Why so little love for Azrael?

[ffritts]

I am up for a new Azrael comic any way possible.

I have all 100 issues plus the mini, annuals, marvel xover, and the plus comic of JPV

I got the mini 2 annuals and all 18 issues of lane.

Either one I am happy with.

Why would anyone want to see the fake Azrael when the real Azrael, Jean-Paul Valley, is still such a great character even after all these years?

I would also like someone (hopefully Mark Andreyko) to follow up on that subplot from Manhunter that involved the Order of St. Dumas turning Mark Shaw into the new Azrael.

JPV will need his own Joker... Michael Lane would be PERFECT for it!

thats honestly not a bad idea but it would have to be done to where ML still sees himself as a man of faith and possibly explore ML being Jesus' descendant.

I don't see that working to well. After the Ra's mess.
Lane at this point could easily kill JPV. Not to mention the Crusader.

I had no idea who either Azrael was until Arkham City which forced me to read some back issues.

Agreed. That other Azrael was just a pretender.

That's the same kind of thinking that brought Barbara back as Batgirl, a move, as I recall, you were not in favour of.

LOL! Awesome.
