BAtman and Robin #16 (SPOILERS)

Bruce Wayne is back. That alone is worth an entire issue but jeez Grant Morrison really packed it all in to this one. You have Batman and Batman and Robin Fighting the mad clone? or something of Thomas Wayne a creature that looks like him but is purely evil. Batman (Dick Grayson) has a bullet hole in his head thats killing him yet somehow manages to get Robin to an atomic bomb thats dropping on Gotham and he defuses it. Pyg who has turned Gothamites into frantic junkies gets his comeuppance as he is ripped apart in a frantic search for more of the drug he poisoned them with. The Black Glove attempts to trap Bruce in his own cave (like that will work) and gets the shit kicked out of him by the joker. If thats not enough the issue ends with a bang Bruce Wayne admits he has been funding Batman for years and is no going to incorporate the Batman ideal worldwide. Sort of a security guard thing I guess? I dunno I'm gonna have to RAFO. This issue gets to big thumbs up and it is not just for the story. The art was so good and it looks like all the artist s on Morrisons run came back fora page or two. Although quietly just did his usual cover. If you haven't read Morrisons Batman and Robin SHAME ON YOU! Go Go now to your local comic shop and buy it. If you have then I am sure that you are as bummed as I am that he is ending the book here.
