The Art of Betty & Veronica

This showed up at my LCS this week. I didn't pre-order it and I don't even remember seeing it solicited. It was in shrink-wrap so I couldn't look at it, but it is compiled by Craig Yoe, which is a huge plus. Looking online, I see it was originally re

Who knows that Bruce Wayne is Batman in Current Continuity?

Bruce Wayne - I am making the bold assumption that Bruce knows that he is Batman.
