“Who Killed The Batman?”
In the wake of Bruce Wayne's death and unmasking, his adopted son Turner Hayes forges an unlikely alliance with runaways Harper & Cullen Row as well as the criminal Duela when they are all accused of a murder they didn't commit by district attorney Harvey Dent.

Separating an adaptation form it's source material can be difficult for fans of any story or characters which makes the jump from one medium into another, whether it novel to movie or comic book to series. As a long time reader of the BAT-Fam this reimagining was wild. And DC is still doing this odd 'erase gingers' thing it's been on forever... I mean they are only 5% of the world as it is folks (plus there are like a 1000 white folks in the BATverse however once again they choose the only ginger to change the race of... I guess we did get a blonde Spoiler even if she's not the working class hero she is in the comics).
That being as it is, I found the pilot to be alright, I can't say I love it but it has potential and I'm willing to see if it lives up to that potential or goes wild like GOTHAM did... even if I know it won't last for all that long on the CW.
Anyone else have an opinion?
