Nice to see a cheap price also

So who's Batman holding? There's been some speculation Nightwing may die soon but I guess it could be anyone. And Hal's also on the cover crying

Nice grab verds. I would say that it's most likely d**k because Starfire is the only other Outsider on the cover (isn't d**k an Outsider?). Of course I'm also thinking about how he hooks up with Orangina in Kingdom Come but that's elseworlds. Still, I think it's Nightwing but we'll see.

No problem. When I saw the news on Comicon, I knew the Jim Lee fanatics would have a pic on their website

I'm hoping it's not Kyle but then it wouldn't make much sense for Batman to be the one holding him. It's probably someone from the Bat family and Nightwing's been mentioned for the chopping block (for Identity Crisis though) seeing as how he has the Year One story right now and no one is sure what's happening after this stoyline. There's been talk it may get cancelled after it, but then there was talk it would be cancelled after 100 (blame Rich Johnston)

Well that would be pretty damn horrific considering he just got over the whole rape contraversy. DC is not going the right route with their mainstream heroes. Enough with the rapes and murders already, it's getting rather sickening.

Jim Lee said there would be a LOT of red herrings and that the body is not who you would think. I think Nightwing being the most obvious canidate can be crossed out of the list of suspects.

EDIT: also, if you examine the cover more, closely you will see there appear to be goggles on the body. The head and hair is covered by the costume. The costume doesn't match NWs.

It is probably the beginning to next Summer's Crisis 2.

Since Johns will be writing it I seriously doubt it will be a continuation of Rape Comix. Also, next year is the 20th anniversary of Crisis. One rumor is that someone is going to try to bring back the multiverse and cause Crisis 2. Could be complete bunk though.

I could be really wrong here but if you look closely it kinda looks like a member of the Flash family because there appears to be a little lightening bolt on his "head gear"

You all see that too?

Looking at the group on that cover, there's JSA, Titans, and JLA, because currently Kory is helping Vic train the Titans. There could be some kinda clue in that maybe.

Pretty interesting.. probably not Nightwing, but it will probably go to a multiple deaths things so he's still likely to fall into the chopping block.....

would make sense that its someone in the Bat-family. and since its a A.Ross art, he puts great detail and having a more rounded chin so it could be a safe assumption that its someone of the younger generation
