Announced at the same time as "Superman:Earth One" to be released in 2010, obviously only Superman was released to be a top-seller, now the official cover for "Batman:Earth One" by Geoff Johns & Gary Frank has been released. Thanks to Robot6.ComicBookResources.com by way of Amazon.com we have an official product description & the cover to the graphic novel, which will be released around the same time as 'The New 52" issues from each run will collected in GN forms.
Geoff Johns, the writer of BLACKEST NIGHT, GREEN LANTERN and INFINITE CRISIS re-teams with superstar artist Gary Frank, his collaborator on SUPERMAN: SECRET ORIGIN, SUPERMAN:BRAINIAC and SUPERMAN & THE LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES, to create this original graphic novel that gives new insight into Bruce Wayne’s transformation into Batman and his first year as The Dark Knight. This follow-up to the # 1 New York Times bestseller, SUPERMAN: EARTH ONE, by J. Michael Straczynski and Shane Davis is the latest in the series that features the industry’s top writers and illustrators and their unique takes on DC’s characters. It’s the perfect book for new readers of graphic novels as well as longtime comic book fans.
So when will this hit store shelves? Well it's listed to hit the streets "May 8, 2012", about two months before the opening of
"The Dark Knight Rises". Coincidence?
