Welcome to General, Gotham City’s tier one trauma center.
Power is out, fires are burning, transpo is shot, and the calls just keep coming. There are more patients than beds, half presenting with respiratory complications, the other half suffering hallucinogenic psychotic episodes.

For Dr. Ava Dastur and the men and women working at General, it’s a Tuesday.
DC Comics is pleased to introduce you to the staff of Gotham General. No capes, no costumes, and don’t call them heroes—this is their job.

Gotham City’s new mayor, Pamela Isley, deserted by her allies both political and arcane, is about to make a last-ditch power play that will leave Gotham decimated by daylight. Having already declared war on the Bat-Family and flooded the streets with his private, paramilitarized police army, Police Commissioner Vandal Savage sees an opportunity to solve two problems at once.

As the sun goes down and Gotham loses power, Matt Fraction (Batman), G. Willow Wilson (Poison Ivy), Giuseppe Camuncoli (Absolute Evil), and Cliff Rathburn (The Walking Dead) deliver an unforgettable opening chapter that shows the only thing scarier than the night just might be the morning sun…

From the endlessly creative minds of comics legends Grant Morrison (52, All-Star Superman, We3, New X-Men) and Andy Kubert (Adam Strange, 1602, X-Men) comes a startling new chapter in the life of Gotham’s Dark Knight. The mysterious Talia, daughter of the archvillain Ra’s al Ghul and Batman’s onetime love, returns with a boy named Damian and claims the child is Batman’s son. Stunned, the Dark Knight takes the child in, but the boy, raised among the brutal dictates of the League of Assassins, has his own agenda. Soon both Tim Drake, Bruce Wayne’s newly adopted heir, and Alfred, Wayne’s faithful butler, find themselves targets of this genetically perfect and very angry child. Is Damian really just a young, misguided boy trying to prove himself to his father— or have long years of Talia’s indoctrination left him an operative solely designed to destroy the Batman? Under the masterly skills of Morrison and Kubert, Batman & Son is one of the most intriguing Batman tales ever told. It also features the artwork of John VanFleet (Batman: The Chalice) in a unique story highlighting the Joker.

This review contains spoilers
As Batgirl #14 begins, Cassandra sees Kalden and saunters forth to kill him. Tenji intercepts, snapping her out of her vengeance-laden headspace, unsure of what’s real and what isn’t.
Angel Breaker is leading point on locating and destroying the poppies. Cass notices that Aruna has disappeared, and quickly finds her gathering poppy seeds for herself to bring back to Nyssa. Enraged by the hypocrisy of Nyssa’s goals, the two begin scrapping, while Jaya and Tenji are discovered by the guards. Angel Breaker manages to set fire to the poppies, and explosions burst all throughout the area. As Batgirl races to rescue her friends, she sees visions of Shiva haunt her decisions and taunting her character.
As our heroes flee, Kalden reports to an unknown leader upon a throne, informing him that they allowed Batgirl and the others to believe their mission was a success, which will lead to the fall of Samsara.
Analysis
First and foremost, big props to Stephen Segovia for the solid artwork in Batgirl #14. He had our girl looking slick throughout the issue, especially when she donned her Batgirl mask. The action was clear and expressive, and had more impact that Miayazawa’s has displayed in the past year. Segovia is a great fit for this book.
As for the writing, I’m enjoying the focus back on Cass’ mentality, her motives and her heroism. Seeing the (predictable) hypocrisies and betrayal of Nyssa and having a crisis of conscious is right at home with her inner conflicts all throughout the book. It was also nice of her to go from yearning revenge to being stalwart in doing right by the people of the Unburied, noticing the women and children and taking into account their actions towards those innocent people. Tate Brombal is not the best writer who’s ever written Cassandra, but he understands her completely, and in a book with a crowded supporting cast, he makes her stand out above the rest.
Batgirl #14 is a decent issue, but one of my larger problems from the first year of the series crept back to the forefront of my annoyance – the dialogue. Everyone sounds the same in speaking with this flowery, portentous manner that just sounds fake coming out of anyone not one hundred years old. Jaya calls Aruna “Shape Changer”, Aruna calls Batgirl “Daughter of the Bat”, and later Jaya “Healer” (that last one, I don’t even get why). It all reeks of placeholder dialogue for character who deserve better characterization than this. It feels like bog-standard martial arts dialogue from the mid-20th century, and while Batgirl herself is spared most of this rubbish, everyone else sounds the same. Angel Breaker, less so because she’s annoyed and separated from the rest, but along with members of The Unburied, it’s like I’m reading a script from something that would play on the Hi-Yah streaming channel.
It’s a problem of characterization. We don’t really know much about Jaya or Angel Breaker or even Aruna after the last couple of issues. This is Brombal’s time to define them better during this mission, but they don’t stand out. It’s also problematic for Tenji, who isn’t more than the young, optimistic fighter who continually sucks in getting into trouble. What stopped me in my tracks however was his jag on heroes killing people. I don’t disagree that they shouldn’t, but we don’t know that to be his belief system. Can it be inferred as Bronze Tiger raised him away from Shiva? Sure, but Shiva would of course try to persuade him otherwise. Is there none of that conflict of upbringing in him, a’la Damian Wayne?
Ultimately, Batgirl #14 is still alright, but I’m looking forward to Cass being free of these tagalongs and either going back to Gotham or being by herself for a while. I feel this book is threatening to kill reader’s investment because I am not caring about Samsara or Aruna or even Tenji enough to care whether or not it’s destroyed – because we just learned of its existence two months ago! We’re reading this book about Cass, not about new characters and locales. None of these new elements have earned our (or my) investment or interest beyond how Cass feels about them, and for the most part she doesn’t feel much.

Introducing Gotham’s most eligible bachelorettes…for at least a little while longer! First, there’s Catwoman, who’s been playing cat and mouse with her two favorite boy toys—Bruce Wayne and the Dark Knight himself, Batman. Next up? Harley Quinn, who’s recently single and now committed only to her hot girl era. Of course, there’s also Poison Ivy, who just wants to enjoy her solitude…as long as her best friend Harley’s there to enjoy it with her. And then there’s the new girl, Black Canary, who’s engaged to the love of her life, Green Arrow—but the closer they get to the wedding day, the more it feels like they might not be so written in the stars after all.
But these four fabulous women aren’t meeting to discuss any of that. At least, not willingly. There’s a killer on the loose in Gotham City—a killer of women. And when Black Canary realizes stopping the murders requires more criminal company than she’s used to keeping, she finds herself reluctantly teaming up with the infamous Gotham City Sirens for the hunt. Easier said than done when the four of them can barely make it through one lousy brunch… Fan-favorite writer Tini Howard (Catwoman, Harley Quinn) teams with superstar artist Babs Tarr (Batgirl) to bring you the sexiest and most scintillating DC Black Label series yet!

Batman: Dark Patterns is a series of four self-contained, street-level mysteries that delve into the early days of Batman’s role in Gotham City and his healing presence within its streets.
This grounded, mystery-driven narrative evokes the rich tone and style of beloved classics such as Batman: Year One, Batman: The Long Halloween, and Batman: Hush. Penned by the talented Dan Watters and brought to life through the striking artistry of Hayden Sherman, each three-part story stands alone as a gripping detective case, shedding light on the trauma and resilience of Gotham’s citizens and its urban landscape.
The series masterfully underscores Batman’s dual identity as a methodical sleuth and a shadowy beacon of hope, skillfully steering clear of cosmic or supernatural distractions. This intentional focus reassures readers of a steadfast commitment to a more authentic, detective-driven experience, highlighting relatable mysteries that brilliantly showcase the Dark Knight as a healer cloaked in darkness.

The original Teen Titans always stood in the shadows of their larger-than-life mentors— young heroes like Robin, Wonder Girl, and Kid Flash saw plenty of action, but it was Batman, Wonder Woman, and the Flash who ultimately called the shots. All that changed, however, with the arrival of the New Teen Titans in 1980—and the lives of DC’s adolescent adventurers would never be the same! Crafted by comics legends Marv Wolfman and George Pérez, this all-new super-team featured greater dangers, fiercer emotions, and more tangled relationships than any that had come before. The Titans’ celebrated stories have ensured that the names of Starfire, Cyborg, Raven, and the Changeling will be passed down through history alongside those famous aliases employed by Dick Grayson, Donna Troy, and Wally West. New Teen Titans Omnibus Vol. 2 collects issues #21-41 of the classic series, together with its first two annuals and the special crossover issue Batman and the Outsiders #5, and includes an introductory piece from Wolfman.

The post December 2025 TBU DC Solicitations appeared first on The Batman Universe.
The new series, Batman/Static: Beyond, will be a part of the Elseworlds imprint with the first issue releasing in NovemberDC Comics announced a new limited series, Batman/Static: Beyond, a six-issue comic book story launching this fall under its DC Elseworlds imprint. The series will pair acclaimed writer Evan Narcisse with artist Nikolas Draper-Ivey. Batman/Static: Beyond #1 is set to launch on November 12, 2025.
This futuristic team-up unites two of DC’s most dynamic heroes: Terry McGinnis, the guardian of Neo-Gotham known to many as Batman (Beyond), and Virgil Hawkins, aka Static, the architect of Dakota City’s future. Both characters, renowned for being breakout animated stars, embark on a high-stakes mission that could reshape Earth’s place in the cosmos.
In Batman/Static: Beyond #1, Terry McGinnis patrols the streets of Neo-Gotham while Virgil Hawkins pioneers a technological revolution with the launch of the Q-Wave Energy Grid. As Earth prepares itself to join the Cooperative, an interplanetary partnership, the Justice League stands ready. But when a global blackout occurs, the planet’s future is at risk. It’s up to Static and Batman Beyond to become an unlikely duo to save the world before it’s too late.
Writer Evan Narcisse expressed his excitement about exploring the dynamic between the two heroes: “I loved the dynamic Nik set up between Static and Batman in the Milestone 30th Anniversary Special where these characters first teamed up with each other, and the most exciting part of this new project has been exploring how different Terry and Virgil are from each other.”
Enjoy this preview of the covers for Batman/Static: Beyond #1, courtesy of DC Comics:
Prev1of4NextArtist Nikolas Draper-Ivey added, “This story is intended to be a commentary on our overreliance on technology and the imminent dangers becoming complacent and too comfortable using AI to substitute our own imagination and human ingenuity.”
Draper-Ivey further emphasized, “we now use our watches to find our phones, we use our phones to connect to everything else. We don’t rely on our own memories. We rely on technology to remember for us. That deeply concerns me. I worry that we are getting to a point where if all these things were to be suddenly taken away from us in an instant—at the rate we’re going now, humanity will be at a huge disadvantage.”
This isn’t the first time the duo appeared together. Back in 2023, Draper-Ivey wrote and drew a story involving the two where the elder Bruce Wayne reached out to the grown Virgil Hawkins to give him a hand in calming his new, maverick Batman. The tone between Terry and Virgil that appeared in “Static Beyond” in 2023 will be present in Batman/Static: Beyond.
Narcisse further elaborated on the characters’ dynamics:
“Static is a former teen hero who grew up to take on even more responsibility for his city and the larger world, while Terry is still figuring out how to do those things in his own way. Terry’s still a high school student but he’s also got the weight of the Batman mantle and the expectations that come with it as key parts of his life now.
As an adult member of the Justice League, Virgil’s at a different part of his journey. But he’s driven by an adolescence where systemic injustice changed what it meant to live in his hometown of Dakota. Their approaches to making the world a safer, more just place are extremely different. That difference energizes the big question they have to deal with: can they learn to work together during a critical moment when everything they’ve taken for granted has fallen apart?”
Evan Narcisse
Batman/Static: Beyond #1 releases on November 12, 2025, and will feature a main cover by Draper-Ivey, retailing for $4.99 in the US. Variant cardstock covers will be available for $5.99 and are drawn by Dustin Nguyen, Rahzzah, and a 1:25 incentive variant by Denys Cowan and Ho Che Anderson. Nguyen’s cover will also be released as a foil variant. The series will run for six issues, with a collected edition scheduled for release on August 4, 2026.

One year after defeating The Joker, Harley is still hunting serial killers—just not in the city she used to protect. She burned her association with the GCPD and Lt. Jim Gordon and now works with vigilantes to seek a very different kind of justice.
But when Gotham headlines about a new series of grisly crime scenes lead to speculation that her nemesis is somehow escaping Arkham to continue his murder spree, she feels compelled to return. Jonathan Crane, former classmate and current head of Arkham Asylum, assures her that The Joker is securely locked in his cell…yet the women of Gotham are still being stalked by a killer who is using their corpses to make art.
Unwilling to return to the police precinct and its regulations, Harley forms an alliance with some unlikely conspirators, and these women work to save the people of Gotham City.
New York Times #1 bestseller Kami Garcia (writer of the Teen Titans series), Mico Suayan (Knight Terrors: Action Comics), and Jason Badower (Wonder Woman ’77) return to the gritty, terrifying version of Gotham they explored in the Bram Stoker Award-nominated Joker/Harley: Criminal Sanity to delve into the twisted mind of a killer, his disciple, and the women who will take them down!

Amanda Waller’s bid for control and ultimate power has failed, and though Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and the rest of the DC Universe’s heroes stand triumphant, they have learned a valuable lesson: they are better together than apart.
Forming a new Justice League Unlimited, the heroes usher in a new era of unity just in time to face a returned, very different Darkseid. As the first blows land against the Lord of Apokolips, shock waves ripple across the DC Universe and shake the very nature of its reality to the core. As the dust settles from this titanic battle, Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and the League itself find themselves at new beginnings…
Collects Absolute Power #4, DC ALL IN Special #1, Justice League Unlimited #1, Batman #153, Wonder Woman #14, and Superman #19.

I’ve been holding in all my very worst bits of bubble guts for the last 32 years, and it’s all been leading up to this epic expulsion! Your nose will never be the same! You’ll gag, you’ll cry, you’ll feel things you ain’t never felt before! This fine publication is a celebration of all things passed, pre-scent, and toot-ure. Sequential art’s place in the annals of history is about to change with the release of the Harley Quinn Fartacular: Silent Butt Deadly, a comic that promises to have the highest concentration of gas per page (GPP) ever committed to print. Emphasis on committed, because everyone who worked on this comic is getting thrown into Dr. Fartley’s Home for No-Good Gassy Gals ’n’ Guys. Read the comic that Abraham Lincoln called “a joy from fart to finish” moments before he died!

Batman: Dark Patterns will be written by Dan Watters with art by Hayden Sherman and will focus on Batman’s early career.DC Comics announced today (September 20) a new Batman mini-series. Batman: Dark Patterns will be written by writer Dan Watters and will be drawn by artist Hayden Sherman. The new mini-series will focus on Batman’s early career as Gotham City’s vigilante protector as he attempts to solve four mysterious cases plaguing the city.
From the press release:
Batman: Dark Patterns will be told as a series of four self-contained, street level, evergreen Batman mysteries exploring the early days of Batman’s place within Gotham City and his healing presence within its streets.
The first case and story arc, “We Are Wounded,” involves a series of sickeningly gruesome murders sending shock waves through Gotham City. Are these the random works of a serial killer, or is there something more sinister at play? Across these first three issues of Batman: Dark Patterns, Batman attempts to get to the bottom of the mystery before any more victims are claimed.
“I love the strangeness of Batman. A man dressed as a huge, gothic bat, solving crimes in a hostile city of black magicians, mad scientists, and superstitious, cowardly criminals,” Watters said in the press release. “I’ve always wanted to write a series of mystery stories that would home in on that aspect of the character- a dweller in the shadows of Gotham’s towering, dilapidated spires. After watching The Batman, this desire was reaffirmed.”
DC states that Batman: Dark Patterns will be presented in the tradition of famous Batman titles such as Year One, The Long Halloween, and Dark Victory.
Batman: Dark Patterns #1 will have a main cover drawn by Hayden Sherman. Stevan Subic will draw a variant cover for the first issue. Check them out below along with a sample of interior art from artist Hayden Sherman and colorist Tríona Farrell.

The new Two-Face series will be written by writer-artist Christian Ward with art by Fábio Veras and will be released in December.Fans of Harvey Dent rejoice! DC Comics announced today (September 19) a new Two-Face series as a part of the publisher’s new All In initiative. The new limited series will be written by writer-artist Christian Ward and will be drawn by artist Fábio Veras. It should be noted that as the new series is a part of the All In initiative, it is not in the same universe as Ward’s Batman: City of Madness mini series.
From the press release:
After years of internal conflict, both halves of Harvey Dent have reached an uneasy peace. In DC’s new Two-Faceseries, Harvey uses his skills as an attorney to resolve the conflicts of Gotham’s weirdest and most dangerous criminals, starting with Victor Zsasz. When Zsasz is accused of murdering a fellow member of Gotham’s underworld contingent, who better to prove a criminal’s innocence than someone who’s been on both sides of the law?
“I couldn’t be more excited to be, or prouder, to be writing Two-Face’s very first solo series,” Ward stated in the press release. “Two-Face is without any hesitation not just my favourite Batman villain but my favourite character in all of Gotham, and I’m thrilled to be taking him, together with superstar artist in the making Fábio Veras and the legends that are colourist Ivan Plascencia and letterer Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou, to some wild places you might not be expecting.”
Two-Face #1 will have a main cover drawn by Baldemar Rivas. Variant covers will come from Christian Ward, Leonardo Romero, and Chris Samnee. Check them out below along with a sample of interior art from artist Fábio Veras and colorist Ivan Plascencia.

DC Comics announced today (August 15th) a new comic book series which sees the return of a much-beloved character. Batman – Santa Claus: Silent Knight Returns, written by Jeff Parker with art by Lukas Ketner, will be coming to comic book shops everywhere and digitally beginning in November. It will release every Wednesday in the five weeks leading up to Christmas.
In the upcoming series, horrors haunt the Christmas season as life-drained bodies litter the countryside, each marked with a strange symbol. The Justice League responds—but it’s a trap! The heroes are pulled from our world, but not before Batman helps Robin escape. Now Damian Wayne must seek out Zatanna and the one and only Santa Claus if there’s any hope of saving their friends and family.
“I was blown away at how well last year’s SILENT KNIGHT series was received, readers really responded to us going full tilt with Norse-mythos Santa in the DCU,” said Parker in the press release. “We followed the old tradition of telling ghost stories at Christmas. Then to be asked if I wanted to do another one AND have an extra issue? That was the Happy New Year.”
“It’s still unclear to me whether Batman will be speed-skating in the story. I may have been heavy-handed with the Xmas flavor in my audition sketches; it was meant to show how interested I was in doing THIS story specifically. I loved the first series, and Jeff was dangling an Etrigan-shaped carrot.”
Lukas Ketner
Batman – Santa Claus: Silent Knight Returns #1 will have a main cover by Bernard Chang and variant covers by Dan Mora, Kevin Wada, and Erica Henderson. Collectors can also kickstart the holidays with a special gift-wrapped (polybagged), evergreen-scented variant cover by Dan Hipp! Check them out below.

Robin isn’t just a sidekick, he’s a star. Or he will be, once the people who produce reality TV shows see him in action! He can do it all: lead a team! decorate a secret lair! bake a cake that looks like a dangerous weapon! All he needs is a lucky break.
When his teammates break out before he does, his ego takes a beating. Without a team to lead, can he save Jump City all on his own? Nope, because he doesn’t even want to try! Maybe if they followed him on social media? But even the Hive has more followers than he does.
ChrisCross, Sara Alfageeh, Marguerite Sauvage, and Christopher Uminga join in on the fun, sharing important moments in the Titans’ TV careers!

Batman and Robin: Year One with bring writer Mark Waid and artist Chris Samnee
For fans of Batman / Superman: World’s Finest and the 2022 event Batman vs. Robin, legendary comic writer Mark Waid is teaming up with artist and co-plotter Chris Samnee for Batman and Robin: Year One. This 12-issue series is set to debut on October 16, 2024. Waid and Samnee are co-plotting the storyline, with Waid writing and Samnee penciling and creating the main cover for Batman and Robin: Year One #1. Mat Lopes will provide colors, and Clayton Cowles will deliver letters.
From the press release:
In Batman and Robin: Year One, while Bruce Wayne adjusts to the realities of adopting orphan Dick Grayson, a mysterious new crime boss called the General has come to Gotham to claim the city by disrupting and destroying its other mobs. But what is his connection to Two-Face? Batman and his new sidekick, Robin, are out for answers, but it’ll take everything they have to navigate both sides of their relationship as father and son and dynamic duo, with Dick Grayson’s present and future hanging in the balance!
Batman and Robin: Year One #1 will also have variant covers by Mikel Janín and Matteo Scalera, with incentive variants by Karl Kerschl (1:25), and Lee Weeks (1:50). DC provided a first look at these covers, which you can preorder at your local comic shop.

Check them out below:
“While Batman and Robin are the stars of this tale and get most of the panel time, at its heart, this isn’t a Batman/Robin story, it’s a Bruce/Dick story,” said Mark Waid. “It takes place only a month or two after Bruce adopted Dick, and it’s sinking in for Bruce that he has no idea how to be a father to a kid that age. He has no role model—his own father was long dead by the time he was Dick’s age. Nothing he’s ever done has prepared him for this, and Alfred—wise as he is—doesn’t have much experience here either.”
“Dick is everything Bruce is not—impetuous, flamboyant, reckless,” said Chris Samnee. “But he’s also precise; he can stick a landing. He’ll take orders when they make sense to him, but he’s keen to improvise, testing his role within the Dynamic Duo. The first pages you’ll see will showcase how they’ll be acting, and reacting, as they adventure out into Gotham City on patrol together. We’re so excited for this story to finally be told.”

Marv Wolfman’s Appearance at WonderCon Reflected on the Decision to Change Dick Grayson ForeverNightwing #113 (Legacy #300) variant cover by Dan Mora (Image Credit: DC Comics)
The Boy Wonder has come a long way.
This week DC Comics will publish Nightwing #300, an impressive milestone for Batman’s former partner. True, this number was achieved with some relaunches and creative math, but it’s still an impressive feat.
As we celebrate Nightwing’s 300th issue, it’s hard not to reflect on the character’s legacy. Just ask Marv Wolfman. Forty years ago, Wolfman (along with his collaborator George Perez) did the unthinkable and permanently transformed one of DC’s most iconic characters. Since his debut in 1940’s Detective Comics #38, Robin had been one of the most iconic characters in DC’s landscape.
Then everything changed.
Speaking to a panel at WonderCon, Wolfman reflected on Dick Grayson’s tenure as Nightwing, giving the audience an interesting statistic. “Let me start by saying something that will blow your mind. In four years…just four years…Dick Grayson will be Nightwing longer than he was Robin,” Wolfman said.
The transformation happened in the pages of New Teen Titans, DC’s best-selling re-imagining of the superhero team. From its inception, Wolfman and Perez saw New Teen Titans as a more mature title. “Teen Titans was not a book about 12-year-olds, 13-year-olds, or 14-year-olds, like the previous versions of Titans were. In my mind they were 18, 19, and even 20. That’s why we eventually took off the word ‘Teen.’ It was important that all the characters be older because I wanted to write about real emotions and real character stuff. We had Robin, and Robin was no longer in the Batman book at that particular point. I really hated the whole concept of a 19-year-old wearing those silly green shorts. It just looked all wrong to me.”
Marv Wolfman (Image Credit: Comic-Con International)
“At the same time, the Batman editor wanted Robin back. They wanted to make him young again. Of course, I had some power there because Titans was selling so well. And I said, ‘I don’t really want that, but here’s an idea. Why don’t you take Robin? I don’t care about Robin in the slightest. I want Dick Grayson, I want that character. I want the adult character. I want the character one year shy of being 20 or 21. And that leaves you to come up with a new Robin, and to advertise to the fans, and let them be part of something that’s never happened before, which is the kid partner becomes the adult hero.’ They saw that it was a positive for both of us,” Wolfman continued.
“I would get Dick Grayson, who was already the leader of the Titans, but now I can really make him the age he should be. George (Perez) just loved the idea and designed the Nightwing costume.”
Of course, this would also lead to the creation of Jason Todd. In some ways, you can think Marv Wolfman for that.
According to Wolfman, Nightwing almost wasn’t his name. “We went through a million names on the character. I wasn’t going to do Nightwing originally. It was one of the first thoughts that we had, but because Nightwing was the name of a character in the Superman book, he was a Kryptonian character, Nightwing and Flamebird. And finally, when there’s no Batman, he actually fits it perfectly on all ways, and I had to come up with a declaration saying I’ve been influenced by Batman and Superman, and this is an honor to both of them.”
Did Marv Wolfman and DC editorial know the history they were making in that meeting 40 years ago? Did they know that discussion would lead to the creation of Jason Todd, and Nightwing’s iconic legacy? It’s hard to imagine how different the DC Universe would be if that meeting hadn’t happened.

At C2E2 this year, while hanging out at Cara McGee’s (Black Canary: Ignite) table, I had the great pleasure of talking with artist Suzi Blake, currently one of the background artists on Batman: Wayne Family Adventures! Suzi revealed a lot of fascinating information about the production process and creators behind the beloved smash hit webtoon.
After joining the art team for episode 12, she and the other artist, Lan Ma, mostly alternate episodes. For the character-focused two-part episode arcs, the creative team will often, but not always, try to schedule production so that a single background artist can do both episodes in a row, but sometimes time and publication requirements do not allow this. In cases where a two-part story is split between the two background artists, Suzi mentioned that there’s a lot of attention paid to how a particular room or space, like the Batcave, is drawn and rendered so that consistency is maintained.
Some of the fascinating behind-the-scenes details discussed included the roughly one-week production time for background art per episode. With the two-month break between season one and season two, the art teams continued production to get ahead of the publication schedule. In general, the creators are a couple of months ahead of the most recent paywalled episodes on the app. Additionally, though the general production pipeline is the script to layouts to character inks to the background art, sometimes the background artists produce the background art before the character inks and colors, which can allow the coloring of the characters to be integrated deeply into the overall strip! Some upcoming issues starring Kate Kane as Batwoman followed this less common production pipeline and should be a great treat both for their art and for fans of the current Batwoman!
We chatted a bit about the upcoming release of the first 25 episodes of Batman: Wayne Family Adventures as a printed book. The whole team is very excited and very interested to see how the vertical phone/scrolling formatted episodes will be printed out to make visual sense in a physical, page-space-limited format!
Another topic that arose with Suzi Blake was the three crossover episodes that Batman: Wayne Family Adventures has done with the other DC webtoons – Vixen, Red Hood: Outlaws, and Zatanna & the Ripper. There wasn’t a direct collaboration with the other art teams, but there was a lot of fun in transferring the character designs between series! Though season 2 isn’t over for quite a bit, Suzi is very hopeful for a season 3 – as are we! She mentioned that her favorite character is Nightwing and that she loves putting in “Sailor Moon” details like sparkles and star flashes when he shows up in costume (as seen in episode 22).
Suzi also revealed a really awesome detail that she spent hours researching the Batman suits featured in Bruce’s closet for episode 77. That level of dedication really shows that the team behind Batman: Wayne Family Adventures is comprised of fans who love the rich history of Batman and his whole family, from the serious to the delightfully silly. Every episode shows that dedication as well as excellent craftsmanship, from the witty and warm writing to the excellent character art and, of course, the wonderful backgrounds created by Suzi! Here’s to many more years of great Batman: Wayne Family Adventures!

Iron Studios has released details for their latest Legacy Replica statue, which features Catwoman from Batman Returns.

The statue is priced starting at $900 and is expected to ship between April and June 2024. You can preorder the statue directly from Iron Studios or from Sideshow Collectibles.
Iron Studios Batman Returns Catwoman Legacy Replica Statue
Iron Studios is proud to announce the latest from the Legacy Replica 1:4 line – Catwoman! This DC Collectible Catwoman Statue is limited edition and based on the references from Batman Returns.
With a captivating smile, and a deep and seductive look, the mysterious and unpredictable villain comfortably sits over the statue in the shape of a cat’s head, a symbol, and a logo, on top of the building of Shreck’s department store, ironically the place where she transformed.
Dressed in her memorable skintight black leather jumpsuit and holding her whip, a weapon she wields with impressive dexterity, she plans her vengeance against her former boss and torturer as a Christmas gift. Over a base reminding the roof of the largest shopping center in Gotham City, Sideshow and Iron Studios present the Catwoman – Batman Returns – Legacy Replica 1:4 Statue, with the feline femme fatale most beloved by fans of Batman’s universe, in her portrayal in the classic film Batman Returns from 1992, directed by Tim Burton.
As a secretary, while she was inspecting the files of the powerful and ruthless businessperson Max Shreck, Selina Kyle inadvertently discovered the plans of a conspiracy to drain and store the electric power of Gotham using a new power plant, putting Gotham under total control of Shreck. Upon realizing that his secretary discovered such plans, he confronted her, and, although Selina swore to him that she would keep it a secret, he pushed her through the window of his commercial building to silence her, but her fall was broken by many awnings on the side of the building, causing only a concussion. Awakened by many cats on the street after passing out, she returned home shocked, where she then suffered a psychotic breakdown, sewing a homemade costume in preparation for her vengeance against Shreck, taking on the identity of the villain and sometimes anti-hero, Catwoman. One of the most famous characters in comic books and among the main characters in
Batman’s universe, Catwoman is present in almost all the adaptations of the hero. Brave, adventurous, and cunning, she always had a troubled romantic relationship with the Dark Knight. Embodying an impressive resemblance to actress Michelle Pfeiffer, and presented in detail for the first time by Iron studios on the grandiose Legacy Scale 1:4, the statue is a meticulous and faithful recreation of the character, created with maximum attention to the tiniest details on the textures, painting, and anatomy, to reproduce her image with great realism and fidelity, based on the original references.
DC Comics fans, don’t miss your chance to add the Catwoman 1:4 Legacy Replica Statue to your DC collection.

Overview: Tom King’s pastiche of neo-noir comes to its conclusion in Gotham City: Year One #6, as Gotham City’s mask falls off, leaving only the rot that will eventually create Batman.
Synopsis (spoilers ahead): As Gotham City: Year One #6 begins, Slam remembers why he became a cop, mostly just to have a job, as we see Gotham burning in the aftermath of baby Helen Wayne’s murder. He muses that he has been passing as white his entire life and discovers, as a young cop, his brother was killed under the pretext that “NWC” – a crude epithet meaning a black man “went crazy,” justifying police murder.
Slam arrives at Wayne Manor and beats down every Wayne employee in his path until he reaches Richard and Constance in the library. Richard tries to shoot him in a panic, and he and Slam fight. Constance tells a story as they fight about a cave in the Wayne grounds where Richard kept the trophies of his adultery. Constance reveals she knew Richard was behind the kidnapping and shoots him in the head. She tells Slam that she found Helen dead, drowned in her own vomit because the people Richard hired abandoned her. Her plan was to kill her husband and cause riots in revenge for the death of her daughter, then become a “hero” by using her influence to stop the violence over the radio and television. Constance says she’ll let Queenie go if Slam helps her. He agrees, only because he can’t kill her and save what remains of the city.
Slam helps Queenie leave Gotham, and the years pass. Wayne Enterprises grows rich on a chemical factory, but it pollutes the city, and Constance sells it to Ace. A few years later, Constance tries to get Slam to help her son Thomas “toughen up,” not be weak – but Slam refuses.
In the present, Slam finishes his story with Batman. Batman can’t understand the meaning, but Slam says it’s all just dead babies and brothers murdered by cops, murdering widows and men wearing bat ears.
Analysis: Tom King has said many times that Gotham City: Year One is based on classic noirs like Chinatown and the real crime of the Lindberg baby murder. I’ve said from the very first issue that, unlike a lot of King’s work, this feels remarkably lifeless as if King were simply painting a gloss of Batman history names over the absolute bog standard noir story, and sadly, the ending simply confirms this suspicion.
The final lines, “I know, I know, NWC. Well, @$%#, when you look at it all…what else are you going to do?” may be different from Robert Towne’s “Forget it, Jake. It’s Chinatown,” but the fundamental nihilism and even the cadence of King’s line clearly derives from Towne’s. And perhaps that’s the problem. Towne’s screenplay is taught as one of the most perfectly constructed screenplays of all filmmaking, and perhaps King thought that in imitation, he could capture some of the same prestige. But for all its craft, I find the tawdry cynicism, cheap nihilism, and reveling in the baseness of human nature profoundly tedious.
Similarly, what King tries to do with Gotham and Batman’s histories, tying everything exciting, fun, and noble, from the Batcave to Batman’s attempts to save little babies like his great-aunt Helen, to Wayne Enterprises, to everything nasty, bigoted, perverse, and treacherous – rings ultimately just as hollow to me as attempting to tie Batman’s crusade to save as many people as he can to Joker’s sadistic quest to cause the world the same pain he feels in The Killing Joke does.
For all his mastery, I don’t think Phil Hester’s artwork will be quite able to raise King’s script in the same way that Brian Bolland’s art raised Moore’s to an all-time bestseller for DC. I think this miniseries will be one of the lesser Year Ones, like Frank Miller’s Superman: Year One or Ivory Madison’s Huntress: Year One. The best Year One branded stories have always tended to distill the qualities of their central character into a moving, emotional story. Gotham City: Year One, on the other hand, attempts to find the central character of Gotham City, fails, and declares the attempt meaningless. Without the connection to the characters like Slam, Constance, Queenie, Richard, or any of the others King and Hester attempt to imbue with style and personality, the whole attempt is a brilliantly created but hollow monument to artistic influences gone past, with a veneer of modern racial politics to attempt to provide relevance.
Phil Hester’s final cover of Gotham City: Year One #6 ties together Slam in the past, Slam in the present, smoking in his hospital bed as Batman broods in the doorway, and a blood-red Batman tied up with a rope of pearls and revolver – all classic noir and Batman iconography. Nothing too standout, but it is executed very well, as expected from Hester. Jorge Molina goes full noir movie poster with his variant, showing a much less bulky looking Slam, glasses pure white with reflections similar to what we expect from Jim Gordon, with Constance and Richard Wayne behind him, the shadow of the Batman behind all three – very polished and moody, though Slam’s depiction feels really off from the rest of the book. Finally, Jason Masters provides the 1 in 25 incentive variant with a bandaged but still much slimmer Slam peering out of Venetian blinds as a bat flies past him, perhaps referencing the classic “Yes, father” scene – quite nice, but again, leaving Hester’s main cover is the clearest choice for aesthetic appeal.

“We’re all Batman. Except for you, punk.”
Sideshow presents the Batman Dark Nights: Death Metal Fine Art Print, a climactic DC Comics art print by artist Marco Mastrazzo.
Batman emerges from plumes of thick smoke, his hooked hands wielding a sharp scythe. The vigilante’s namesake creatures swarm around him in a dizzying cloud of claws and teeth. His leather cape billows alongside their veiny black wings, emphasizing the preternatural quality of that angular, apocalyptic armor. A grim expression and heroic stance indicate that this war is coming to a close, and Batman is prepared to fight for justice at any cost.

A key piece of the Batman utility belt arsenal, the Bat-Cuffs represent a symbol of Batman’s code of honor itself.

Paragon FX Group and Warner Brothers have partnered to bring you this 1:1 scale prop replica which will look as good on your shelf as it will on your utility belt. As with all our replicas, Team Paragon painstakingly researches all available reference prior to bringing a piece to life. Limited to only 500 units worldwide, these Bat-Cuffs are certain to become a cherished part of your collection.

XM Studios Dark Nights: Metal The Drowned 1:4 Scale Statue
“My water, my rules.”
XM Studios is excited to present our next 1/4 scale DC Premium Collectibles series statue, The Drowned (Dark Nights: Metal)! Each painstakingly handcrafted statue is individually hand-painted with XM’s famous quality finish, and comes in a bold, dynamic, and story-laden style. This is also the final statue from this comic line that XM will be producing.
Hailing from the Dark Multiverse, The Drowned is a counterpart of Batman who decided to augment her DNA after the Atlanteans of her world had flooded its surface upon the death of their queen. This very act gave her the ability to breathe underwater and to control it freely.
Donning a weathered naval-esque uniform with fraying edges, The Drowned stands upon a shipwreck’s broken debris amidst splashing waves while striking a commanding pose with Aquawoman’s trident in hand.
Pointing forward, she is seen belting out a menacing roar while accompanied by a fearsome sea creature imbued with spikes, large teeth, and scaly skin— one of many creatures from among the hybridized army that she commands.
She decided to join The Batman Who Laughs when told that the cause of their ongoing misery was the multiverse itself, of which her world was considered a lower-tiered one.
Background: Bryce Wayne, the Batwoman of gender-flipped Earth 11, is the Drowned. This character portrays a nightmare fusion of Batman with Aquaman. She has a deep hatred for the Atlanteans for their responsibility in the death of her beloved, Sylvester Kyle.
The statue features:
- Highly detailed sculpt featuring The Drowned
- 4 hand/arm switch-outs: 2 on the left and 2 on the right
- Crafted in Polystone
- Each painstakingly handcrafted statue is individually hand-painted with the highest possible quality finish

Making good on his promise, Batman gave Duke a new costume and code name, and Duke became known as the Signal. Unlike most of Batman’s Gotham City allies, Duke has discovered he is a metahuman with light-sensory powers in his eyes. Now he’s uniquely positioned to defend his city in a way that’s utterly unlike any other member of the Batman Family.
Product Features: Incredibly detailed 7” scale figure based on the DC Multiverse. Designed with Ultra Articulation with up to 22 moving parts for a full range of posing and play. Duke Thomas is featured in The Signal costume. The Signal comes with 2 Kamas and a base. Included collectible art card with figure photography on the front and character biography on the back.

McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Kingdom Come Armored Batman Action Figure
On Earth-22, over the last decade, many of the Super Heroes we know and love have sequestered themselves to their own areas of isolation, plunging the world into a chaotic power struggle amongst metahumans. Bruce Wayne, however, continues to operate in his Batcave, creating a militia of robots to monitor and maintain order in Gotham City. To suppress the forces Superman and the Super Heroes are amassing upon their return, he joins forces with Lex Luthor to create an army of their own. But Bruce always knows his allies’ and enemies’ true intentions, and when Luthor turns Billy Batson into a weapon, Bruce is there with his forces to aid in the fight.

XM Studios Batman: White Knight Harley Quinn 1:4 Scale Statue
We’re excited to present XM’s next ¼ scale DC Premium Collectibles statue, Stealth Ver. Harley Quinn (Batman: White Knight)! Each painstakingly handcrafted statue is individually hand-painted with XM’s famous quality finish, and comes in a bold, dynamic, and story-laden style.
Description: For this statue, we worked directly with the Batman: White Knight comics’ original writer and artist, Sean Murphy, to capture details reflective of his art style that fans of the comic series would appreciate. This is reflected in everything from the art deco style architecture that makes up the base of the statue to the details that make up her outfit.
Decked out in a leather trench coat that sways with the wind while sporting a pair of round glasses and differently coloured gloves, Harley is seen holding on to a wooden mallet while standing over a mysterious duffle bag filled with various peripherals.
This statue is a beautiful companion piece to XM’s statue of The Joker from the same comic series by Sean Murphy and comes with 2 head switch outs, one featuring Harley Quinn wearing a jester’s hat and one featuring her without the hat.
Collectors will be able to choose between 2 colour variants, a Regular Ver. featuring Harley in classic red and black colors and a Stealth Ver. where she is clad in grey and black.
Background: “Sometimes love can make people do crazy things. Other times? It drives them completely insane.”
The statue features:
- Two (2) heads: 1 featuring Harley Quinn wearing her signature jester’s hat and 1 featuring her without the hat
- One (1) highly detailed sculpt: 1 featuring Harley Quinn on the streets of Gotham
- Crafted in Polystone
- Each painstakingly handcrafted statue is individually hand-painted with the highest possible quality finish

An expert in the field of cryogenics, Victor led a relatively normal existence. He worked diligently but also fell in love with and eventually married a woman named Nora. Sadly, things took an unfortunate turn soon after. Nora became terminally ill, and to stop her degenerative disease from taking her life, Victor put her into suspended animation. The corporation funding Victor’s work shut down his experiments and, in the process, caused a horrible accident. The coolants did irreparable harm and made it impossible for him to survive above-freezing temperatures. To counteract this, Victor constructed a special, ultra-durable suit to keep his body alive and at the right temperature. He embraced his new persona and became Mr. Freeze.

Discovery Consumer Products and XM Studios to showcase the Batman universe in exciting new settings, each painstakingly handcrafted statue is individually hand-painted with XM’s famous quality finish. It comes in a bold, dynamic, and story-laden style.
Landing dynamically atop a patina-encrusted Koro (incense burner) with the grace of a well-trained and agile combatant, this art statue collectible sees Batwoman displaying unwavering determination as she strikes a battle-ready pose while getting ready to engage with a familiar foe.
Emerging from the Koro in varying shades of green as it unfurls, swirling and moving, are manifestations of Scarecrow’s machinations— weaponized toxins that induce intense fear within its victims. Strewn beside it amidst the rubble is a broken Suzu (bell), symbolizing the imminent destruction of the hopes, dreams, and wishes of the people.
This statue comes with three head switch-outs, a classic masked-on Batwoman, one with her full-face mask, and one with her unmasked. She also comes with five hand/arm switch-outs, allowing collectors to feature Batwoman with various weapon options.
The statue features Three (3) head switch-outs: 1 classic masked Batwoman, 1 with a full-face mask, 1 with her unmasked. Five (5) hand/arm switch-outs: 3 on the left and two on the right.

Sideshow Collectibles “Girls Night Out” by Bruce Timm Fine Art Print
CELEBRATING THE DARK KNIGHT’S 75TH ANNIVERSARY, CLAMPETT STUDIO COLLECTIONS IS PROUD TO PRESENT THE GIRLS NIGHT OUT ART PRINT!
Now THESE girls know how to set the town alight! Inspired by the Batman: The Animated Series episode entitled “Harley and Ivy,” Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy team up as Gotham City’s answer to Thelma and Louise (except that these girls would never head for the cliff…) This episode was especially popular with fans of Batman: The Animated Series, because it was the only episode pairing these two dynamic villainesses.
This art was inspired by a piece of “concept” art from the development of the award-winning show. It was part of a body of work that helped evolve the now-famous “Bruce Timm style” character design, which was an ultra-modern, dramatic, angular, and graphic departure from all previous representations of The Dark Knight.
“Girl’s Night Out” was originally released in 1996 as a hand-painted limited edition animation art cel and was one of the fastest-selling limited editions in the history of the Warner Bros. studio stores. Under direction by Bruce Timm, the original art was drawn and painted by the Warner Bros. Animation Studio, as part of the 75th Anniversary of Batman’s creation. This anniversary edition of only 100 pieces on canvas was created for DC fans to cherish, and each print is signed by Bruce Timm himself.
