I liked towards the end when Bruce makes it back to the cave, he gets a little bit of post traumatic stress when Alfred turns on the lights and the Talon suit literally scares Bruce.

Which sucks, because it is awesome. -His parents don't become bats, they become owls. I would assume this is to show how much the idea of the owls killing his parents torments him. -Skipped the creepy child telling the talon to kill Bruce, so much creepin'. Other than that, I really like your idea of re-kicking the N52 off in order to make an easy to follow Rebirth playlist.

When i was a kid I spent about a year growing up in the Nassau area in Texas. I would occupy myself by riding my bicycle around to various areas and - often - riding the elevators in large office buildings. It wasn't long until I discovered that, at that time at least, that nearly all buildings had a secret 13th floor where they would typically store their construction tools, certain teams would be staged there (security, facilities, etc). It's really fun to see that fact called out in the video.

The Court of Owls has pervaded Batman related media throughout the 2010s, and now it is getting a mainline video game appearance from rocksteady studios. The famous creators of the Batman Arkham series are doing their take on The Court of Owls, in wake of Operation: Knightfall at the end of Arkham Knight. I am reminded of the League of Assassins when I hear about the Court of Owls, mostly because I first heard of them in the animated film Son of Batman. While Damien does appear in the original story, that film did NOTHING to cover how pervasive, unnatural, and sadistic this rival assassin clan really is. In real life, I went to a university where owls are the symbol of knowledge, fellowship and tenacity... but my loyalty concerning night creatures in Gotham has always been with the bat.

Batman: The Court of Owls in my opinion, is brilliant storytelling. Of course it demonstrates Batman's effectiveness in physical "altercations" with villains' and crooks... but also how great a detective Batman is. This book really gets into his thinking process and sponge-like memory and how he can easily and logically connect dots. His multi-disciplined approach to fighting crime is on full display in this book! Snyder, Capullo, Glapion and team... are truly gifted artists and knocked it out of the park!

May spontaneously decompose and ignite when mixed with ammonium salts. May explode under prolonged exposure to heat or fire. Used to make matches, paper, explosives, and many other uses."
