DC Comics Reveal 'Batman & Robin: Eternal'

The Dark Knight is Back in a New Weekly Series 

By Alex Burns

After the epic year long crossover event 'Batman: Eternal' DC Comics have announced a follow-up series titled 'Batman & Robin: Eternal'. The new comic will mark a celebration of the 75th Anniversary of Robin this year and as the cover suggests will deal with many of the different hereos who have work the Robin mask. Writer Scott Snyder has confirmed that fan-favourite Batgirl, Cass Cain will feature heavily in the series which will please a lot of readers as the character has rarely appeared since the launch of the New 52. The most awesome thing for me however is that it's a weekly series, here's hoping DC can keep to that strict release window! Check out the cover art for issue #1 below and full solicitations for the first three issues. We can't wait to get stuck into this new series and will be sure to share our thoughts as the books release.

It’s here at last—the sequel to the blockbuster weekly series BATMAN ETERNAL!

Five years ago, Batman and Robin worked the most disturbing case of their crimefighting careers—bringing down the organization of the ultimate human trafficker, the mysterious woman known only as Mother. At the time, Dick Grayson never quite understood the scope of that case, but now its darkest secrets are coming back to haunt him and everyone else who ever worked with Batman! With Bruce Wayne now lost to them, Dick and all his allies are out in the cold! Who can they trust? Is someone among them not who they say they are? And who is the deadly, silent young woman in black who’s come to Gotham City looking for Batman?

Prepare yourself for six months of international intrigue, twists and turns, and new additions to the world of Batman and Robin, from showrunners James Tynion IV and Scott Snyder, and writers Tim Seeley, Steve Orlando, Genevieve Valentine, Ed Brisson, and Jackson Lanzing & Collin Kelly!
