Warning: Spoilers for the Batman: Hush sequel!One of the biggest Batman stories of the 2000s is without a doubt Batman: Hush by Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee. Now, over twenty years later, the superstar team has returned to pen a sequel, and ScreenRant has everything fans need to know before jumping into this classic-in-the-making.

DC recently revealed that Loeb and Lee would be taking over the main Batman series starting with Batman #158, which will kick off the long-awaited sequel to Batman: Hush. Currently, it's unknown exactly what Hush is after or what will happen in this story. But considering the short preview-slash-prelude for the story that was shown at the end of Justice League Unlimited #1 by Mark Waid and Dan Mora, readers can make a few guesses.

The original Batman: Hush, a major all-star story, included the majority of the Bat-Family, as well as Clayface, the Joker, Harley Quinn,...

Batman is one of the most skilled fighters and planners in the DC Universe, but Superman knows Harley Quinn is absolutely Bruce Wayne's equal. There are very few characters who could possibly match the skills that Batman has spent his entire life honing, which is why this comparison is so surprising.

During the events of Heroes in Crisis by Tom King and Clay Mann, there is a brutal massacre at Sanctuary, a place where heroes are able to go for therapy and emotional support. The only two survivors of this massacre, Booster Gold and Harley Quinn, blame the other for causing it. This leads the Trinity to trying to solve who is responsible, and they end up seeing Harley Quinn's full potential.

Cornered by Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman, it seems that Harley Quinn is going to be taken into custody for questioning. Instead, she manages to steal Wonder Woman's lasso,...

While many readers consider the Justice League the flagship superhero team of DC Comics, that spot was once held by the Justice Society of America. As the first superhero team in comic book history, the Jsa has played host to some of the greatest heroes in the company's roster, with Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman all having served. Having been around for over eight decades, the team have one of the richest collections of adventures in comics.

The Justice Society may not have the attention or fame in the mainstream as the Justice League, but their place in the DC Universe is beyond question. The team represents the value the company has historically placed on legacy and history, something accentuated by the older heroes' mentorship of younger characters. Having made their presence known in some recent events, the team's adventures are still some of the best in comics, and offer readers a blend of fantasy,...

Warning: Contains spoilers for Power Girl #12!Comic fans are well acquainted with Asgard, thanks to Marvel's Thor. What they may not know is that they are getting a highly fictionalized version of mythological history that has become the standard in modern media. Surprisingly, with her sudden trip to Valhalla, Power Girl is here to steer Norse mythology in the correct direction.

Thanks to Power Girl of the Superman Family, Norse mythology is getting an actual historical take. In Power Girl #12 by Leah Williams and Travis Moore, Kara's new boyfriend, Axel Gust, is from the mythological land, and he takes her there on their next impromptu date.

It's here that DC fans can encounter several key mythical Easter eggs that Marvel hasn't gotten around to treating correctly, including the head of Mimir, Vidarr's boots, Odin's crows, and many more.

Warning: Contains Spoilers for Power Girl #12!There are a lot of romances throughout the history of superhero comics, including for Power Girl. For some fans, romance is the sole reason to read a comic: to be able to "ship" two beloved characters together in a new way. Superhero stories usually only leave room, however, for brief love affairs in between alien assualts on earth, and not a lot of time for the real stuff of romance: dumb cute dates, like Power Girl's with Axel Gust.

Power Girl of the Superman Family is doing this romance thing right. In Power Girl #12 by Leah Williams and Travis Moore, she takes her relationship with the magical hero Axel Gust to the next level - Valhalla, that is.

After a sweet day of adventuring where nothing else happens in the comic except their own dating life in a mythological realm, Paige Stetler and Axel...

Superman's inner demons manifest in a horrifying physical form, revealing his struggle with two conflicting identities. The two-headed monster symbolizes Superman's battle to reconcile his personas of Clark Kent and Superman. Superman's secret fear of never merging his identities exposes his insecurity, showing that even heroes struggle.

Superman is one of the most iconic superheroes in the DC Universe, his unwavering smile and optimism inspiring hope in the hearts of many. However, Superman has faced a monstrous transformation that suggests that there's more to the Man of Steel than what he displays on the surface.

In the story "The Crucible" by Collin Kelly, Jackson Lanzing, Cully Hamner, Dave McCaig, and AndWorld Design from Dog Days of Summer #1, Superman brings Krypto along as he infiltrates a mysterious alien ship that arrives on Earth. Inside, each level of the ship features a test meant to mess with Superman's head and break him down psychologically.

Power Girl is rumored to receive a powerful upgrade with a massive weapon, distinguishing her from other Kryptonians. The preview of Power Girl #12 shows Paige on a date in Asgard, receiving a gift from the mysterious Axel Gust. The Super-Family getting weapons as part of their character design is a rad idea for the Absolute Universe.

Warning: Contains Potential Spoilers for Power Girl #12!Power Girl is rumored to be getting a powerful upgrade with a massive weapon, which instantly distinguishes her from the rest of DCs Kryptonian family. The Super-Family seldom relies on physical weapons since they are practically living weapons themselves. Whether this formidable new accessory will become a permanent addition to Paige Stelters design is still unknown, but it certainly sparks an exciting idea regarding DCs upcoming Absolute Universe launch.

In the preview for Leah Williams, Travis Moore, and Sebastian Chengs Power Girl #12, Paige goes on a date...

Warning: Spoilers for Power Girl #11!

DC may have its own version of Loki in Axel Gust, revealed to be from Asgard in Power Girl #11. Axel and Power Girl develop a romantic relationship, leading to a confrontation with a supervillain named Aquus. The possibility of Axel being Loki himself or related to him could potentially shake up the foundation of DC Comics.

I could be wrong, but it looks like DC Comics is about to get its own version of Loki, and I say that knowing how much we all love Marvel's version of the Norse legend. Even those who don't follow Loki's journey in the comics have likely found themselves enamored with Tom Hiddleston's portrayal in the MCU. He's a likable chap, but I think DC has a chance to do better.

DC fans had better get familiar with the name Axel Gust, because I think DC is priming...

Warning: Spoilers for Nightwing 2024 Annual #1!

Not everyone can be as lucky as Nightwing: Bea Bennett and Starfire overcame hardship to become heroes. Nightwing's heroism was handed to him by Batman: Dick Grayson's privilege shaped his journey as a hero. Nightwing's exes Starfire and Captain Bld struggled before becoming heroes: both heroines saved themselves to become warriors.

Between Captain Bld and Starfire, Nightwing's exes share one thing that he will never understand: struggling to become a hero without the help of a trusted mentor. While Dick Grayson has had a number of love interests over the years, including his current endgame relationship with Batgirl, two romances that were key to his character development were those with Starfire and Bea Bennett.

Nightwing 2024 Annual #1 by Travis Moore makes it apparent that, unlike Dick, both iconic Nightwing love interests know about struggling to survive in ways that he could never understand. When Dick's parents died,...

Robin gains Superman's powers due to a magical costume. Robin easily defeats Sinestro with his new superpowers. Despite overwhelming abilities, Robin begs to have his powers taken back.

Robin is one of the most famous examples of a superhero who doesn't have superpowers, right alongside his mentor Batman. But when the world is under threat from fifth-dimensional imps, batarangs and quips aren't enough to take them down, which results in Robin getting powers — and a new costume — on par with Superman.

Robin's shocking power-up takes place in Batman / Superman: World's Finest #26 by Mark Waid and Dan Mora. In this story, the Earth is under siege by fifth-dimensional imps who worship villains.

Nightwing's anti-Aquaman failsafe showcases his readiness for any threat, even from strong and powerful Atlanteans.

Warning! Spoilers ahead for Titans #7!Sorry Aquaman, but Nightwing has one of the most effective strategies for defeating rogue Atlanteans.

Fortunately, Dick Grayson has the perfect way to handle him.

In Titans #7 by Tom Taylor and Travis Moore, Titans Tower is under attack. As if the chaos from "Beast World" wasn't enough, their old friend Tempest is still under the control of Xand'r, a rogue Tamaranean. Garth attacks his former teammates along with Nightwing, who's become a fox hybrid.

Warning! Contains spoilers for Titans #6!

Titans Tower is a safe haven for the superheroes, capable of resisting Darkseid's Omega Beam blasts. Building a safe house requires planning for all types of powerful villains, and the Titans have done just that. The Titans' safe house proves that they can handle threats like Darkseid and keep civilians safe.

Nightwing proved that the Titans have one of the strongest based in the DC Universe because of howt it's rated to resist up to three Omega Beam blasts from Darkseid. Superheroes are attacked constantly by their villains, so having a location they can actually retreat to or keep civilians in is extremely important.

In Titans #6 by Tom Taylor and Travis Moore, which takes place during the events of Beast World, Nightwing and his group are holed up in Titans Tower, one of the safest places in the city. But when a mind-controlled Tempest allows...

Alan Scott: The Green Lantern #2 explores Alan's past as both an Arkham "patient" and a burgeoning hero, picking up directly after his breakdown. The creative team reintroduces characters from Alan Scott's original run to breathe new life into the character in this retelling of his history. The series highlights the complex tragedies of Alan's origins, weaving real-life history into DC's universe in a way that makes sense within a world filled with superheroes.

Arkham Asylum houses some of the most unhinged criminals on any side of Gotham City, but once upon a time, it housed Alan Scott's Green Lantern. The original Green Lantern in DC lore — dating back to the 1940s — has a new series focusing on his life as a gay man living in a time that wasn't safe for gay men to live in. As such, the first issue...

In Batman/Superman: World's Finest #18, Superman criticizes the Riddler's outfit, considering it too outrageous even for a comic book villain. Although Superman also encounters other badly dressed villains like Spellbinder and Magpie in the same issue, it is the Riddler's costume that he finds most unacceptable. This criticism from Superman may have influenced the Riddler to eventually change his costume to a more streamlined and simplified look in later years.

Warning! Contains spoilers for Batman/Superman: World’s Finest #18One of Batman’s many rogues has earned Superman’s scorn for a surprisingly comical reason. The first team-up between the Dark Knight and the Man of Steel sees the latter deride one iconic baddie, but not for his villainous actions.

The issue opens with Batman and Superman investigating a cruise ship robbery by the Riddler, which leads them to an abandoned ship and a trap set by the Kryptonian supervillain Jax-Ur. Despite changes in their origin story, the thrill of a maritime heist remains a core element that unites Batman and Superman throughout the years.

Batman and Superman are one of DC's oldest teams, but the events of World's Finest #18 have rewritten how the two first met. Still, in this issue there are a couple winks to their first Golden Age team-up — starting from the very first panel.

The Bat-Signal, one of the most famous examples of the Bat-Symbol, was actually inspired by Superman in DC's contemporary World's Finest series. Superman subtly plants the idea for the Bat-Signal in James Gordon's head. While Batman has added to the legacies of other heroes, in this instance, Superman contributed to Batman's legacy by suggesting the iconic Bat-Signal.

Batman and Superman are two of the most iconic heroes to ever live, and they have equally fitting symbols to go with them. The Bat-Symbol and Superman's S-Shield are known worldwide, but now DC has revealed that one of the most famous examples of the Bat-Symbol, the Bat-Signal, was actually inspired by Superman.

DC has been revisiting and updating the Silver Age with a new World's Finest line of comics. These comics usually detail the team-ups of Batman and Superman, and the current series...

Almost every hero in the DC Universe has a sidekick: Batman and Robin, Green Arrow and Speedy, Flash and Kid Flash, and, of course Wonder Woman and Wonder Girl. But it seems Wonder Woman wouldn't have picked Wonder Girl if she had a say, putting in doubt Diana's desire to actually have a sidekick trainee.

Sidekicks aren't a new thing for superheroes. Ever since the explosive debut of Dick Grayson's Robin in 1940, it seems like almost every superhero in comics has had a sidekick at one point or another. And many sidekicks are specifically chosen by their mentors: Batman, for example, was there for Dick Grayson after the murder of his parents — a situation similar to Bruce Wayne's childhood trauma. There are so many sidekicks that there are entire teams devoted just to them, such as Young Justice, which Wonder Girl Cassie Sandsmark leads. But it seems Wonder Woman...

Warning: spoilers for The Flash (2023)!Nicolas Cage's Superman has been immortalized thanks to an official meeting with the mainstream Batman and Superman. The Oscar-winning actor played Kal-El in the canceled 1990s movie Superman Lives. The movie was originally proposed to reboot the then-stagnant Superman film franchise until it was canceled three weeks prior to filming. However, Cage's Superman lives on, especially since pre-production stills mean fans technically still saw him in the role.

Readers get to see Nightwing's new powers in Nightwing #104 by Tom Taylor, Travis Moore, Adriano Lucas, and Wes Abbott. In an attempt to corrupt him, Nightwing is given powers by the demon Neron. Neron bargains for the soul of Olivia Desmond - the daughter of Nightwing's nemesis Blockbuster, who he's been protecting. Neron points out that if Nightwing had powers, he could save so many more people than he can now.

Unsurprisingly to fans of the character, Nightwing completely dismisses this, happily giving up his powers rather than benefit Neron. While this was a great moment for Nightwing, it actually shows how Nightwing is a better hero...

Spoilers for Nightwing #103!Nightwing has long been a formidable and respected hero among gods and metahumans in the DC Universe despite not having any powers. Now the former sidekick of Batman will finally get his chance to utilize an extremely powerful set of abilities in his own series. Nightwing has sometimes needed to look to his superhero friends, such as the other members of the Titans, to assist him when the threats to Blüdhaven are too much for him to handle alone. But now his powers will push him beyond the limits he’s used to.

In the main story of Nightwing #103 by Tom Taylor, Travis Moore and Vasco Georgiev, Nightwing and his fellow Titans Raven, Cyborg, and Beast Boy venture into Hell to find a loophole in a contract that entitles the Demon-Lord Neron to the soul of the young girl Olivia Desmond.

Warning: Spoilers for Superman: Son of Kal-El #18His "Electric Blue" costume didn't amount to anything long-term decades ago, but Superman's 1990s reboot suit may finally prove to be worthwhile through his son, Jon Kent. Back in 1998, Clark Kent's traditional look was updated to reflect the new energy-based powers that he had adopted at the time. These powers came with a blue and white suit used to contain all of that energy. This would quickly evolve into two suits when a plot conceived by Cyborg Superman and Toyman split the Last Son of Krypton into two people: Superman Red and Superman Blue. The two versions of Supes would eventually merge back together, reducing Superman back to his normal self before the initial status quo change, rendering the reboot attempt kind of mute.

However, it seems that the Superman Blue costume will be making a comeback, not to be adorned by Clark Kent,...

Tom Taylor and Bruno Redondo, who made his own excellent cover for Nightwing #100, will be joined by artists Javier Fernandez, Jorge Fornes, Jorge Jiménez, Travis Moore, Babs Tarr, Dan More, and more recognizable names in celebration Dick Grayson's 100th issue of his current ongoing Nightwing series. For the hero, he will celebrate the milestone with some of the greatest heroes in...

This was a purely random pick-up from me, but one with some logic attached. Firstly, it’s Image, and lately that has been quite the mark of quality. There have been some great books coming out from them of late, and Marvel and DC better watch out. Only so many Bat and Spidey books you can pump out before things get stale after all. Secondly, it’s set in Miami, and I love a bit of Miami. Thirdly, it’s got a great cover, shades of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City in there. The preview blurb also sounded promising, all of which adds up to a ‘let’s give this a chance’ review.

Let’s take a look.

From the very first intriguing page, style oozes out from every panel. We are, of course, in Florida, and our...

Never really enjoyed the fact that the original Captain Marvel, the real Captain Marvel, can’t be called that due to Marvel’s use of the name for their characters. Don’t get me wrong, was (and am) a huge fan of Mar-Vell, Marvel’s male incarnation, but seems that a character like Billy Batson, who has been around since 1939, is due just a bit more respect. Captain Marvel was once upon a time the biggest selling character in comics, of course, ahead of Superman and Batman back in the day. Then Fawcett, his publisher, went under, and DC bought the rights but never really knew what to do with him. Books came and went from the Seventies onwards, with approaches ranging from humour to straight action, but it’s taken awhile for any ongoing popularity to stick.

In this exclusive preview, we start to get a sense of Bane's 72-issue master plan to break the Batman.

Since Tom King's run started way back in 2016, we've had a few dialogue-free (or nearly dialogue-free) issues where the art tells one story and the narration tells another, and the two intertwine to move the plot and the characters forward in King's master plan. I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say that these are some of the best issues of the entire run. They're certainly some of my favorite Batman comics of all time.

From a plot perspective, these dialogue-less issues are always fairly important. In the first of these, Batman #12, Batman fights his way through Santa Prisca to take on Bane, while the narration reveals that young Bruce contemplated suicide just after his parents' deaths. The wedding issue, Batman #50, was largely silent, telling a retrospective...

Batman will revisit Grant Morrison's Black Casebook in Detective Comics Annual #2 in June.

Whatever doesn't kill you simply makes you stranger. In June, Detective Comics is reopening the Black Casebook, a collection of Batman's weirdest cases -- the supernatural, the macabre, the psychedelic, and the unsolved. These are cases so baffling that even the World's Greatest Detective couldn't come up with an answer.

First introduced by Grant Morrison in the late 2000s as a framing device for his entire Batman run, the Black Casebook refers to stories published in the '50s and '60s at the height of the Comics Code. In order to keep the Caped Crusader's adventures "age appropriate" during the Silver Age, the character stopped fighting (and killing) gun-wielding thugs and instead faced off against aliens, adventured with a rainbow-colored Batman from another planet, entered an isolation chamber that led to strange visions of Robin's death,...

Warning: This article contains Spoilers for Batman #38 by Tom King and Travis Moore, in stores now.

After going back to the early days of Batman to tell the story of “The War of Jokes and Riddles” before exploring the ramifications of Batman and Catwoman’s engagement and taking us on the world’s finest double date, writer Tom King takes a breather in his Batman series, the only way he can — by giving us a story that’s dark, violent and quite unsettling.

DC Comics' "Batman" #38, available January 3, 2018, is written by Tom King and illustrated by Travis Moore, with covers by Tim Sale and Olivier Coipel:

"...in the 'The Origin of Bruce Wayne', if 'Mattie' could grow up to be anybody...

"...he'd grow up to be millionaire playboy 'Bruce Wayne'. But what would happen if he was forced to relive the worst tragedy of Bruce's life and his parents were killed?

"Now 'Batman' on the hunt for a killer, puts him face to face with a strange mirror version of his own past..."
