After the release of Batman #16, Newsarama had a chance to talk with Scott Snyder about that issue, as well as the finale of "Death of the Family" in Batman #17, and what's in store for Batman after this event. Newsarama: Scott, we found out in this issue why the villains were recruited, but heading into issue #17, Batman is invited for dinner and the other Bat-family members are in peril.
