Batwoman, Kate
To begin a new year.



ONE:
Like all of Gotham’s stories, ours begins in an alley.

Night. Dark. Wet. It’s rained, and will again, but for the moment, it’s stopped.

RUSH is running for his life. RUSH is male, Caucasian, blond, frat-boy haircut and good looks, but the clothes are all wrong – dead man’s clothes, thrift-shop, they don’t fit right, they’re ratty, and they’re mussed all the more because he is, as said, running for his life.

He’s been running for a while.

1 RUSH: uff huff uff uff uff

TWO:
RUSH looks back, wide-eyed and terrified.

2 RUSH: uff hnfff hfff—

THREE:
And something slams into him from the wrong way, the way he should have been looking but wasn’t. RUSH is being blown back into the darkness as if sucked that direction.

We see the RED BAT SYMBOL.


NO COPY.

Oh man, it's finally coming. I've been looking forward to this for years, and it's easily one of my most anticipated comics of 2009. This is gonna be fantastic. Thanks for the tease, and happy new year to you and yours.

I think it's sad that my first thought was Terry McGinnis.

Anyway, this is awesome.

Yes! I've been dying for more Batwoman stuff, I have high hopes for this character as she has so much potential.

FINALLY the Geddy Lee/Neil Pert/BatFamily team-up that we've been craving all these years! This'll be bigger than when Aerosmith crossed-over in to Shadow Man!

Well, seeing as the Blood Syndicate's already using "New World Man" as their unofficial anthem...

Batwoman has long been a cool-looking character waiting around to actually be a cool character. I'm hopeful this will achieve that.

Eh, I'm not that big a fan of Batwoman. I was excited to see Devin Grayson writing her, got let down, but I'm hopeful that you can make her interesting enough that I'll call her something besides Batlesbian :)

Looks like you've already made up your mind about the character, sadly. And I'm sorry you apparently missed out on 52.

Oh, no, I read and loved 52. Just couldn't stand Batwoman in there.

Why would you have called her Batlesbian?

Do you call Batman Bathetero?

I would certainly also be interested in seeing new stories written by Devin Grayson.

What does "NO COPY" mean?
Greg, why the "NO COPY" at the end? And do you typically hold yourself to a specific number of panels per page?

Re: What does "NO COPY" mean?
That was my guess. I'm just used to seeing "No caption." or "No dialogue."

Re: What does "NO COPY" mean?
I would assume...

That NO COPY is there to let the artist and editors know that there are no words to appear on the panel and that he hasn't forgotten to add the dialog/narration/thought bubbles.

A confirmation that nothing should be there.

Oh, good :D. I was worried that it meant I couldn't copypasta it and show my friends.

Squee! I've been rereading 52 (this time in trade form) and every time Batwoman's on the page, I just geek out. <3
