Andy Kubert On Damian Wayne's Return

Grant Morrison recently wrapped up his seven year run on Batman which included some great concepts and fresh ideas for the Dark Knight. One of the central pieces to his story was fleshing out Bruce Wayne's son, Damian. An interesting concept Morrision vistied was in Batman #666, where Damian had become Batman in a dystopian future of Gotham.

Andy Kubert was handling art duties for the issue and even had some great ideas of his own that he pitched to DC Comics. Unfortunately the son of Batman met his demise recently in Morrison's Batman Inc, but Kubert is looking to revisit the events that led Damian to follow in his fathers footsteps from that issue #666.

I enjoyed the character when I had first started working on him with Grant [Morrison] way back in issue #655, even though he only had a slight appearance in that issue. Even though I had only drawn him in a handful of issues, Damian was really starting to grow on me. By the time I had finished drawing issue #666, which was the last issue of my run, I had such a great time drawing that issue that I wanted to do something with Damian Batman again.

IGN has a full interview with Andy and few preview images where he'll not only be drawing, but also writing this story as well.
