Is Alfred Pennyworth Really Dead?

Plus Flashpoint Batman Has Turned The Batman Family and Catwoman! Can Batman Still Win?

Batman Bruce Wayne finally learns that the man he’s seen as father is dead.

Killed by Bane through machinations of an alternate timeline / hypertime Flashpoint Batman Thomas Wayne; a father of a Bruce Wayne.

Batman is in pain emotionally and physically…

…is in a foul mood.

A seemingly mind-controlled Catwoman beckons Batman…

…who pass the mind-controlled Batman Family to…

…confront the Flashpoint Batman and his allies the Psycho Pirate and Ventriloquist.

Despite Flashpoint Batman having orchestrated Pennyworth’s death and capturing all of the Batman Family, minus Nightwing, Batman won’t go down without a fight.

Next up is Batman #84.

The Pulse:

An emotional issue with appropriately suited art. A mostly reflective issue that ends in a bang. Entertaining and did I say emotional already? 9 out of 10.
