Forgot to mention, GREAT commission. JB and Batman, why won't this happen? Why?

Even the most relentless Byrne Bashers seem to
have a grudging admiration for my Batman. Perhaps
it's because I have never done an ongoing
series with the character. If I did, perhaps the bloom
would go off the rose for Bashers and Boosters
alike.

You want a miniseries, you've got GENERATIONS.

Three times.

His hair and sideburns has often been shown to grow back quickly.

 

Most dramatically in this issue

http://www.milehighcomics.com/cgi-bin/backissue.cgi?action=e nlarge&issue=96477059734%2059

 

where he cuts his hair down and his sideburns off (IIRC he was undercover or something) and as the issue goes on they slowly grow back and at the end of the issue, his hair is back completely.

Why it stops there, not sure.  But I thought it was pretty cool at 12 yrs. old or so.

Why does Wolverine look like Adam Carolla on that cover?

Sure, not everything works. But JB won't be reinventing the wheel on Batman. The firmament for this particular character is born out of Batman's unique perfection, as a concept. Simple, direct, cool (NOT sociopathic), and adaptable. There's Batman.

The rogues' presentation is probably more an issue at this point. The Joker doesn't kill and souffle (sic) someone in a story and the fan base erupts with "foul!"

Liked your Batman in JLA.

Heard rumours of a JLA Classified...

Any truth or Batman in that?

Congratulations on getting such a great piece, Vinny.

I would have picked Batman as the winner, too.

"Oh yeah, what William said about JB's use of Aki's li'l cartoon on the second "version" goes for me to. Not really better by any means, but funnier any day of the week, that's for sure."

Ok, can somebody tell me what this is referring to? I must not be keeping up with the forum as much as I used to!
