Yeah but that does not necessarily mean Batman is killed. At least I hope not. I would hate that ending to be honest.
Yeah, it doesnt mean he dies, but i would like him to. I love Batman, but I always hated his comic book deaths because they always felt cheap. Him dying after saving Gotham would be a great way to end the series, IMO. That or Alfred chokes on a Tangerine. I would take either.
