Paul Pope is slated to deliver BATMAN: YEAR 100, a libertarian-themed re-imagining of Batman in a dystopian 2039. I hate to slag on PP, but regardless of his assurances to the contrary, I’m pretty sure I read this already (don’t get me wrong - I’ll be buying it anyway). And surely the amount of effort that must be required to make Batman… not stupid… could be put to some more creative and original use? Hell, a guy’s gotta eat, I guess.
Come to think of it, who am I to criticize?
Client: I think it needs to be jazzed up a bit. Can we make the whole thing yellow?
Me: Okay, sure (ohhhhhh i hate myself).
There’s some good news, too - it looks like there’s a lot more THB material coming.
