The real Dark Knight is back on the streets of Gotham City in Batman #50.

We’ve seen the hints but in 2016 it’s official.

Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo wrap up their latest arc as their Batman partnership draws to a close…for now.

In last week’s issue we saw a huge twist when Bruce seemed to start getting his memory back when a “familiar” face joined him.

“And where is the Batman?!” Jack Nicholson’s Joker famously asked Gotham City in Tim Burton’s Batman.

He’s right here in the pages of Batman #41 and he’s absolutely badass.

Scott Snyder, Greg Capullo, Mark Doyle and the rest of Team Batman could have kept on with a winning formula. After The New 52 rebirth featuring Bruce and the Bat family against the Court of Owls, Batman faced The Death of the Family in a battle with the Joker, then went back to Zero Year for a origin filled thriller against The Riddler and finally a game-changing rematch The Joker in Endgame – they could have redefined a classic villain with an action-packed epic sure to keep satifying fans. Instead the team have taken a huge creative risk and by the first chapter alone it’s going to be huge payoff. Continue reading WELCOME ALL-NEW BATMAN
