    If it's a fill-in isn't that a little crappy considering Winick just started on the book? What 2 or 3 issues in and already he needs a fill-in?

      Ok...over at Superhero Hype they've got the scoop. Then big complaint I'm hearing is that Morrison & Winnick are basicly covering the same ground...which is fine with me, as I'm only buying one Book.

      And Tony Daniel is coming aboard.

        The article i read at either newsarama or Comicbookresources had Daniel writing and drawing the issues. As far as covering the same ground, its morrison's ground to cover since its pretty much his story continued from RIP. you'd think the editors of both books would be aware of the other storylines. I don't really see the necessity of the new book for Morrison, unless DC is going to leave Deective as a non Batman book in the future. I wonder, if the sales continue to be good, will DC revert back to Bruce? Or will Bruce even go back to being the Bat after he gets back from where ever he is.

          I assumed that Batman's abscene from the book would be temporary....if not they really need to reconsider...Batman IS Detective Comics. Same goes for Superman and Action.

                ^^ I don't. it should have just continued on in Batman after the hiatus instead of letting Winnick "write" another book. Will DC even keep the B&R title after Morrison's done with his story? I did enjoy issue one, the intro of new villains instead of retreading Joker, Scarecrow or Penguin was a good move. Really like the preview page ala JSA at the end, too. Wonder if the new Red Hood will be Jason Todd.

                  I wouldn't have had a problem with that, as long as the paired Morrison up with a decent Artist(Benes, Bagley, Daniel, etc...).

                    I'm probably in the distinct minority in that, even though I usually don't like much that Winick writes, for some reason, I enjoy him on Batman (even with the return of Jason Todd). It's a mystery like the Bermuda Triangle.

                    And, Arkham Asylum aside, I've not enjoyed that much of Morrion's work with the character. Morrison works better (for me, anyway) with characters that can handle his "big" ideas. Superman, The Spectre, characters of that nature. I think Batman should be a down and dirty street comic.

                      Depending on who's writing it, I'd keep reading if they kept Dick and Damien, and it was renamed "Nightwing and Robin."

                          Me too. And Bruce's coming back...is just a matter of time.

                              I've got no problem with Batman ending up in all kinds of cosmic wierdness. When the guy can hob knob with demons and hotty fishnet wearing magicians, and be a member of the JLA, he's going to end up involved in crap like that.
