    Hmmm, cleaver marketing for BATMAN #676? :-P

    Heh. I thought it was either tied to that or the Dark Knight viral marketing campaign when I first saw it.

    I wonder if that’s actually someone’s last name… Could be either of the marketing ploys the first two people have mentioned though. Weird…

    Batman is a legitimate surname; it’s a variation of Bateman (or maybe vice versa).

    i hope newsarama posts my grave on the internet for comics fans to speculate over, that’d be awesome

    If the person buried ahed of Batman was Stark instead of Starkweather, that would be plain bizarre . It would seem as though this was where billionaire crimefighters claim their final resting spots.

    He’s also buried in the small town of Sullivan, Illinois. Saw a stone just like that at my great uncle’s funeral several years ago…

    I’m looking for a B. Atman. B. Atman? That’s a Moe’s Tavern prank call waiting to happen.

    The one behind BATMAN looks like BANNER to me.

    It should have “Final Crisis 6″ carved in at the bottom, plus RIP added.
