On the one hand, an alternate reality Batman reboot is hardly anything new. I mean, in my life I've seen Batman redefined and restarted and alternate realitied (I'm making it a word) many, MANY times. Heck, even in other media, you've got the continuity of the rocksteady games, the Nolan movies and Brave and the Bold....and that's just in the last 5 years. So the impact of an Earth-One Batman series is pretty blunted, especially as it's written by someone who's already writing 'regular' Batman.

On the other hand, I love Gary Frank and particularly this interpretation of Alfred. This really could be a fresh new approach and I'm eager to see how it looks. While there have been many versions, I think there's always room for new takes on the characters...and this one looks like it might be willing to try some really different stuff with the setup.
