In recent interviews it is said that during ‘Battle for the Cowl’ will have the ‘Bat-Family’ and other supporting cast members establish a network in order to keep things under control now that Batman is no longer around.

It got me thinking of all the help that Batman has at his disposal:

Main Cast:
Batman
Alfred
Nightwing
Robin – Drake
Batgirl - Cassandra Cain

Secondary Support:
Azrael
Jason Todd
Spoiler
Batgirl
Oracle
Huntress
Batwoman
Renee Montoya - The Question

Gothom Police:
Commissioner Gordon
Harvey Bullock
Private Detective Brad(?) – From ‘Face the Face’

Wild Cards:
Anarky
Bane
Catwoman
Talia al Ghul
Penguin
Catman

This is quite a lot of manpower.
It would be great this some titles/mini spin out of RIP/ Battle for the Cowl Storylines!

It was a little hard to classify them as some characters as some could fall in more than one category. As for the Wild Cards, although they have been foes in the past, they have a certain amount of respect and have aided Bats in the past

On a side note, with the image of Batman saying “You’re wrong ! Batman and Robin will live forever!”, the very second I saw this, I thought that the Robin depicted there was Damien and Batman is Nightwing. Who knows what happened to Drake? After all he is becoming darker and tension between him and Dick is growing…

I think that he will either retire or maybe even get killed off. I fid it strange that in the image of ‘Battle for the Cowl’ where all the supporting character are shown, there is no sign of Tim.
They have Catman for God’s Sake but on Tim Drake/Robin
Hmmm...it is highly suspect..
