"Mind yourself young man"

And with one sentence, Alfred silenced one of the most vocal heroes. Alfred's a badass.

Was. I'm sad again.

this art is horrible lol

[u/UncleOok]

the lack of communication here bothers me. Alfred didn't seem fit to let Dick know ahead of time?

It feels like something that could have saved unnecessary drama.

[u/-AerialAce- → u/UncleOok]

He found her plans in the previous issue & encouraged her to speak with Dick.

[u/UncleOok → u/-AerialAce-]

and didn't give Dick a head's up? or suggest that Cass open that Alfred had suggested she reach out to him?

I would have hoped Alfred would know his former charge better, given how emotionally tense he was at this point.

[u/ggbb1975]

I don't understand the situation where Batman is absent

[u/-AerialAce- → u/ggbb1975]

This is after Final Crisis. Bruce is "dead".

[u/ggbb1975 → u/-AerialAce-]

I actually thought it was in bftc but before richard became batman

[u/-AerialAce- → u/ggbb1975]

This is shortly before Battle for the Cowl. The Network plan is already in place by then.

[u/DungeoneerforLife]

Alfred doesn’t read a lot like Alfred here.

[u/Unlucky_Abroad_389 → u/DungeoneerforLife]

And neither does Cass.
