THE NEXT STAND-ALONE BATMAN EPIC ARRIVES WITH BATMAN: GARGOYLE OF GOTHAM #1 THIS SEPTEMBER! A MUST-READ IN THE TRADITION OF DARKER TONED BAT-READS LIKE KILLING JOKE, ARKHAM ASYLUM & DARK KNIGHT RETURNS!
Third Eye Faithful, we’re telling you right now: you do NOT want to miss out on GARGOYLE OF GOTHAM!
This book is gonna be pure 🔥!
Dropping this September 13th, just in time for BATMAN DAY on 9/16/23: BATMAN GARGOYLE OF GOTHAM is gonna be one of the biggest BAT-READS since THREE JOKERS!
Channeling some old school FRANK MILLER DARK KNIGHT RETURNS style energy, and featuring visionary creator RAFAEL GRAMPA, who worked with Miller on previous DARK KNIGHT saga hits — this book is the kind of hard-hitting BATMAN story that will rank up there with KILLING JOKE, ARKHAM ASYLUM, and more!
WHAT’S THE SCOOP ON GARGOYLE OF GOTHAM?
EISNER AWARD-WINNING STORYTELLER RAFAEL GRAMPA’S TWISTED VISION OF THE DARK KNIGHT!
When you chase your own shadow…it leads you into the abyss.
In a Gotham City where every day feels darker and more irredeemable than the last, Batman makes a definitive choice–to kill off the Bruce Wayne identity for good and embrace the cowl full-time.
But though he knows the streets of Gotham, Batman will soon come to find that he hardly knows himself. A serial killer is on the loose, and while the murder victims seem random at first, every clue draws Batman closer to the terrifying truth–that they are all connected, not just to each other…but to him…
When an all-new rogues gallery of utterly depraved villains begins to emerge from the depths of the city, Batman will have to contend with the very nature of evil–including that which lurks inside in the darkest corners of his own heart–to face what’s coming for his city.
Batman: Gargoyle of Gotham brings Rafael Grampa’s twisted vision of both the Dark Knight and the city of Gotham to life in a DC writing debut that will reach its icy black tendrils into the deepest and darkest corners of human nature and leave you gasping for breath–and for more!

One of the greatest Batman stories ever told, Batman: Arkham Asylum is back in a new edition of the classic hardcover! The inmates of Arkham Asylum have taken over and are demanding Batman in exchange for their hostages. Accepting their demented challenge, Batman is forced to endure the personal hells of The Joker, the Scarecrow, Poison Ivy, Two-Face, and many other sworn enemies in order to save the innocents and retake the asylum. Includes newly remastered artwork by Dave McKean, available for the first time in this format.
The Batman and The Joker at the end of the world! Powerhouse creative team Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo (Batman: The Court of Owls, Dark Nights: Metal) continue a decade-long partnership in this acclaimed futuristic miniseries, now in softcover!
Christmas. St. Patrick’s Day. Easter. As the calendar’s days stack up, so do the bodies littered in the streets of Gotham City. A murderer is loose, killing only on holidays. The only man that can stop this fiend? The Dark Knight. In a mystery taking place during Batman’s early days of crime fighting, Batman: The Long Halloween is one of the greatest Dark Knight stories ever told.
Working with District Attorney Harvey Dent and Lieutenant James Gordon, Batman races against the calendar as he tries to discover who Holiday is before he claims his next victim each month. A mystery that has the reader continually guessing the identity of the killer, this story also ties into the events that transform Harvey Dent into Batman’s deadly enemy, Two-Face.
The magnificent creative team of Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale reach their apex in Batman: The Long Halloween. This edition includes original 13-issue series as well as four additional story pages cut from the original series, which are presented fully colored and restored to their place in the story. Also featured are sketches and an introduction by the director and writer of The Dark Knight Rises, Christopher Nolan and David Goyer.
The Caped Crusader has never been stopped. Not by the Joker. Not by Two-Face. Not even by the Justice League. But now, in the wake of DC UNIVERSE: REBIRTH, Batman faces his most challenging foe ever-the idealistic hero known as Gotham, who wants to save the city from Batman himself! Collects the pages of BATMAN: REBIRTH #1 and issues #1-6 of the new, hit BATMAN series! This collection features a new cover by superstar artist David Finch!

A WAR WITH NO END, A MAN WITH NO LIMITS. The man known only as B. is half-mortal and half-God, cursed and compelled to violence…even at the sacrifice of his sanity.
But after centuries, B. may have finally found a refuge – working for the U.S. government to fight the battles too violent and too dangerous for anyone else.
In exchange, B. will be granted the one thing he desires: the truth about his endless blood-soaked existence…and how to end it.
Keanu Reeves makes his comic book writing debut alongside New York Times bestselling co-writer Matt Kindt (Folklords, Grass Kings) and acclaimed artist Ron Garney (Juggernaut) in a brutally violent new series about one immortal warrior’s fight through the ages.
WHAT’S GOING ON WITH BRZRKR RIGHT NOW? SNAG THE BRZRKR POETRY OF MADNESS ONE-SHOT!
A sea of gore and devastation awaits as B, through a fateful chance encounter, safeguards the advanced and ancient realm of Atlantis as its unstoppable protector.
But a sickly king serves as a symbol for the rot inside, as the security and bliss created through B’s violence is shallow… The cracks created by a secret cult might spell a monstrous end for the legendary city, one beyond even B’s ability to save.
Renowned filmmaker and record-shattering comic creator Keanu Reeves joins acclaimed writer and artist Steve Skroce (Doctor Strange) for a one-shot special that fans of Lovecraftian horror would be mad to miss!

Third Eye Faithful, we’re long-time fans of writer MARK MILLAR, with all the amazing projects he’s done like KICK-ASS, WANTED, NEMESIS, OLD MAN LOGAN, ULTIMATES, and so many more!
So, you better believe that one of our favorite series from the last year has been NIGHT CLUB, a bold new IMAGE COMICS release that’s part of his creator-owned MILLARWORLD universe (that’s playing out in a big way in the series BIG TIME), and when we saw the trade paperback was on the way, we knew we had to show it some love!
In NIGHT CLUB, the question is posed:
You’re 17 years old and you’ve been bitten by a vampire. Do you live in the shadows and drink human blood, or do you use your newfound gifts for the dream costumed-superhero life you’ve always wanted?
You’re bulletproof, you can crawl up walls, and you can turn to mist, bats, or even a wolf. Why not have a little fun?
This series blends Millar’s trademark ultra-violent, hyper-kinetic storytelling with traditional teen superhero team dynamics to make for one hell of a compelling read that’s reminiscent of coming-of-age vampire epics like the movie THE LOST BOYS and teen hero favorites like MY HERO ACADEMIA!
HAVEN’T READ IT YET? MAKE SURE TO SCOOP NIGHT CLUB TP VOL.1 ON 9/6/23 & DIVE INTO MILLAR’S NEXT MUST-READ EPIC!
