Warren Ellis is writing a T-Rex Batman story. Yes, a Batman that’s a fucking T-Rex. Amazing.

Warren Ellis is my favorite goddamn comic book writer of all time. Granted, I haven’t followed him as closely the past couple of years. But, that’s more about my failing to read any comics. That said? Ellis writing a T-Rex Batman may be just the juice needed to power my ass back into a funny book shop.
