LONDON, England (CNN) -- London's police chief has demanded an urgent inquiry after a fathers rights campaigner dressed as Batman evaded supposedly tight security to stage a protest on a Buckingham Palace balcony.
The Associated Press ran an article this week about how Identity Crisis is a different kind of superhero tale, one with tragedy and consequences, etc. In addition to interviewing writer Brad Meltzer, who is also promoting the WB's Jack and Bobby, of which he is a co-creator, the article quotes artist Rags Morales and DC editor Dan DiDio, who talks about how this storyline will change the tone of the DC Universe:
"It has long-term ramifications for the next two years of storytelling, and we’ve already laid out one year. It’s a tonal shift. It’s an attitude and expectation. The DC universe is a very optimistic place. It’s a place you want to be living in. It’s a place where you know they’re building to a better future. They just have to work harder to get to that better future now, which is more reflective of the times we live in.”
