DC reducing Batman's uniqueness

As I figured when I found the first official news, DC's next missteps with the Masked Manhunter are going to be sillier than thought. The Batman Inc. title is going to depict Bruce Wayne recruiting various Batmen the world over, instead of recruiting crimefighters with distinctions, as the Outsiders had when he formed them in 1983.

Once again, DC does little more than to milk a once-impressive hero dry by reducing his uniqueness with a mirror of their own problems: too much commercialization, exactly what's hurt comics this century.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
