DC Comics and Batman’s Grave #12 Spoilers and Review follows.

Scorn’s Final Battle With Batman!

Who Lives & Who Dies?

This is the final act of this series with Scorn vs. Batman; it’s a brutal and gritty fight over several pages.

The battle culminates with the Gotham City Police Department…

…entering the scene and…

…Scorn’s response is to commit suicide?!

A badly bruised and tired Batman heads home, but…

…rolls the Batmobile on his property!

He stumbles to his parents’ graves and…

…seemingly dies with a knife in his side through some of his vitals?!

The Pulse:

Great art, but a very dark story. Cool that Scorn is the villain. The book’s the title is a prophecy. So, both main characters die, but GCPD Commissioner James Gordon lives. I expect more work at DC Comics for artist Bryan Hitch, but this may Warren Ellis’ last book for a while. 6 out of 10.
