When developer Rocksteady unveiled the Collector's Editions of their massively anticipated videogame Batman: Arkham Knight, it included a copy of Arkham Knight #0, implying that a comic series would be on the way. After all, each of the games in the series have received ongoing series on the shelves. Now, DC has announced that Peter Tomasi will pen an "in-continuity story" prequel, with Viktor Bogdanovic and Art Thibert on art duties and covers by Dan Panosian. It will be a digital-first series, with the first issue dropping on digital platforms on February 24th, and selling in print on March 11th. You can read DC's official announcement below, and patiently wait for the game to arrive on June 2nd, 2015.
Fans of the award-winning and bestselling game series, including previous releases Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City, know the Joker is dead and Arkham City is closed. As a new day begins, Bruce Wayne finds himself in devastating pain, recovering from his injuries and questioning whether his role as Batman is still necessary to the city’s survival. But as the sun rises in Gotham City, dangerous new threats emerge from the shadows…and the Arkham Knight is just beginning. This in-continuity prequel comic set prior to the events of the brand-new video game Batman: Arkham Knight is a must-read!
