When Bruce clutches the costume of yet another fallen Robin, I can't help but be reminded of Marius' solo in Les Misérables when he sings 'My friends, my friends, forgive me, that I live and you are gone. It's almost too tidy a farewell, considering the character's story arc since his first appearance but it's a neat juxtaposition to Bruce's wordless grief, masterfully illustrated by Gleason, Mick Gray (inks), and John Kalisz (colors). The only words we read in the entire issue come in the form of a note Damian left for Bruce before leaving, never to return. The silence makes his absence that much keener as Bruce's heart breaks and ours break with it. As Batman heads into the night, perhaps too haunted by memories he can't hope to escape, Robin begins to disappear from view. A dog waiting for an owner that will never come home.

A sketchbook full of drawings of the only true family a boy had ever known. A unfinished family portrait that Damian will never sit for again. A single glove, so small against Batman's own gauntlets. So soon after the death of Robin, the traces of his presence are still fresh. What does one say in the face of insurmountable loss? When confronted with the finality of death, words fail us as Bruce Wayne moves through the manor, haunted by the spaces where Damian Wayne used to be. The silence is unrelenting and unforgiving and ultimately, it speaks louder than any words possibly could. He teams with Robin (Chris ODonnell) and Batgirl (. There is nothing to mitigate the loss that blankets Wayne Manor like a shroud. George Clooney is Batman in Joel Schumachers camp follow up to 1995s Batman Forever. There is no omniscient, self-aware voice-over narration to accompany the images as they shift and coalesce on the page. There are no words spoken for none are needed. While the film seems to subtly suggest that Alfred actually intends for his curious niece Barbara Wilson to read the CD instead, that doesn't mean that Wilfred still isn't out there somewhere in the world. During the pre-'Crisis' era of DC Comics, Alfred does indeed have a brother named Wilfred - an actor whose daughter Daphne shares more than a few things in common with the version of Barbara we see in 'Batman & Robin.' Could Wilfred still be out there in the 'Schumacher-verse,' perhaps destined to one day rejoin his brother and help Gotham's most famous crimefighting team? We may never know, but should the Schumacher films one day be revisited, as unlikely as that sounds, the emergence of Wilfred could always be in the cards.Batman and Robin #18 is an almost entirely text-free issue. While his health remains embattled thanks to his struggles with MacGregor's Syndrome, Alfred prepares a CD-ROM with various information and schematics related to the Dynamic Duo, under the pretext that his elusive brother Wilfred should succeed him as Batman and Robin's butler and crimefighting aide.

Significant differences include Man-Bat's appearance as a major villain in 'DarKnight,' Joel Schumacher only being attached to direct 'Unchained,' and the intention to use 'DarKnight' as the beginning of a trilogy. Surprisingly, Batgirl is absent from both scripts.

Despite their different premises, the two films had many similarities, including the inclusions of Harley Quinn and Robin. The other was 'Batman: DarKnight,' in which the Caped Crusader leaves crimefighting behind until the Scarecrow makes Robin both a test subject and Arkham inmate. One was 'Batman Unchained,' in which the self-stylized Master of Fear uses his fear toxin to trick Batman into thinking he's fighting villains from the first three films reprised by their original actors.

As The Hollywood Reporter explains, two versions of a fifth 'Batman' movie almost went into production, both with the Scarecrow envisioned as a main villain. One could easily be forgiven for thinking the Bat-Signal run in the final scene of 'Batman & Robin' implies that more is coming.
