    He should overshoot the current timeline straight into the future. Kamandi can be his new Robin.
    The Joker can be a Hyena.
    The Penguin can be a penguin.

    I think I liked this idea better when it was called "Captain America: Reborn" and Ed Brubaker was doing it for Marvel Comics. Granted, the Big Two rip each other off all the time, but this seems a little on the nose and soon. I actually can't believe I'm the first to make the comparison.

    Before the flame-wars begin, I do realize that there are big differences in the storylines, but seriously, this seems like it maybe should have been held off on a bit longer.

    Enough of realistic Batman movies! The villains for the next movie should be King Tut or Maxie Zeus. Or both...as gay lovers.

    I didn't know the paleolithic era had giant bats from whence Bruce could get his giant bat-head for his costume.

    Also: Batman: Quantum Leap!

    "With each Leap Bruce tries to right what once went wrong, hoping that the next leap...will be the leap home."

    @Bill-Lee: As a child, I had:

    Lunar Attack Batman (with weird Laser Cannon)
    Midnight Hunter Batman (with glowing green Bear Trap)
    and
    Deep Dive Batman (with bright yellow leggings)

    As a Bats connoisseur, my 10 year old brain always had this question, "What the fuck!? When did this happen?"

    I look forward to Kenner's full prophetic realization.

    I didn't realize bats were that big in caveman times? I must have missed that snapple fact... the one I got said beavers used to be the size of bears.

    @Moff: You've got my support, not that I necessarily agree, but I am certainly a "Marvel Boy" at heart (even I thought that was awful). Moon Knight certainly has a compelling origin and set-up, he just needs that perfect writer to come along and make him into a star.

    @schrodingers-katana: I really do think Moon Knight is kinda great. The story arc I envision, by the way, involves Phil Spector turning out to be his murderous father.

    So, to put this in perspective, Captain America was dead (lost in time) longer than Batman was dead (lost in time). If my memory serves correctly, Superman was dead (recovering in the Fortress of Solitude) longer than Batman. And nobody can keep track of how long Jean Grey has been dead.

    This is almost close to my original Batman fanwank wet-dream idea for how he should have returned...

    So I am intrigued...

    Also I'm really happy to see Andy Kubert return, I liked his art throughout Morrison's last Batman run.
