...Any reference to Cass beyond the brief mention of Hong Kong in the preview?

I've not read it, but I'm certain if Grant's using the past 30 years plus of Batman, he's using Cass in this issue too. Certainly he wouldn't confine himself to Silver Age concepts, which while some may remember fondly, had no small amount of sexism and racism.

*cough*

So Knight and Squire want to become Dangermouse and Penfold? (Whose base of operations was, famously, under a postbox on Baker Street.)

Works for me.

They need a mini back. Or an on-going.

REALLY IMPORTANT QUESTION:
Is Nightrunner still on? I mean, does he exist/is mentioned post-New 52?

Nightrunner is featured in this issue. The "French Batman" (Black Glove, I think?) is discussing his retirement and telling Batman about Nightrunner replacing him while they watch from a distance.

I'll check up on it from time to time if they get a better artist.
And yes, needs more Nightrunner.

Yeah, the art is terrible.

I'm really not fond of any of the artists the Morrison chooses to work with. But at least Quitely can draw a clear scene with characters who actually look like they're moving. Irving, not so much. (Although he's got a few good stylistic bits - the outline-less colour-masses of characters in motion are fairly neat.)

I just wish the dialogue wasn't so... On the nose with Morrison at times.

Also, how does 'Doubleface' have unbeatable spacial awareness when his second set of eyes is directly underneath/above the other?

From: [personal profile] jlbarnett
one set looks left, the other looks right? I think being able to do that would increase peripheral vision dramatically.

I think it's just because he gets more data, can judge depth better, etc.. Not wider field of vision, just superior.

Right. I think he carried over his habits from the Great Ten, but the two cultures have rather different styles.

I think it's a sort of homage to Venom. Veiniac was a character Jiro was seen pursuing in the past, who he now seems to have formed an alliance/symbiosis with.
