Batman writer Scott Snyder reveals major spoilers coming in tomorrow’s Batman #28 which looks 6 months into the future of the DC Universe.

 

“I’d say you’re going to learn who the new Kingpin of Gotham is and you’ll be very surprised by that. You’ll learn the fate of Harper Row, and see her in costume for the first time as the character she’ll become,” Snyder told DC Comics All Access.

 

If this turns out to be Harper Rowe – it sure looks like her costume is inspired by Nightwing. Many fans are speculating that Dick Grayson will not survive Forever Evil. After Damian’s death fans wondered if there would be a new “Robin” but it looks like Bruce may be getting a new sidekick that’s a hybrid of the roles played by Grayson. The Nightwing series is ending. No official word on DC’s plans for Grayson – if he’s still alive – after Forever Evil.

 

Here’s what Snyder said about the rumors of Rowe becoming Robin a year ago.

 

Batman #28 arrives tomorrow followed by the final arc of Zero Year.
