At the end of Batman #134, Bruce Wayne, on secondment from his own universe to a Gotham which never had a Batman, lost a hand. Chopped right off, by that universe's version of Ghost-Maker, Ghost-Breaker.

When everything turned to red. It was a subtlety lost on some. And some wondered if they had seen it right, if it was an illusion and if the next issue would clarify things.

Two weeks ago, Bleeding Cool showed the first page from Batman #900, or Batman Vol 3 #135 if you prefer, and it was a lot more definitive. He was missing a hand. And was having to deal with the dismemberment.

His right hand as well. Now, as we have seen with Alfred Pennyworth, his home Gotham is quite good at attaching hands back to people, even after quite some time. And we also have the cover from Batman #136 in which he presumably returns to his own Gotham, and seems to have his hand back. Or a hand back. He did seem to appear to be paying his right hand a lot of attention on the cover…

Well, Bleeding Cool has learned a few things about Batman #900. Yes, Batman has lost a hand. But he is also following the Red Mask, the man who would have been The Joker if he had been driven insane. And travelling the multiverse to try and recreate the events that drove the original, and other Jokers, insane.. And a handless Batman in hot pursuit. Which will also give the Batman and the Jokers a chance to visit some old favourite realities. From the Batman movies, cartoons and Elseworlds, classic tales from Dark Knight to Killing Joker and beyond, it's everything, everywhere, all at once, with as many of the original artists brought in to draw those pages and panels. Surely someone somewhere will be able to give him a hand? After all, you'll need hands for this, right?
