Here they are, courtesy of Newsarama: http://www.newsar...icits.htm
Several interesting Bat-related projects, including the long-awaited Batman: Year One Hundred by the great Paul Pope. A couple of milestone issues, too, as Batman reaches its 650th issue, and LOTDK reaches issue #200. Gotham Knights is cancelled, as is Gotham Central. :upsetw: GK I can deal with, but the loss of Gotham Central really stings. IT's supposed to be replaced by the upcoming series Streets of Gotham, which, hopefully, will be basically the same book under a different title.
Lots of Infinite Crisis stuff, too. Such a surprise, I know. The Perez cover for IC #5 is fantastic. Things are really reaching a fever pitch. This is the last month before the entire DCU leaps ahead one year later, or OYL. Anyway, everyone feel free to post the books you plan to get!

I might as well get those final issues, just because. I'm already getting Gotham Knights, because of the Hush stuff. I'll probably pick up more of that Batman stuff. It's pretty pathetic though, I haven't read any of my comics for... quite a little bit now. I best get back to studying...

It looks to be a Batmonth in February. Batman Year 100, Batman#650, Legends of the Dark Knight #200, Gotham Knights final issue, and Batman Strikes#18 with the Batgirl. It will be an interesting month even without All Star.::batmanbeyond::

ive never checked out gotham central eventho from what i gather id be hooked on it rather automatically since i like the crime-drama type of stuff liek CSI and whatnot. considering its the final issue i think ill pick it up. is that also the final issue of legends? it isnt notied anywhere but seeing as how it hit the 200 mark i was wondering, if so then i might grab it as well lol.
im of course picking up the infinite crisis issue along with that secret files thing, as it should help someone like me who gets dizzy with so many characters coming outta nowhere lol. as usual ill grab the det. and batman issues, along with the matt wagner mini which has gotten off to a pretty good start from what i can tell.
if i recall corretly wasnt the batman annual that was gonna blow the lid off the whole red hood thing supposed to come out in feb as well? maybe it was march, ill have to go back and check.
looks like weve got alot of good stuff to look forward to

Yeah, the Batman annual is due in March. I was also expecting LOTDK to be cancelled in favor of the upcoming Batman Confidential book-- and who knows, it still might be-- but it won't be ending in February, in any case. If you plan to pick up the final issue of Gotham Central, you'll also probably want to pick up the December and January issues too, since the final three issues form a single story arc. It may be a bit tough to follow, since it's resolving an ongoing subplot that's been building for about 2 years now. The IC Secret Files is something I'll pick up too, but for me it's mostly because of the story MArv Wolfman is writing for it. It's supposed to put the spotlight on all the events that led from the Crisis on Infinite Earths to the current Infinite Crisis, using a lot of past comic events as part of the overall tale. Should be good stuff, I trust Wolfman to pull it off.

I wonder how big that Secret Files is going to be. Wolfman originally was going to make Crisis 10 issues then it stretched out to 12. Now he is going to be dealing with 20 years of some really messed up continuity. I bet he does a great job, but I bet the thing is crammed with info. Should be really cool though.

Batboy, please refrain from double and triple posting. If someone wants to or is able to make the modifications to the picture you want changed they will do it. Posting over and over won't make it happen.
Thank you,
Darknight

It should be 64 pages. The lead story should take more than half of that space.
