important?

[Real Elijah Snow]

Is it more important than your standard Superman/spidey/Batman death? The reason i ask, is that it seems like major characters return pretty quickly after the mild inconvenience that death has become, but it seems like 2nd/3rd tier characters have a habit of staying dead longer. Since Jason Todd came back it seems like even a dead robin can return, but maybe this little twerp stays dead for a couple of decades. Saying the character won't return is kind of silly at this point because he will at some point, but a character like this could be out for a longer amount of time compared to a flagship character especially with another Robin waiting in the wings. Thoughts?

wait- I thought they already killed Robin. There was like a phone number to call and vote him dead... or something. You mean he's back again, and they killed him... again?

 

damn, being Robin is a mess job.

his mother (and grandfather) uses a lazarus pit on the regular. It is apart of Damian's family tree. He won't stay dead long.

S.O.P, nothing new imo

It's true. It's like being the drummer in Spinal Tap!

Who's his mother? I thought it was Catwoman

[Wushugushu]

Talia

[WebSlinger]

It will be hot for this week anyways

 

[SuperBird]

I think it's Talia from a one night stand in an 80s graphic novel or something. Wait, how is Batman running around anyway? I though he was paralyzed or lost in time or...

[Real Elijah Snow]

I know he's coming back. Everyone comes back. Even uncle ben has shown up in ghost form. No one stays dead. I think we should start a L.O.D chart. (length of death) to see how long someone stays out. Isn't Jean Grey still dead? That has to be the current record for a major character.

My thought as well.

The last few pages of 8 and most of the series has been 'choppy'. It's almost as if there are panels missing. While I really hope D. comes back, I can't help but wonder if the Batman & Robin tittle is doomed.

I was wondering the same thing...Batman seemed to have teleported from one scene to the next.

Honestly I had no idea what the hell this title was about in the first place..

 

Does Grant Morrison even know what the new 52 is?

[dupont2005]

Deaths quit mattering in super hero comics when Superman 75 came out.

[zekebarrett]

Yeah don't all comic book heroes have a healing factor or alternate universe or something?!

I could never understand the hype/fanfare around Morrison from the beginning. His more recent work at DC over the past few years has been trash IMHO.

[zekebarrett]

The real question should be what book right now is being overlooked due to the Batman Inc hype?

[Real Elijah Snow]

Guardians of the Galaxy was pretty good.

[Webhead1981]

I give it 6 months.
