In comic books there are unspoken laws:
- Ben Parker always dies and is the only character to remain dead
- Krypton always blows up
- AND ALFRED ALWAYS LIVES!!
Hey most amazing origins start by breaking or denying someone's rules let it play out
If they are going to Reboot DC universe again and they already started to kill off Batman long time villains. Let it play out. Besides Alfred was like in his low 80's so how long do you think he was still going to remain active. I always though they needed to bring in a Junior Butler years ago, Alfred's endurance is beyond human levels for a man of his advance age.
I believe it’s best for Alfred to stay dead not to be grim but to make Batman more interesting for the old readers a way for them to come back possibly give Batman more depth as a character and maybe change a little
@@ELBLANCO490 Batman Beyond is slowly getting started.
There’s a universe where Peter dies and uncle Ben lives
To Alfred, the real father of the Bat-family.
I really hope this pushes Bruce to step up as a father figure.
@@abigaildavis8496 not the point.
@@abigaildavis8496 I mean he knows that. At least that means he can do better.
The ultimate father
Without Alfred though, Bruce can never truly be Batman.
What’s great is, is thanks to the I love you dad part in the new comics, alfred is still able to bring Batman closer to his sons even in death. I still miss alfred with a passion.
It’s very important to me that Jason refuses to not be apart of the family. He feels he doesn’t belong, but always shows up.
That what true family does in the end
I’ve been living like this for the past 5 years
Except I don’t even get the opportunity to show up.
Yea he wasn’t even in that picture that was pin on the wall.
not always. Some times he tells Bruce to fuck off
@@chinyereugwu9431 because Bruce deserves it, The fact that he wasn't in The family picture proves it
@@chinyereugwu9431 Because he broke the code,he disobeyed Bruce,and is the Black sheep of the family he dosen't feel like he is apart of the family because of the things hes done.
To Alfred........
the one guy who knocked out Superman with a Headbutt. (injustice)
respect pal respect
Hell yeah.
To Alfred the butler that the family needed
To Alfred 😭😫
Supermans been knocked out by headbutts thousands of times but I understand the sentiment.
I'm literally got tears in my eyes like everyone here I grew up reading and watching batman and the one thing that never change was alfred was always there and I know someday somehow dc will bring him back but for now 😥
Right
I did not need to be crying that early in the morning when I picked up my books. What a well written piece. I don't know how they move past this but it will be interesting to see if Bruce rises above this or if he spirals downwards.
No i hope he stays dead bringing him back will ruin 5he story
I couldn't stop crying. I'll kill DC if it ends up being Clayface and I'll kill them if he's actually dead
Carmen Aguilar I don’t think you can do that
This whole storyline felt like a slap to the face.
At least we get a shake up in the Batcave.
@Identity 2050 Actually in a good way because it throws lots of shade towards the mind boggling decisions Tom King took and makes the Batfamily hold Batman responsible for the shit that happened under his watch and push him to step up and fully take the role of the father figure of the Batfamily and it gives a new and interesting dynamic there .
@@LP1ToTheEndOfTime I suppose it could lead to some interesting storylines...
@Identity 2050 Hmm.
@@somerandolad Yup , it could and knowing that Tynion and Tomasi are on the Batman books right now then at least I can see a glimpse of hope there .
R.I.P. Alfred
See you next Friday.
😂😂😂
It's been 4 years man
For the love of God can they end the Rick Grayson thing!
tyler newsted right?!
tyler newsted they are soon, it was confirmed that ric Grayson will become Dick Grayson again, after the backlash it received.
Yes this Rick Grayson thing is GAY!!!! End it, end it now.
Whats going on with Rick grayson
117RememberReach Ric Grayson is finished now, he’s Nightwing again after the Joker war
Alfred will always be best butler and you can’t tell me otherwise!
Lurch dislikes this.
If anyone says Jarvis I will die before I agree
Bens Chuncky Fuck Jarvis
hey numb=nuts ...he was more than a stinkin' butler......he was the FATHER OF THE BAT=FAMILY.
The fact that the Batfamily ordered Jason not to come and he came anyways shows how important Alfred was for him
And the fact Cassandra wasn't invited is beyond insulting!
To Alfred, the man who we truly didn't deserve, but at the same time always needed. The real one, the father figure, who would give his life for his family.
This death of Alfred can go either way it all depends on how they choose to use it. This could be a catalyst to propel the bat family into a really phenomenal chapter
Locochuwawa knowing bendis he’s probably going to ignore it because he’s Busy Writing Tim drake in young justice as drake
@highrollerlion i can see that being the case
Well that made me shed a tear... Also! WTF where was Jason in that picture! You can't say the whole family in costume and not have Jason!
This was probably during RHATO or RH:O. That or he was dead.
He probably was taking the photo
@@darkstardarin it was probaly when he got kicked outta gotham for sniping Penguin
@@HELLO_KORO Truuuue, also that.
@@darkstardarin Damian was in The picture, Jason was already alive and acting as Red Hood before Damian showed up
Next time.....
Alfred Who Laughs is coming.
No! Just no!
Villain Alfred? We're all fucked
@@zxshadowxz Earth 3 Outsider
with everything alfred is already capable of, i'm scared- yet curious.
I'm down.
To Alfred,
The one who made the bat and raised Bruce. The best father figure anyone could've asked for in a comic. Rest easy old friend.
Me watching this: *sad boi*
Me realizing he could pull a Jason and come back: *happiness noise*
Alfred's death in the Dark Knight Returns comics was more deserving, dying when his purpose of helping Bruce was served. It's what he would've wanted. Even though, he would've put his own life on the line for the Bat family many times, what Bane did to Alfred was just heartbreaking. Alfred dying of old age in the Dark Returns was a more dignified and fitting way for how he wanted to go, in peace and free of pain.
Yep. Alfred deserved better.
Alfred is the light and soul of the Bat Family. Without him, there's only darkness 😢😭
Wow, jason is one of the few who doesn’t blame bruce. Neat.
despite being stubbornand hardheaded, he was always the most loyal robin
If anyone in that family understands fucking up its jason
Jason knows how to handle grief better than the rest of the family. He lost a lot and he had to learn how to handle it by himself growing up on the streets.
Everytime they kill Alfred a part of me dies
same 😔
I'll be back in a year when they throw his skeleton into a lazarus pit.
Ric Is Still A Thing? Can’t Bruce Just Call Zatana Or Any Other Member Of The Justice League Dark Or A Telepath To Fix This?
To Alfred, the most badass buttler we'll ever meet
This even makes the viewers feel better. When I first saw alfred die the first thing that came to mind was a quote that alfred said "why do we fall, so we can learn to pick ourselves back up again."
This is the 4th time Alfred has died in a comic panel
Won't be the last time, either. Death never sticks.
@@AnomalyINC you say that, but at some point they're gonna have to let them all die and stay dead.
@@DJ7tringGuitar Why's that, you figure?
@@AnomalyINC beacause sooner or later death has to matter again its beacome joke and thats the one thing it should never be
@@DJ7tringGuitar Given the near-century of DC Comics that says otherwise, what makes you so sure?
this comic made me so sad and tears in my eyes.
To Alfred. The man the friend the father of the Bat Family.
Nightwing Issue 50 was stupid. Rick ain’t the guy for this it should be Grayson
BTW I repeat what I said from the heroes in crisis.
People: Brian Michael Bendis kills heroes
Tom King: hold my beer and fill it back up.
actually tom king says in an interview that he meant to save alfred but dc persisted on alfred being killed
Tom King again: *clears throat* Now watch me work
@@mohammedayyub798 DC insisting that he kills Alfred doesn't justify him doing it in a shitty way though .
Skarr hell, injustice did it better lol.
Dan Didio: wassup, nerds.
🍺
A toast for Alfred, the real father of Batman, and the Grandfather of the Bat Family.
This made me so sad. Alfred was such a great character. I can’t wait to see what Tynion will do with the Batman books.
Rest in peace Alfred James Pennyworth former M.I.6 agent and father figure to the Bat-Family and major parts of the Justice League. He will be truely missed by those who loved him and keep his memory alive for lifetimes to come
Amen....,.
@Jay Turani he'll come back in a couple of years
Amen
Ha didn't know you cared Joker
*cue everyone setting their watches for when he scares the Grim Reaper so much, they return him back to life*
Absolutely, there is no way they will keep Alfred dead for long. Also, hello again.
Half of the Batfamily has already died. Cassandra has died twice even. How any of them take death seriously anymore is beyond me. I keep expecting someone to make a speech like Batman did in Robot Chicken:
"I am done with your funerals, your wakes, or flying to your home planets to scatter your fucking ashes! I am DONE!!!"
ALFRED NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Don't worry, he'll come back.
@@abigaildavis8496 Have you ever actually read a comic?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I know he's most likely to come back, but christ this hits me where i live.
Gotham?
I honestly wanna live like Alfred.
Have people love and remember me when I pass.
Leave a positive impact in people lives.
Make a difference in people by doing simple to great things in people lives
Needed this edge to finally cry my heart out, something that I needed for some reason.
Cried when I read this, crying again right now.
But for the love of God, Jason. Put those sunglasses down, show some respect to the family you always sneak up towards to because you know you need it.
AND STOP LOOKING LIKE THE PENGUIN!
Personally, I think Jason was the only one who was respectful because he didn't gang up on Bruce and blame him for everything while he was grieving for Alfred. Barbara was worst of all.
This has to be the one comic that actually made me wanna cry a bit this is so sad 😞 Too Alfred
So Bruce and the rest didn't tell Jason that Bruce sent Damian in because Alfred told Bruce it was safe to send the family in? That's just cruel. Poor Damian he blames himself. Bruce should tell them the truth. He ordered Damian to go into Gotham
I guessing Barbara doesn't know either since she was accusing him.
Seriously. That’s gotta be traumatic for him.
The last time I cried like this over one of Comicstorian's videos was Scooby Doo Apocalypse: The Death of Fred Jones😥💔
IM NOT CRYING!! Y-YOUR CRYING
What about my crying?
All we are crying
R.I.P
Alfred pennyworth.
Rip alferd the best butler ever. Alfred we miss you.
I feel like this is a good way to honor Alfred it’s sad but it also show how caring he really was not just to Bruce but to the whole bat family and how much he means to them
Not Alfred; but .... The Outsider! Major baddy for a year or more before even thinking about returning Alfred.
I feel like Alfred's death could’ve been done better. The city of bane story didn’t really do it justice. Personal opinion.
Hearing that King's original plan was to make it clay face solves that mystery, which just makes the how it happened even more tragic.
This is why you don’t let publishers interfere!
That's my point exactly because people go around saying that it was DC's idea and thus we can't blame Tom King however we all know that it's Tom King's job to write that idea well and he didn't so we can't blame the writing on DC's editorial too .
Amen.
@@LP1ToTheEndOfTime he wrote it half assed cause he thought he was writing his way out of it using clayface but after it was written he wasn't allowed to finish it off the way he intended.
@@thegenerousdegenerate9395 I guess not because DC wouldn't just tell him that right before the issue comes out because the whole thing about Tom's run being cut down to 85 issues and his meeting with the higher ups about something that is going '' to change Batman for the upcoming generation '' was before CoB started so I think that DC gave him the idea to kill Alfred way before City of Bane started , but he chose to go with the same scenario , but instead of faking Alfred's death he made it real .
You was like the Alfred of comics on RUclips man it’s sad too see you go
I'm not crying. There's jst something in my eye...😥😥😥
I loved this. I'm not crying. You're crying.😢😢
Rip to the king of RUclips comics, we will always miss you comicstorian. Our condolences go out you your wife and family.❤
I hate this. I hate everything about this.
It doesn't feel like a beloved character has passed. It feels like John Wicks puppy. A gut punch from a writer to drive a narrative.
It feels like dc execs murdered Alfred in an attempt to drive sales.
It feels like what it is... Cheap, fake, wrong and somehow, weirdly personal.
It wasn't done to Bruce Wayne or the bat family it was done to US the reader, the long time fan.
Casual readers won't care and cannonically it won't stick so who does that leave? What/who was this for?
Don't poke your fans with a stick to see what happens DC. Did the death of Supes teach you nothing? Bad call guys. If there was a legitimate reason for it I could forgive it but there isn't and I can't so finish this up and move on. All you've done is cut the warm heart out of the batman stories. A necessary balance. Now we have to wait until you can either write your way out of it or until its been long enough you can bring him back without losing face.
Good job guys. Well done.
The death of Supes taught them that killing off major characters is a great way to drive up sales
I agree. None of this was earned.
@@brendancody4277 and piss off fans.
Oh yeah, is Nightwing still an Owl?
Yeah this is kinda bullshit.
The way he died was atrocious, but I'm hopeful about what writers could do with the premise. It wouldn't be the first time a great series defining change came from a less than steller story.
The man deserves a family like that.
I hope you don't mean like Barbara. She was awful in this!
This is why Alfred is so important to the batfamily, I love this issue so much.
Whenever Bruce was down and needed help, Alfred would always help him and get him back up. Without Alfred, how can Bruce be Batman?
Alfred deserve better than this. He was more than Bruce's butler, he was his best friend. Without him, Bruce couldn't truly be Batman. Why? Because every time Bruce was at his worst, Alfred was always there for him and helped get him back up. But now, I don't know how Bruce could recover this time. Bane really broke the Bat, Joker's probably pissed off that not only did Bane the very thing he wanted to do for years, break the spirit of his enemy. Not mention, Bruce's father Thomas, one of his very reasons for becoming Batman played a part in the death of the man who helped Bruce throughout all the years. Not to mention, after everything Alfred did for the Wayne family. This is how he was rewarded? Alfred was the best of the Bat Family, he was the only person who kept Bruce sane. This was probably the worst to happen to Batman since losing Jason. Damian's blames himself for what happened to Alfred, but it wasn't his fault. Alfred would've died protecting the Bat family, but this was not a deserving fate for him. How Bruce will recover from this, I don't know. Thomas's delusional attempts at giving Bruce a normal life ended with destroying what's left of it as well ruining his son's chance at actually living one while still being Batman.
To Alfred, everyone’s Father. 🍷
RIP Comicstorian. You did an amazing job
I love comicstorian. We need more comics!
I sense a "Alfred thrown into the Lazarus Pit." issue coming soon...
I think they'll wait until the next reboot lol
This hurt alot more then I thought it would... Rest well sweet prince of the Bat Family
Thank you for the amazing way your presented this to us. I do miss him but love all the great stories DC has of Alfred.
R.I.P. Alfred Pennyworth: truly the hardest-working hero in DC Comics. Not only did he support Batman and the entire Bat Family, he also propped up most of the DC heroes at least once- and some many times, like Superman and Green Arrow.
Alfred is not just a Butler he's a true hero through and through.
When you're so early that all comments were seconds ago
This was really sad and depressing and it breaks my heart the bat family is now destroyed again also I miss Alfred so much.
I'm in tears, your narration and the story arc together, I couldn't handle it...
RIP to Alfred and to you Benny, we been missing you Brother, still can't believe you gone too soon, ❤always one of your biggest fans.
This shows how much alfred was a father to all of them, not jus Bruce. Great story telling tho. You could actually feel the hurt through your narration an the music.
Anyone feel like this is Batman's equivalent to "One More Day?"
Oh sweet batfamily pretending that Alfred won’t be resurrected or something along those lines
Not everyone comes back. Lian Harper, daughter of Roy Harper, for one.
Had to try really hard to ball my eyes out listening to this, you made this story really hit home benny. Alfred was a legend, long live the king!
It feels like a member of my actual family died. Sitting over here with tears in my eyes.. damn..
Love the bat family. Poor Alfred. He deserved better. He was a good man. W/ the whole family I'm surprised they didn't team 2geather n save Alfred. Hell of a job Benny n team well done as always Brotha. Keep up the phenomenal work. Comicstorian's the GREATEST EVER!!!!
Alfred's father's name is Jarvis
It's seriously messed up that this happened during "Rick Grayson" because Dick not being present at a time like this is seriously wrong.
I read a beautiful line sometime back.. Alfred is Batman's Batman.
His dad and protector.
He can't be gone! :''''''''''
farewell benny your death hit us all
I cried lile I would at a funeral, I love Alfred like a kid would live their grandpa, it broke my heart when they killed him, I'm still processing through it, to Alfred
This hits even harder after Benny died
Ahhhh damn... Right in the feels man!!!
Oh man that was a tearful issue of Batman. It's not going to be the same without Alfred.
Alfred is not dead . His father threw Alfred into time and the Alfred we seen died was Bruce’s father Alfred . Alfred is somewhere in tine where a rescue mission is going to play out and during that mission they will find something that they weren’t supposed to find and the multi verse will come under fire once again
I think this is a way to apply realism into the Batman universe. I like it. Imagine that in Batman Beyond Bruce suddenly gets a flashback of Alfred from before his death and how they use it as a callback with now Bruce leading the family instead of Alfred.
Rip you will be missed🥲
I think they'll bring him back just like everyone else, but with some kind of strange twist, I believe
This whole batman story with Bane and Thomas Wayne was a mess and a half, but this was nice to show how much of an impact one person can have on a family.
What else can you say but, To Alfred...
Yes so glad you guys are doing this story.
Nothing will be worse than the fact that they killed Alfred while the dumbass Rick Grayson thing was going on.
Rest in peace Alfred May forever live in our hearts.
I think this was the best possible way to kill off someone so important like Alfred. It’s beautiful.
I think as a fan you have to embrace the multi verse and know Alfred is still around in one place or another even if they leave him dead here
Thanks man..for bringing it to us.
I never thought i would agree with DC editorial but it is time to move the bat family on without alfred.
Why was Tim wearing his Red Robin costume if he was Robin at The time
Danm that was so great, yet so sad.. well done Benny
I feel like they might do something to bring him back. He’s awesome
I hope that the death of Alfred gives a way for Jason to return into the BatFamily and be a leading person in Bruce’s grief
I honestly LOVE Alfred & Jason’s relationship!! 🥺❤️🖤
Jason's shades are dope
Rest in peace Alfred Pennyworth, the best butler/father figure/ friend/ badass person to have ever lived
To Alfred
The butler, the step father, the side kick the mentor and the best guardian a young man from Gotham could ever have.
Salute
