    I still question, that besides the change in who is under the costume, how is Flashpoint Batman different than regular DCU Batman ?

    I'm excited to read about Traci 13, Frankenstein and the Creatures of the Unknown, and that huge hairy psychopath Grodd.

    And he doesn't care about the rest of the world, just Gotham. His MO is different, as he sets up Casinos to fund his war on crime and isn't as much of a pure detective as Bruce is, getting leads more from intimidation and interrogation than actually figuring things out.

    I got up this morning to discover my email was inundated by reported posts. I then spent over an hour deleting flame wars, insults, claims other posters were rascist and general unpleasantness. Something I have no wish to repeat.

    If you want to discuss the map, the interviews and the storylines, go right ahead. If you want want to accuse DC of racism, fling insults at DCand generally froth at the mouth, please take it elsewhere.

    Thank you.

    Funny, after the huge letdown of Brightest Day, that pretty much sums up my feelings for this event.

    I'll respond to that with a quote. When faced with imminent death, the Neutral Ambassador was heard to utter:
