Scott Snyder recently sat down with Comics Alliance to talk about his upcoming Zero Year story, why he's doing it, and his love for Year One. He also talks about how he pitched it to the DC editors, Damian's death and Grant Morrison. Comics Alliance: When I heard about Zero Year, I was a little apprehensive. It's pretty well-trod ground, but I know you're a guy who really likes Year One. I mean, you're the one who brought James Gordon Jr. back into continuity. Scott Snyder: Right. Year One is literally one of my…

Grant Morrison has been making the rounds recently, talking to IGN, Newsarama, and Comic Book Resources about the events of Batman Incorporated #8, why he decided to kill Damian Wayne and what's next for him after he wraps up his Batman story. IGN Comics: Was it always part of your larger plan on Batman to wind down your run with the death of Damian? Grant Morrison: Yeah, always. I actually have my series pitch from April 13, 2011 and the death of Damian is right there. So even two years…

After a night of venting his frustration on the criminals in Gotham City, Bruce returns to the cave to find a letter that Damian wrote, declaring his intention to help Batman fight against Leviathan and stating his love and pride for being Bruce’s son. The best issues say the most with the least amount of dialogue. So it’s with Batman and Robin #18 that the entire story has nary a word or sound effect lettered into the page, leaving with the reader the sense of grief and loss that…

Editor's Note: The following article is meant to be a take on how the Joker would react to the real world outside of the DC Universe and to current events. The article is also darker because it is in fact coming from the perspective of one of the darkest characters in The Batman Universe. Viewer discretion is advised. Greeting Bat-babies it is your dear old uncle J here. I think Queen said it best when they sang “another one bites the dust. And another…

Scott Snyder recently sat down with MTV Geek to talk about the rumor that Harper Row will be the next Robin following the death of Damian. When asked bluntly by the interviewer if she will be the next Robin, Snyder says that he's not going to give the answer away: "I'm not going to give away what happens…whether she would BE Robin or not." Snyder then goes on to say that Harper is a character in her own right and that she was never designed to be a Robin: "I feel badly that everybody is…
