I do kinda like this--Bruce is trying to trust in Hal and is doing something only he can do.

Peeling off his bat-symbol is a little weird, though.

It does make sense to have it peelable just-in-case.

To a certain extent--but you can still see the outline of the bat on his armor.

Mm, true, kinda defeats the purpose unless only viewed from a distance.

And/or the true purpose is to slap the Bat on something else :)

Well...Geoff sure loves the Bruce/Hal dynamic. Would've expected Clark as the first one to know.

Given the circumstances of DARKSEID INVADING EARTH it is quite plausible that even the super paranoid Batman would reveal his ID if it were relevant to saving Earth.

Well I'm baffled, Batman is actually written well here and Hal isn't automatically in the right, which is different for a Geoff Johns piece. :)

This coupled with the generally goodish appearance of Wonder Woman in the last issue seem to making this one of his stronger stories involving those characters, compared to his past efforts.

Automatically in the right when in a situation with Batman then.

Like,

Batman: You killed the Green Lantern Corps and tried to restart the universe, you are a mass murderer and really "faith" is too little to go on to accept you've suddenly reformed.

After GREEN LANTERN: REBIRTH was written, Geoff Johns said he liked Batman and wanted to show that he liked Batman as soon as he could. And it only took 6 years.

Not knowing who Bruce Wayne is, is like not knowing who Warren Buffet or Donald Trump are - it doesn't make you look very worldly.

I think they're playing up the "Hal doesn't spend very much time on Earth" angle of being Green Lantern.

That was my thought too. I'm sure when Bruce said his name he thought Hal would realize he was talking to (to paraphrase Morgan Freeman in The Dark Knight) "one of the richest and most powerful men in the world". Instead Hal draws a blank. Sometimes (increasingly with this reboot) I think Johns is getting tired of Hal - he keeps playing up his tool-ishness (a far cry from Rebirth when Hal was the best thing EVAH).

I just realized that Hal's wearing a cast here. Did Darkseid break his arm?

I want to see a replication of the Hal vs Mongul fight where Hal fought Mongul with Steel's hammer because of his weakness to yellow.

Don't have the scan but yep. Darkseid took Hal's arm and snapped it like a twig.

I don't know. Bruce basically just threw a couple of cliché's at Hal about having to step up. And "we need to stop playing baseball and start playing football"? Keep the mask on next time, Bats, trust me.

It was either that or his "How would you like to come live with me, put on feathered briefs at night and go out looking for burly men to beat up" speech.

Did Bruce just chose to confide in Hal because he was basically being xenophobic towards his other team mates?

I find it weird that everyone here liked this moment because it just shattered completely my suspension of disbelief. Not that the issues that came before did any better.
