'Batman RIP' will see "the end of Bruce Wayne as Batman", according to Grant Morrison.

There are rumours that Batman will suffer a gruesome end when his sidekick Robin goes over to "the dark side" and destroys him in a terrible betrayal.

Batman, alter ego of Bruce Wayne a wealthy industrialist, operates in the American Gotham City.

Others speculate that Wayne may either retire from his duties or be killed by a mystery villain known as the Black Glove.

His fate will be revealed in the latest issue of DC Comic's Batman, published on 26 November.

Either way, his demise will lead to a hunt for a replacement.

"What I am doing is a fate worse than death, things that no one would expect to happen to these guys at all," Mr Morrison told Comic Book Resources.

Mr Morrison, the Scottish writer, has written storylines for comics including X-Men for Marvel and Superman for DC Comics. He took over writing the Batman series for DC in 2006.

Bruce Wayne has given up the Caped Crusader mantle once before. In the 'Knightfall' storyline, Batman's back was broken by villain Bane, causing Wayne to recruit Jean-Paul Valley to replace him.

Mr Morrison declined to reveal who the new Batman would be, but the frontrunners include Tim Drake who has been Robin since 1991 and Dick Grayson - the original Boy Wonder.

It is not the first time a superhero has met an unfortunate end in the comic world.

Last year, Captain America was killed after being shot by a sniper in New York.

Superman's death in 1992 at the hands of Doomsday became the biggest selling Superman comic in history. He was later resurrected.

Batman was co-created by artist Bob Kane and writer Bill Finger for DC Comics. The character first appeared in Detective Comics in May 1939.

Mentally Challenged. Read carefully.

Batman is famous to know by always cheat on his death.

Is there going to be a real that Bruce Wayne gone forever and have someone take over his spot?

Honestly, I'm too disappointment on new Captain America.

*shrugs* I am saying HOW. What will Robin use to kill Batman, get the drift????
 
I think Terry will make time travel to past and take over Bruce's spot.
 
Sounds stupid.

They just do that to get comic fans' attention by selling more comics.

The same shit happened with Superman, Captain America, and obviously other famous superheroes as Spider-man were killed but still around in the comic books for years as they always change their story no matter how cheesy it gets.

That's part of why I dont really read comic books anymore cause it seems they ran out of ideas to keep up with the super heroes and villains. Sometimes it could be best for the comic series to end and just go with animated tv shows or movies once in awhile.

Even if Batman is already dead, I'm sure he will still be around in other comics as Batman-Superman comics, Justice League comics, and others.

So...the thing about Batman's death isnt really a big deal. It's not really the end of him anyway. :roll:

Precisely. Its just a huge build-up for an inevitable comeback. Batman arguablly is the most popular comic book character ever. To kill him, would really piss off a lot of comic book loyalists.

Batman is one of the most popular comicbook characters ever lived, yes. Most comic book fans admire batman, and I do admire him as well but I'm a bigger Spider-man fan so thats just me.

Even I do think Batman is better than Superman...hates a superhero who is obviously overpowered and couldnt even take damage when he gets shot in the eye. :roll:
