Another huge Batman announcement? Don’t mind if we do, and don’t be surprised if this isn’t the last one this week either. Warren Ellis and Bryan Hitch are reuniting later this year for a brand new 12-issue Batman maxiseries titled The Batman’s Grave. The series picks up right after Ellis’ Legends of the Dark Knight…
In DC Comics’ hit event Metal-- from Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo, of course-- the idea of a “Dark Multiverse” that manifests all of our fears and darkest desires was an interesting twist on the established Multiverse concept of the DC Universe. We got to see some of it in play, particularly with the Dark…

It's Friday, so it's that time again, friends: time for This Week in Comics. While we cover plenty of books here at Batman News, we like to discuss those books with each other too.

I think that we can rightly say that Stjepan Šejić is a rising star in the comics industry. His work on Aquaman with Dan Abnett was just wonderful, and any time his name pops up on a title I certainly take notice. This fall, Šejić will flex his creative muscles as both writer and artist…

As you’ve also surely heard, he will continue writing the words “Bat” and “Cat” in Batman/Catwoman, which kicks off…
