Alfred Pennyworth served the Wayne family for decades-even through the tragic loss of Bruce Wayne's parents. His death at the hands of Bane is the only event that could possibly compare to that fateful night in Crime Alley, and it leaves Bruce at a similar crossroads. If Alfred was the glue that held the Bat-Family together, how will Batman deal with that all falling apart? And if the Caped Crusader is to be truly alone, he might either hang that cape up once and for all…or double down and carry on with this vengeful quest forever. Batman: Pennyworth R.I.P. #1 celebrates the life of one of the most important people in the history of Gotham City, while also addressing questions about what's next.

Reviews

Wow! I hadn't planned on reviewing this as it seemed like a part of a pointless tie in on the part of DC. But the truth is that I was almost immediatelt drawn in by Tynion IV and Tomasi's story. This is a gut wrenching look at the Batman "family"! The loss of Alfred is by far the worse thing that could happen and this is a fascinating look at the reasons why. The crushing reality of this loss is broken up by short snippets of what Alfred meant to each member of the immediate Bat-Family. But they only enforce the problems facing Bruce Wayne with his trusted friend gone. This one really hammers home what Alfred really was to everyone. Expect to get mad and then tear up by the time this one-shot is over.
