DC's next big thing

Countdown, by Geoff Johns:



There's tons of speculation on who that body is already. I hope the folks saying it's Ted Kord are dead wrong, as losing my favorite DC and Marvel characters in the span of four months would suck.

If it's bat girl, so help me I'll cry.

The Batman world has been so full of dead characters lately.... It wouldn't suprise me.

I mean, Robin got his ass kicked but good a few episodes back, and we all saw what happened to Stephanie.

Actually, all I know of recent Batworld events is the first Willingham Robin GN (in which Steph becomes the new Robin). I'm afraid to ask, but what happened?

Well, Batman fires Steph, and in an attempt to get back in Batman's good graces, she steals one of Batman's plan to end all the crime in Gotham. And it backfires and starts a huge war in Gotham.

In the end, lots of people die, the Batcave gets located, invaded and destroyed, and Steph winds up dying.

Nightwing is seriously injured, so Batgirl and Robin are currently covering Nightwings city.

It's been a CRAZY fall in the Batworld, as you called it.
