Batman: White Knight (comic)
·
23 on Batman White Knight: Presents Generation Joker #1This latest story from the vaults of Batman: White Knight allows us to go on a child friendly escapade between the Joker and his two children. We already learnt about the children in the run of Batman Beyond as they took on two different aspects of the Joker’s personality but now we get to see…
Several new Bat-books will be joining the already thick roster of Batman titles, and that's without including Harley Quinn. There seems to be as many ways to approach Batman as there are ways to skin a cat. Somehow, much like asking for someone to expound actual cat skinning, the more we ask the less okay with…
While Batman has always been a profitable character for DC Comics, 2019 has been particularly generous to the caped crusader. In a not-so-surprising announcement, Diamond Comic Distributors (the world's largest comic book distributor) has placed DC's wildly successful Detective Comics #1000 at the top of the sales charts for all of 2019! This marks the second…
Whenever you integrate real life events into comic history there’s always a lot of baggage that comes along with it. There’s the option to create a fake country or event as a stand-in for real life events to distance the real world from the fantastic. One exception to that option is perhaps the horrors Nazi…
What if the greatest villain in Gotham City was not The Joker, but the Batman? That question is at the core of the epic eight-part limited series BATMAN: WHITE KNIGHT, which features the writing and art of Sean Murphy. This limited-run Batman Black & White statue presents a highly detailed version of Murphy’s Joker, a nuanced,…

Cast in a descending…
Two of our favorite miniseries of the last several years are now available in brand new, exclusive hardcover collections, making this a joyous new comic book day indeed. Sean Gordon Murphy’s magnum opus Batman: White Knight and Tom King and Mitch Gerads’ epic tragedy Mister Miracle have been collected before, true, but these hardcovers feature…
Sean Gordon Murphy’s ambitious Batman: White Knight was one of comics’ runaway hits from the past year. The series was decidedly and recognizably Batman, with plenty of nods to the character’s popularity across countless mediums, yet with a fresh take on the Dark Knight and his rogues gallery. It succeeded at trying something new with…
It all comes down to this: Batman, Joker and the GTO confronting Neo, Hatter, and the army of mind-slaves that used to be Gotham’s fiercest supercriminals. Can Neo’s Napier-negging nefariousness be nixed? And can Gotham survive the struggle? Find out in the conclusion of Batman: White Knight. SPOILERS AHEAD Let down Endings are hard. White Knight…
The end is in sight. With Neo Joker holding Gotham City in frozen captivity, Jack and Harley have no choice but to face the thorn in their side. But what of Batman? Will he sit in Arkham as the fate of his city is decided? Or will the Dark Knight find his way back into…
The GTO is on the hunt for Batman! The Dark Knight's friends have left one-by-one, and with Gordon joining Jack Napier's task-force, the pressure is on Gotham's king vigilante like never before. Can Batman evade capture? Can Jack keep the Joker at bay? Find out in Batman: White Knight #6. SPOILERS AHEAD What are you? Last month, White…
Alfred is dead. Gordon is gone. Nightwing and Batgirl are in league with the enemy. The boy who lost everything has lost everything for a second time, and this might be the loss that sticks. In Batman: White Knight #5, it only gets worse—and Batman and his city may never recover. SPOILERS AHEAD. The mask comes off…
Jack Napier, hero of the oppressed. Batman, Gordon, and the rest of the law in Gotham may not believe it, but the people of the city's most neglected borough believe that the man once called the Joker has earned their trust. But is their faith in him well-placed? There may be no answers in Batman: White…
Batman's the bad guy. That’s what Jack Napier wants Gotham to believe, and when the Dark Knight's hands are far from clean, the city doesn’t need much convincing. But the artist-formerly-known-as-Joker has done more than point fingers—he has also pledged to do some good of his own. And while his methods may leave a bit…
Who is the villain in a Batman story? Is it the rogue-of-the-week, like Joker, Penguin, Riddler, or Ivy? Is it corrupt police and politicians? Batman is a complex character within himself, but his existence in a society that somewhat resembles our own forces us to question the heroism of the Dark Knight himself. What's more,…
When I read Batman: White Knight, I immediately noticed a striking difference between it and pretty much every Joker-related book I’ve seen in the past few years: Joker’s dialogue was set in the same font as everything else. Whereas other recent stories have made use of crinkly, Jokerized fonts, letterer Todd Klein chose to use…
What if the Joker wasn’t crazy anymore? What if the brutality of Batman became too much for his beloved city to accept? Sean Murphy’s Batman: White Knight #1 is at last here: a gorgeously-illustrated, well-written start to a series that may well become a defining moment in the history of the Dark Knight. Spoilers ahead…
It seems that with Batman stories, there's a little bit of everything these days. In addition to investigating the Dark Multiverse in Metal and recounting his early career in Batman, Batman will also be the focus of some exciting upcoming miniseries. One of the most intriguing (and possibly craziest) is October's Batman: White Knight, the highly…
This October, Batman becomes a bad guy. Sean Gordon Murphy, illustrator of The Wake, will helm a miniseries that puts a twist on the Batman mythos: Batman is the villain and the Joker is the hero. After being cured of his madness, Joker makes it his mission to take down the Batman, using social issues…
