Tom King Leaving Batman

https://www.newsarama.com/45284-tom-...ar-report.html

Got to admit, he lost me at his first arc.

85 huh... 15 issues shorter than what Tom King wanted to do. OK, we are all sad about Wally, i believe... but i personally never want to cost anyone their bread money... I never even said take Morrison off the book for Bat Cow... god damn bat cow... and his run was half decent except bat cow and being crazy enough to bring in a damn bat cow... But i never went online and wrote every possible place DC worker might read that fire Morrison... No... I don't want to cost anyone their bread money. So what i say is let Tom King complete his 100 issues run. I like the focus on Selina and Bruce's relationship anyway... And focus on Bane is not bad. You can always retcon, reboot Wally stuff after all...

He's gonna write a 12-issue Batman/Catwoman series instead.

Beginning in January 2020, DC’s ongoing BATMAN comic book, currently shipping twice-monthly, will return to a monthly schedule, allowing DC to incorporate the monthly BATMAN title into the larger DC universe and continuity. BATMAN will ship alongside a new 12-issue BATMAN/CATWOMAN series by Tom King and Clay Mann, while Bat-Family titles DETECTIVE COMICS, CATWOMAN, NIGHTWING, BATGIRL and others will continue into 2020 with no immediate changes to their shipping schedules.

Nice. I'm glad that Tom King will complete his story in some way.

Now, DC should totaly restart Batman from issue 1 after issue 85 of Tom King run and bring in Bendis but if Bendis will come, he should quit at least Superman. When he writes so many titles, they say he's not very good... I only read his Daredevil and some of his Ultimate Spider-Man. DD was extraordinary, Spider was good. His DD Run's my favorite Daredevil run. That's why i want him on Batman eversince.

I’d buy it if Geoff Johns wrote a run. Classic Batman stories, less focus on all 66 members of the Bat family.
Please! I miss being excited about buying a Batman book.

I think Johns would be good but the two books he is writing now are not able to come out monthly. No guarantee that would not happen to Batman
