SPOILER!! Death of Maidens and Batman Begins

[Det27]

They killed off Ra's Al Ghul a year before he appears in a movie? I don't see him staying dead.

A good mini series, but kind of an anticlimatic death for Ra's and an unsatisfying resolution of Talia and Bruce's relationship(especially if Son of the Demon Graphic novel is still in continuity and they have a child together somewhere. Dennis O'Neal said he didn't think it was in continuity, but he's not editor anymore, it wasn't an elsewords, and it was never discredited.) He would be kind of young, but that character would have been a good Hush, Batman's own son: Ibn Al Xuffasch or Tallant, depending on what Elseworld's future you like better)

If you haven't read them, I recommend the whole Demon's Head trilogy(Birth or the Demon, Bride of the Demons, Son of the Demon). Birth of is the best, the origin of Ra's done by his creator(O'Neal) with great art by Norm Breyfogle.

[glow=purple,2,300]I doubt he'll stay dead. Like you said, he's in the movie, he's one of the best Batman rogues there is (next to the Joker) , and he's immortal.

BTW: I read Son of the Demon, it was great. I recommend it to any Batman fan. [/glow]

It would be nice if they reissued the Demon books next year. Birth and Bride look like they are out of print according to my book distributors (which does not include Diamond). I need to go see if I can find a copy. That is one of the few major things I just haven't gotten around to reading.

Try milehighcomics.com , mycomicstore.com , or amazon.com

If you look around, you can usually find pretty good deals. Birth was reissued no that long ago in soft cover. Birth is, in my opinion, the best of the 3.

[glow=purple,2,300]I just checked Amazon.com and they have Birth of the Demon in stock, and ships to you in about 1-2 buisness days.
