Tom Taylor joined forces with fan-favorite artist Trevor Hairsine to create a sensation with DCeased, a tale of what happens to the World’s Greatest Super Heroes when the world ends. Now the acclaimed writer is partnering with red-hot artist Yasmine Putri to do it again with Dark Knights of Steel. Don’t miss the first issue of this 12-issue high-fantasy series set in a DC Universe where a spaceship from a doomed planet crash-lands into a medieval world.

Jock, one of the most iconic Batman artists of the 21st century (The Batman Who Laughs, Batman: The Black Mirror), focuses all his storytelling powers on the tale of one very, very dark night in Gotham City with Batman: One Dark Knight. The "Fear State" storyline running across the Batman titles reaches its epic conclusion this month in Batman: Fear State: Omega #1. Discover how Dick Grayson struggled to find his path in Robin & Batman from the sensational team of Jeff Lemire and Dustin Nguyen.

After the cataclysmic events of Infinite Frontier, President Superman, Flashpoint Batman, and the rest of the Justice Incarnate team are joined by Orion of the New Gods for a do-or-die mission across the Multiverse to seek out a threat new to them all and more deadly than anything any world ever faced before. Joshua Williamson, Dennis Culver, and Paul Pelletier will deliver an unforgettable story that continues to up the ante. 

Tom King wrote two of the most acclaimed titles in years, Rorschach and Strange Adventures. Don’t miss the hardcover collections of these 12-issue series featuring the sensational art of Jorge Fornés, Mitch Gerads, and Evan “Doc” Shaner. Varian Johnson and Daniel Isles put an all-new spin on the super escape artist in Mister Miracle: The Great Escape, a new graphic novel for young adults. Scott Free is a student at the Goodness Academy, on the planet Apokolips, ruled by Lord Darkseid. He wants nothing more than to leave Apokolips for planet Earth; the only problem is that no one has ever left Apokolips of their own free will…or alive.

a BOLD, GRITTYTAKE ON Gotham!

2

From high above the sweltering summer streets of Gotham, Batman planned to escort the GCPD as the dangerous metahuman super-villain known as E.M.P. was transferred from a holding cell to his permanent home at Blackgate Prison. E.M.P.’s electrical powers posed a threat, but the situation was in hand—until it wasn’t. Now every light in Gotham is out, the police are in disarray, and a broken, bleeding Batman must fight his way to Blackgate, block by block, dragging E.M.P. behind him. But the dark corners of Gotham hold many surprises…and E.M.P. has many more shocks to deliver before the night is through!

One of the most iconic Batman artists of the 21st century, the incomparable Jock (The Batman Who Laughs, Batman: The Black Mirror), has focused all his storytelling powers on the tale of one very, very dark night in Gotham City. It’s always darkest before the dawn—if it ever comes…

BATMAN #116

The only thing standing between an insane, heavily armed Peacekeeper-01 and a high body count in Gotham City is Batman. Their first bout didn’t go well for the Dark Knight, but the city is on the line and he can’t let the Scarecrow’s master plan come to fruition…and whose side is Miracle Molly truly on? The penultimate chapter of “Fear State”! 

Backup: With the Bat comms unreliable, Oracle has instructed the Batgirls to stay in the Clock Tower while she and Nightwing investigate who’s behind the Oracle Network hacks. But with the Magistrate’s forces instructed to attack the Clock Tower, will the Batgirls make it out before it’s too late?

As the full scope of the Scarecrow’s plans is revealed, a bloodied Dark Knight fights for his life, and all the lives in Gotham City, against an unrelenting, unstoppable opponent. The shocking conclusion to “Fear State” is here…Will Batman ever be the same? 

Backup: After what happened in the Magistrate’s Skybase-01, nowhere is safe, and the Batgirls hide out in a hotel room until Babs arrives offering a plan for their future. Seer, the “Anti-Oracle,” is revealed here! And who they are will make you question everything you see moving forward in Gotham…

The future of the Outsiders depends on the Signal, but he’ll need help…from the world of Future State. Signal, meet Future State Duke Thomas, and listen to every warning he has to deliver!  

Batwoman  story: “FEAR STATE” TIE-IN!  Batwoman  now has the help of her sister, Beth, who is currently disguised as Red Alice to hit the underground network of villains in order to trace where the Anti-Oracle is. The only problem is, all of this is too familiar for Beth…and as old habits die hard, so might this be for Beth in keeping Red Alice at bay. 

Azrael story: Dead criminals are walking the streets of Gotham City, and Azrael’s faith is shaken. Is the rapture truly upon us, and will this avenging angel be called home? Or is there a more sinister and human force at work, and what warrior has been stalking Jean-Paul Valley without him noticing? Threats to Azrael’s body and soul are here, and he’ll need more than a flaming sword to stop them.  

Tweedledee and Tweedledum story: After their last job with the Mad Hatter, Tweedledee and Tweedledum took their money and decided to live a quiet life…but a quiet life can be just as dangerous. Tweedledee has fallen ill, and Tweedledum will find out quickly that a pile of stolen money isn’t enough to survive in Gotham City. Will his wickeder ways prevail and see him turn to a life of crime to save his cousin’s life? 

ARKHAM CITY:THE ORDER OF THE WORLD #2

Dr. Jacosta Joy, Arkham’s last living psychiatrist, continues her descent into the Ten-Eyed Man’s world of delusion. But are his claims of ghosts and ritual  purely figments of his imagination, or is there a method to his madness? Meanwhile, Dr. Double X, a man with the ability to project his soul outside of his own body, has been taken prisoner by a very friendly couple who have discovered that his powers of astral projection can be used on others…and they are addictive. But when Azrael appears in this den of sin, will anyone be safe from his cleansing fire? 

Join us on our second trip into the darkest corners of Gotham City and bear witness to the foul creatures,  Arkhamite  and  Gothamite  alike,  that call them home.

Harley Quinn here, reporting live from Fear State!

Catwoman’s  attempts to keep  Alleytown, and those around her, safe from collateral damage have failed. Simon Saint, the Wight Witch, Father Valley, and the Magistrate have all compromised her newly founded kingdom and brought her entire life to the brink. But despite Selina’s dreams of queenhood crashing down around her, there is still hope in the form of the Alleytown Strays. Could these children, trained by Selina, be her salvation? Or will they, too, pay for their involvement with Catwoman with their lives? And with Queen Ivy and Ivy aware of each other now, will they destroy the city or become one again?

“We don’t choose who we save, Bruce. You treat the patient who needs your help.”—Thomas Wayne 

“Shadows of the Bat” begins here! In the prelude to January’s epic new Detective Comics event, Mayor Nakano has signed off on the construction of a new Arkham Tower in the heart of Gotham City, and the Bat-Family is torn. Batman has long seen Arkham as a necessary, if flawed, cog in the gears of Gotham City—a temporary solution to larger problems that in many ways mirrors his approach as Batman. Nightwing, however, who grew up watching Arkham mutate into a villain factory, believes a different approach is needed. But Bruce and Dick will need to see eye to eye on more than just Arkham Tower, as a new villain known as THE MAEGER MAN wreaks havoc in the streets and becomes  the embodiment of Gotham’s broken system!
