WARNING: This article contains major spoilers for Batman #50, on sale July 4 by DC Comics
With the ending of this Wednesday’s Batman #50 being spoiled, writer Tom King has admitted he’s both “pissed” and “excited” at the same time, expressing solidarity with those who took issue with the spoilers.
The New York Times released an article Sunday morning spoiling the fate of Batman and Catwoman’s wedding, which incensed a lot of fans online who followed the engagement religiously since Bruce Wayne popped the question to Selina Kyle in Batman #24. However, King is still urging fans to pick the issue up to garner answers to the questions that will linger in the wake of the highly-anticipated ceremony. He has advised fans to also mute spoilers online if they can.
