BatWatch: Christopher Nolan has issued a statement regarding the Denver shooting;

"Speaking on behalf of the cast and crew of The Dark Knight Rises, I would like to express our profound sorrow at the senseless tragedy that has befallen the entire Aurora community. I would not presume to know anything about the victims of the shooting but that they were there last night to watch a movie. I believe movies are one of the great American art forms and the shared experience of watching a story unfold on screen is an important and joyful pastime. The movie theatre is my home, and the idea that someone would violate that innocent and hopeful place in such an unbearably savage way is devastating to me. Nothing any of us can say could ever adequately express our feelings for the innocent victims of this appalling crime, but our thoughts are with them and their families."

BatWatch2: Dustin Nguyen's Batman/Daredevil crossover that will never be.

HappyWatch: Grant Morrison and Darick Robertson finally explain what Happy is all about.

Morrison: The iconic blue feather belongs to Happy, yes. The driving engine of this story is the idea of dropping what is essentially a charming cartoon character into the filthiest corners of the human experience and watching the fallout. I wanted to explore the contrast between the ultimate hateful cynic and the ultimate incorrigible optimist and to place upon this tiny blue horse the entire burden of a culture that's afraid to be hopeful. Happy desperately needs Nick's help for reasons revealed in the first issue but Nick only cares about saving his own skin – and it's that tension that drives our story toward its conclusion.

They say I am a work in progress. The fools.
