Endgame is over.
The final fates of Batman and Joker are in question depending on how you interpret the final pages of Batman #40 this week.
A new era begins with an all-new Batman. DC will reveal the identity of who is inside the tech Batsuit in the Free Comic Book Day issue tomorrow.
See the all-new Dark Knight in Batman #41 in June – a month that introduces 25 new books including several new ones expanding the Batman and Robin legends.
What does Batman writer Scott Snyder say about the future of DC based on aftermath of Endgame:
“What I can tease you with is this: the Bat landscape has become something that is intensely inspiring to me and Greg. The new books that have come, the new take on Batgirl, Gotham Academy, Gotham by Midnight—all the books that are beginning in June as well, it’s become so vibrant. I feel like fans have resoundingly responded to change, risk and to bold storytelling with cheers, with this welcome, exuberant response,” Snyder told DC Comics.
“That has really changed creators’ perception of the fanbase across the line. I can tell you, talking to creator after creator here at DC, we all see it. The zeitgeist has changed, and so for us, this story really means burning everything down and starting something. This was the story where I remember first thinking [it would have to be] completely out of continuity because it’s so wacky, and then I realized that “Endgame” actually sets it up perfectly.
It’s something that is going to change the status of Batman in every book that has Batman in it. It really is a game changer, this one, in a big way and I hope you guys like it as much as we do because it is definitely the wackiest thing we’ve ever done.”
Batman #41, Robin Son of Batman #1, We Are Robin #1 arrive in June.
