New from The Source is a teaser about the new Earth 2's Batman and the design by Jim Lee:
“Who will Batman kill to save his own daughter?” asks EARTH 2 editor Pat McCallum. “Right out of the gate that should tell you we’re dealing with a different kind of Dark Knight here. More ruthless, dangerous…the costume is familiar and yeah, there is a Wayne under the mask, but we’re looking at a man desperate to save the only family he has left. EARTH 2 is about to become a very bad place to be a bad guy.”
"A Wayne" means it's not Dick Grayson under the cowl (unless on this Earth he took the Wayne name), and it's not Damian (unless he's aged enough to sire Helena). But it also suggests it's not Bruce--and definitely not a Bruce we know. (Unless "we" are Frank Miller, maybe.)
I'm still intrigued by the new Earth 2, but I'm more ready to be disappointed by what may end up being DC's Ultimate line.
