King writes Booster Gold

Just based on how this sounds ? It ticks me off. A lot.


batman #45 cover
On the next arc of Batman, King said Booster Gold wants to get a wedding gift for Batman and Catwoman, so he saves Bruce’s parents! We see a world without Bruce as Batman — and that world sucks. Dick Grayson becomes Batman without Bruce. And WITH Bullets!



Booster Gold, a time traveler that has had SEVERAL arcs about not changing important moments in the past decides to save Bruce's parents? That just sounds ridiculously stupid. Booster was just in Action Comics preventing Superman from saving his planet ! Even if King tries to make some convoluted plot about this being a younger Booster it's asinine plot. Booster grew up in Gotham, he knows how Batman came to be. This sounds like a pointlessly out of character Booster acting like a moron for comic relief. I have a feeling it's going to be bad and I don't even want to think about the hint that Harley Quinn will be in it.

A world without Bruce as Batman. Dick Grayson as Batman and using guns? Why aren't these new ideas? Given Jason, future Tim and Thomas Wayne as Batman it really makes the concept of him using a gun boring. Not to mention Grayson but I had other issues with that book. But why not a world with no Batman?
