Tom King takes over the Batman
series from Scott Snyder and the first Rebirth villain is the Calender Man who
ages with the seasons. Bruce Wayne regains his company and fortune following
Batman Eternal and brings Duke Thomas to become something other than a Robin.
This is a quick issue where we restore Bruce Wayne to billionaire status and
little if anything else. I was expecting Rebirth would be a history lesson from Gotham City to the Court of Owls and how the Batman legacy plays into it after the events of Grant Morrison's R.I.P. This was a disappointing filler issue when more is expected after DC Universe: Rebirth #1.
