Fans of DC Comics and the Bat-Family are in for a wild ride with the latest installment of DC vs. Vampires: World War V. This action-packed series is already known for having major twists and the deaths of many beloved characters and continues with the latest issue, #3.

Batwoman's Sacrifice

In a shocking turn of events, Batwoman (Kate Kane) makes the ultimate sacrifice to save Robin (Damian Wayne). This new story from Matthew Rosenberg and Otto Schmidt really shows off just how powerful and intense the drama and storyline can be for this incredible series!

The latest issue picks up right where the last issue left off: A three-way battle continues. A battle between vampires, the human resistance fighters and the vampire guerrillas who were organized and are led by Damian Wayne. Things got intense as Damian Wayne decided to kill the vampire Queen Barbara Gordon ( Batgirl). Then the conflict heightened, the tension reaching epic levels as Wonder Woman (who is seeking revenge after Talia al Ghul's death in Issue #2), attacked Alfred Pennyworth. Things continue to get worse, especially for Batwoman!

A Heartbreaking Moment:

Batwoman, now vampiric herself (from previous issues of this series), tries to save Damian Wayne from Black Adam, Raven and Cassie Sandsmark, ( Wonder Girl). This is going to create even more tension and increase the pressure of the battle as Damian Wayne will get captured. Batwoman springs into action with the help of a special, unexpected trick: using a UV flashbang.

While she successfully helps save Damian and manages to create more distance from those attacking Robin, her selfless act is not going to go unnoticed!

She used the full force of the flashbang
It creates a horrific consequence- turning her body into ash!

It seems like Damian isn't going to just watch his companion, someone who is constantly at his side. Get ready as his experience will cause everyone a level of heartbreaking, emotionally difficult moments that make her sacrifice an incredibly powerful piece of storytelling!

This is the second instance in this particular storyline! It really showcases just how loyal these Bat-Family members are, that this isn't a first, or a last, as it will be difficult for those following "DC vs. Vampires: World War V" to take. Red Hood (Jason Todd) made an incredibly powerful move during "DC vs. Vampires" #6 to protect Damian.

A sacrifice that shows the powerful emotional impact
A scene that had the death of Batman, this starts a tragic sequence that had Nightwing transform Robin, which resulted in another death.
Then it created a need for action from Red Hood who did a phenomenal, unforgettable performance! The scene had a major battle where Red Hood fought off Nightwing and Wonder Woman.
Red Hood is ultimately taken as well. The way Red Hood saved his life had another dark moment-being shot and killed. An intense battle between Nightwing, Wonder Woman and Red Hood resulted in the end of the series. This ultimately gave him an equally heart-wrenching and unforgettable death! It helped shape this epic storytelling that is just getting started.

That makes Batwoman's sacrifice a pivotal moment. And another big loss for those of us who have followed this remarkable series since its initial launch.

A High Death Toll:

DC vs. Vampires: World War V is already legendary with the number of people who have already passed away! That makes this story truly exciting! As you are getting an insane death toll. One of the most iconic series will now only feature eight key characters from "Bat-Clan".

This comes close to being among one of the largest amounts of Bat-Family member deaths in DC history, and is just behind "DCeased". Which has ten character deaths! There are at least nine remaining issues and "DCeased" could be surpassed, if the story doesn't stray far too from what's happening at the current stage! That makes things quite compelling.

Those that fell, sadly and tragically. include Batman (Bruce Wayne), Red Robin (Tim Drake), Red Hood (Jason Todd), Signal (Duke Thomas), Catwoman (Selina Kyle), Nightwing (Dick Grayson), Batgirl (Barbara Gordon) and Batwoman (Kate Kane).

However, there's still hope for many key members of this powerful series. And if they haven't fallen! That also means they might just join Batwoman as this issue concludes with the shocking news!

Those that continue to survive are Batwing (Luke Fox), Huntress (Helena Bertinelli), Spoiler (Stephanie Brown), Alfred Pennyworth, Robin (Damian Wayne), and Black Bat (Cassandra Cain).

For DC Comics fans who have followed this series and many of these characters through so many different Comics, its certainly going to be an intense and unforgettable ride as this special series progresses.

It appears there's going to be a lot more to unfold. For all you Batman fans. Get ready to tune in! You've had quite a journey and now this looks like one for the books.

For anyone who's ready for even more adventure make sure you check this out! "DC vs. Vampires: World War V #3" will have its next big showing!
