I also like how Damian clearly prefers working with Dick Grayson than his own father. We get Batman and Damian dealing with their new father/son relationship while the world hangs in the balance. Leviathan has agents everywhere and a leader near and dear to Batman's heart. Taking on another secret organization so soon after beating The Black Glove (and probably Court of the Owls but I have no idea how the various timelines work out) seems a little repetitive at first glance but the stories aren't that similar.
A worldwide Batman needs a worldwide foe and we get that in Leviathan, an organization with a ring of bombs around the world. You get Batman in Japan, England, France, Australia, South Dakota, Argentina, and other places. Freshly back from the dead, Bruce Wayne takes Batman worldwide and funds Batmen in places besides Gotham. I am quite glad I did.ĭespite my initial poo-pooing the idea of Batman Incorporated, I loved the shit out of this.
Officially, Bruce Wayne publicly linking himself to Batman by funding Batman Incorporated is something I'm not a fan of but after enjoying the first and second Grant Morrison Batman Omnibus, I had to complete the run. He divides his time between his homes in Los Angeles and Scotland.īatman By Grant Morrison Omnibus: Volume Three collects material from Batman: The Return #1, Batman Incorporated #1-8, Batman Incorporated Volume 2 #0-13, Batman Incorporated: Leveiathan Strikes #1, and Batman Incorporated Special #1. He is also the author of the New York Times bestseller Supergods, a groundbreaking psycho-historic mapping of the superhero as a cultural organism. In his secret identity, Morrison is a "counterculture" spokesperson, a musician, an award-winning playwright and a chaos magician. In addition to expanding the DC Universe through titles ranging from the Eisner Award-winning SEVEN SOLDIERS and ALL-STAR SUPERMAN to the reality-shattering epic of FINAL CRISIS, he has also reinvented the worlds of the Dark Knight Detective in BATMAN AND ROBIN and BATMAN, INCORPORATED and the Man of Steel in The New 52 ACTION COMICS. Since then he has written such best-selling series as JLA, BATMAN and New X-Men, as well as such creator-owned works as THE INVISIBLES, SEAGUY, THE FILTH, WE3 and JOE THE BARBARIAN. Grant Morrison has been working with DC Comics for twenty five years, after beginning his American comics career with acclaimed runs on ANIMAL MAN and DOOM PATROL.
