scans_dailyCourtesy of craveonline a preview for Batman and Robin 10
One page under the cut...
The preview doesn't show anything of the setup for Damian apparently deciding that the only way to prove he's the bestest ever Robin is... to beat the crap out of all past holders of the title (And sorry folks, no Steph, which I don't think comes as a surprise to us). Even Tomasi, whose work on Nightwing I loved, hasn't been able to sell me on the Bruce/Damian dynamic (nor has Morrison). Tim and Damian being at odds is to be expected, and Damian and Jason aren't likely to get on following their past meeting against the Flamingo, but I'm not sure I want to see the first extended Dick/Damian scenes not counting the other brief scenes of them (guest starring in Batwing etc) to be them at each others throats. Dick should be special to Damian as the first person who accepted him as he was and didn't try forcing him to change, but has done more to change him than anyone else has managed.
The preview showcases a new villain, who has gathered together a group of bad guys who have all suffered at the hands of Batman whilst in the course of their criminal activities.
So we have what appears to be three people fused into one by some sort of chemical accident. A guy with a batarang stuck through his head (after he picked one up and attempted to throw it back at Batman and forgot what boomerangs actually DO when they miss). Some sort of flamethrower wielding badguy who ended up with a Bat-boot to the face, and a lady who gives new meaning to the term body-piercing
We'll see how it goes I suppose...
