Absolute Batman marks the launch of DC's new All In publishing initiative, which began in late 2024. This initiative allows acclaimed creators greater freedom to explore and reinterpret these iconic characters without the constraints of established continuity. If you're unsure where to dive into the Absolute Universe, be sure to check out our comprehensive reading guide and release schedule.
IGN's Jesse Schedeen had an insightful conversation with the creators about the future following the conclusion of their initial arc. Absolute Batman teases appearances from iconic villains like Bane and the Joker. Scott Snyder, the writer, hinted, " . . . this Joker is already really terrifying by the time he meets Batman. But his relationship with Batman is part of something that really evolves as the series goes." We'll have to wait and see how this intriguing statement unfolds.
One of the advantages of preordering Absolute Batman Vol. 1 from Amazon is their Preorder Price Guarantee.
