Batman: R.I.P. by Grant Morrison

2.0

I.. don't really know what I just read?

This started out like an actual book that made sense. Then, I felt like I turned the page and I couldn't really follow any of what was going on. Suddenly, there's another bat character that Bruce created as a back up identity. Well, alright. Technically Matches Malone was a separate, undercover identity but what makes these stories so confusing is that I'm left wondering: when the hell does Bruce sleep? If he's constantly laying groundwork for these "break in case of emergency" identities. People have to wonder where these guys disappear to for months/years at a time? Right?

Anyway, the only bits I appreciated were the flashbacks through Bruce's time with the robins. Though, once again, another writer forgets Cassandra Cain's existence.

SpoilerBut, yeah... I just didn't enjoy this. And it doesn't have real consequences because everyone just "thinks" Bruce died but he didn't actually die, right?
