Do you follow the actual comic?

Something tells me that most Batman fans wouldn't be willing to read a comic about how he's gay, but... I'll ask anyway. Do you guys follow the actual comic regularly? It's gotten really interesting lately, and it's currently a total page-turner. I'm biting my lip in anticipation of the next one.

Of course, Bruce is obnoxiously heterosexual (it causes him problems, so it's all good), and Tim is pretty much an absentee character. But Alfred is there! xD Anyway, just thought I would share that with you guys.

Bruce told her that he was Batman. -rolls eyes- Silly Brucie. He should know better by now.

Anyway, go forth and frolic, my lovelies!

Ack, I never saw these comments!
Yes. Well, it depends on when you jump in, volubleviking. You have to get in between an arch. Currently, it's in the midst of an arch. If you started reading it after this arch, you would probably be able to read it fine and dandy. Either that or go buy a the past 10 issues or so. It all depends on how you want to start.

Daaakota, I used to watch the Justice League cartoon (before they bogged it down with the irregular heroes), and I do agree that Batman is well portrayed in that series.

Still, my favorite Bruce lays in that of the 1990s cartoon program, voiced by Kevin Conroy. :)

Although it's a tad belated, I figured that it would still be nice to comment to your question.
No. D: I don't read the regular comics. I've always wanted to, but I'm really afraid it's too late, or is it the type of comic you can just take up?
I really love Batman, and I do know more than a passing fan, but I am still unable to call myself a uberBatmandork.

It's too bad Robin isn't a regular fixture to the more recent ones, but obviously the woman troubles mean that he's 100% in love with Tim as your comic aptly illustrates. Wooh! I hope I don't seem all weird commenting so much.(If it's even so much..) ( I just got an account and I still don't feel confident posting. xD ) But I love your comic!

I havent read the comic now, but I read other things, like all of Jeff Loebs stuff.

I've read Hush 1,2, The Long Halloween, Dark Victory, Some of the Robin comics, Year One, and afew other things here or there.

Also, I used to watch the old Batman show, which was totally NOT Batman-like at all. He had a surfing contest with the Joker. That is all I have to say about that...

And of course, the movies... I am so excited for Dark Knight, and I think the animated Gotham Knight will be super cool too.

But where I actually get most of my Batman intake is Justice League Unlimited. I freaking love that show. That is the Batman I imagine, kind of a jerk, but he is secretly a nice guy, he just doesnt really know it.
