Detective Comics #939 – Rise Of The Batmen Pt. 6
In this new Batman comic the saga continues. And I spoke too
soon thinking last issue ended the “Rise of the Batmen” story arc. In this next
installment to the aforementioned story arc the Wayne/Kane family history is
expounded on a little more. Which illustrates that everyone has family
problems. The interesting twist here is the feelings and anger Jacob has
towards Thomas Wayne about the night him and Martha were killed. The corollary
being that in the present day Colonel Kane once again is at odds with both his
daughter and his nephew.
After clearing out the Colony from the Belfry there’s a lot
of clean up to do but thankfully Tim had planned ahead for such a monumental
task. Where does he find the time to fight crime and develop sophisticated Dirt
Devil-like gadgets!?
The deepening rift between Kate and her father is only being
made by the complexity of her teaming up with Batman. She learns Bruce had a
strong suspicion her father was involved before he recruited her. Bruce kept
this from her and Kate now feels disrespected by the lie and demands no more
lies from Bruce. He agrees, however, I think there’s more that Bruce isn’t telling
Kate so his agreement is another lie cause to not lie to Kate would me Kate
would have charge over Bruce and we all know that isn’t going to happen. But
only time will tell to exactly what else Bruce is lying about.
In the climax to this issue Tim has learned something
disturbing about the clones the Colonel unleashes on Gotham to eradicate the
mythical League of Shadows. Batman and the group know better and think the ones
targeted are innocent of any wrong doing. Tim, in a self-less act, devises a
plan to lure the coming drones away from their intended target. But at a high
cost to the team and Batman.
