Son of Batman Trailer

Here is the trailer for the new DC universe animated movie- Son of Batman. It’s based off of Grant Morrison’s 2006 graphic novel, Batman and Son. I usually do not like the way Morrison writes Batman because I believe he is usually off the mark when it comes to providing the emotionally depth of the character. He writes Batman as if he is emotionless. While most Batman readers may love to him like this, I like when he has to regulate his emotions for a higher purpose. I always believed that’s one of Batman’s strongest qualities. Being able to be a strong character even though it’s apparent he he’s emotionally tormented. Morrison explores this for a change.  While Dick Grayson, Jason Todd and Tim Drake were son like figures in his Batman’s life, they all provided a different dynamic and contrasting perspectives. Batman & Son was a great story of Bruce Wayne understanding a new person in his life that is so much like him. He has to understand himself more in order to teach his son to be a better and more compassionate hero. Batman & Son is a good read.
