Bruce Wayne is back as a stronger Dark Knight.

Is Duke Thomas Batman’s new sidekick?

Just don’t call him Robin…yet….maybe ever.

A new era for the Dark Knight begins with Batman: Rebirth #1 as Scott Snyder passes the torch (or is batarang a better choice?) to Tom King for an adventure that revamps a classic villain and gives fan-favorite Thomas a new role.

Thomas is one of several new characters from fans thought could become the next Robin.

Snyder, King and artist Mikel Janin team up for a one-shot that sets up Batman: Rebirth with an intense story and a less brooding Dark Knight who is thinking forward and changing things up.

Upbeat Batman and…..code-name to be revealed? Continue reading BATMAN: REBIRTH NEW PARTNER REVEALED
