  2. The Death of Batman from Earth II in Adventure Comics was the best of all. Mostly considering the character stayed dead.
    BTW, the "Typeanalyzer" thing is really slowing down your page. Just so you know :)

  3. I thought there'd be more Batman "death" covers, but mostly there's just Robin, that I could find.

    Chris: Thanks. I really haven't noticed anything with the Typeanalyzer, but I took it off anyway.

  4. Cool! I just got in way quicker. Probably it's only an out-of-the-States issue. But still, it will help you with international visitors.

  5. Tony - I was SO planning on doing the same thing on my blog AFTER Batman supposedly "dies"...but you beat me to it. I'm very disappointed that DC has once again chosen the low road in an effort to boost sales.
    My "pull list" gets shorter and shorter each week. Pretty soon I'll be down to just JSA and JLA - kinda like the last time I quit comic altogether (about 30 years ago).

  6. I'm sorry Dougie. :(

    I beat Newsarama to it, too. But they did theirs without pictures.
