Death Stories


Fortress of Solitude


Bruce converted the Batmobile (which was like a Transformer) into the Batwing and flew to the Fortress of Solitude. Shazam greeted him.


Bruce realized he could talk to Shazam about the Red Hood. Shazam had died once and came back.


Batman got out of the Batwing and helped Barbra get out of it. Barbra went to a couch made out of Kryptonian material and sat down on it. Bruce went to go talk to Shazam.


"Billy, I need to ask you something." Bruce stated.


"Sure what is it?" Shazam asked.


"How did you manage to come back from the dead?" Bruce asked.


"Well since I died in my immortal form, my adult form, I was able to be brought back by the magic bestowed in myself and Mary. The only problem with that was we'd be two spirits living in two bodies that had been converged." Shazam stated.


"What if you weren't in your immortal form, would you have been able to come back?" Bruce asked.


"I don't the answer to that Bruce, why?" Shazam asked.


Bruce slammed Shazam against a wall. "Bruce!" Barbra yelled across the room.


"You have to know something." Bruce yelled when he was holding Shazam against the wall. Then Bruce looked down and sighed. After he released Shazam. "I'm sorry."

"If a mortal human can come back to life. I was listening from the other room." Superman said he pointed to his ear, "I've got Superhuman hearing, remember?"


"Answer the question." Bruce commanded. "You were dead once, you have to know something."


"I wasn't dead, I was in a deep coma. The short answer is no. There was a place where I was when I was in the coma. It wasn't Heaven or hell." Superman stated. "I had no idea what it was but there were normal human beings there trying to escape but they couldn't not one did, ever. Somehow I could though." Batman sighed deeply. "What is this about Bruce?"


"I- I don't exactly know."
