Batman to lose son Robin Posted: 27 Feb 2013 07:48 AM PST February 27, 2013 DC Comics' Batman Incorporated: RIP Robin, April 2013. – DC ComicsNEW YORK, Feb 27 – Batman may be able to save the world, but he'll lose his sidekick Robin – who in his current incarnation is his son – in the upcoming Batman Incorporated comic book series. DC Comics said the caped crusader's acrobatic young assistant, Batman alter ego Bruce Wayne's son Damian, will die in issue number eight. "This master theme of damaged and ruined families was nowhere more in evidence than in the creation of Damian, the first 'Son of Batman' to be acknowledged in the canon," series writer Grant Morrison said in a statement. "In many ways this has been Damian's story as much as it has been the story of Bruce Wayne and it's a story that had its end planned a long time ago – for what son could ever hope to replace a father like Batman, who never dies?" The good news for those who might miss Robin is that this is the comics universe and characters who are killed can easily return. Even a previous incarnation of Robin was killed and resurrected before. "You can never say never in a comic book," Morrison told the New York Post. "Batman will ultimately always have a partner." – AFP/Relaxnews

Best-selling French author Stephane Hessel dies at 95 Posted: 27 Feb 2013 01:51 AM PST February 27, 2013 Stephane Hessel, a former French resistance fighter, diplomat and author of the bestselling 'Time For Outrage!' – AFP picPARIS, Feb 27 – Best-selling French writer, veteran diplomat and concentration camp survivor Stephane Hessel has died at the age of 95, his wife announced today. Hessel, whose 2010 work "Time for Outrage" inspired the "Occupy Wall Street" movement which began in New York's financial district and spread worldwide, died overnight, Christiane Hessel-Chabry said. The German-born Hessel, who became a naturalised French citizen in 1939, was a prominent Resistance figure during World War II. He was arrested by the Gestapo and later moved to the Buchenwald and Dora concentration camps. After the end of the war, Hessel was involved in editing the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. He also took up the cause of illegal immigrants and championed the rights of the downtrodden. "Time for Outrage" sold more than 4.5 million copies in 35 countries. His best-selling work argues that the French need to again become outraged like those who participated in the Resistance under General Charles De Gaulle during World War II. His reasons for personal outrage included the growing chasm between the haves and have-nots, France's treatment of its illegal immigrants and the abuse of the environment. – AFP/Relaxnews
