This October, there’s more trials and tribulations than tricks and treats in store for Batman and Gotham City!
As his ferocious battle against the Clown Prince of Crime comes to an end, there are more questions than answers ahead for Gotham’s guardian!
In Batman #100, “The Joker War” comes to a city-shattering conclusion as Batman battles The Joker in a brutal, no-holds-barred final duel! This is a fight 80 years in the making, and its outcome won’t just change Batman’s life — it will change Gotham City for years to come!
Plus, catch the first glimpse of the new villain known as Ghost-Maker! And after the senses-shattering conclusion of “The Joker War” come a pair of short stories that will chart what’s to come in Gotham City and Batman.
This 56-page issue, priced at $6.99 US, is written by James Tynion IV. Wraparound cover and lead story art are by Jorge Jimenez, with a card stock variant cover by Francesco Mattina and a 1:25 variant cover by Jorge Jimenez.
Solicited in DC Connect #3, Batman #100 is set to arrive in stores on October 6.
A new character?! Who knew, right? Lol
Lol. Every other issue.
I can’t write stories to keep people reading so I’ll just introduce new characters to keep’em a buy’in 😉
I’m actually relieved that someone else has doubts on JT4’s writing. For the first time, I might drop the series…
Well, it hasn’t been terrible writing but come on.. do we need so many new characters introduced in such a small time frame? I think Tynion and DC are playing the speculator/collector market.. knowing people will jump on board in case one of the characters pops so it only boosts their publishing numbers and sales..
What about the incredible twist concerning the Designer!!! 🙂
Talk about a pump of a character that was already dead.. it’s exactly that. I get it, marketing to sell but that’s the very thing that tells me he’s playing into collectors and speculators. I guess if he said, issue #90 we get The Designer.. buy up people, cause he’s already dead wouldn’t have made everyone rush out to order the issue.. 😉
WTF is that costume on the design variant?? Is he going to be known as the Glitter Knight now? 🙂
Definitely takes the Dark out of Knight right? Before you couldn’t see him, now you’ll know it’s him miles away..
That’s the new Batman suit. The Neon Knight.
Is Batman moving to Vegas? Did the Joker gamble all his money away and he has to go win it back? Stay tuned, the Neon Batman is coming in Batman #101… Yeah!!!!
Also, don’t miss Issue #101.. Tynion will introduce Street Lights Sam, Mobster Mahoney, Strip Club Candy and many more exciting new characters.. guaranteed 1 new character per issue.. with at least another cameo appearance by someone else new.. Stay tuned folks, the Batman Universe will double in size with characters by Issue #105…
And then it will be revealed they were already dead. Onto more new characters! Because we demanded it…from lack of sales during the Tom King run…
Hey, even Batman needs to glam up sometimes…
I just hope some wheat characters get separated from the chaff characters and we get a long-standing superstar villain out of it.
over under 27 shop variants ?
I will take the over.
