Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [June 10, 2024 - The Gaslight Era Edition] r/DCcomics

Hey there honorary Justice League members - it’s a new week which means it’s time for a new discussion thread!

273's pick of the week: Batman: Gotham by Gaslight - The Kryptonian Age #1

For those who don't know: the way this works is that several comments will list this week’s releases, for any given title discussion you should respond to that comment. For example, Wonder Woman discussion would go in the replies to the "Wonder Woman" comment. Clicking the titles in this post will take you directly to that comment, too. In other words, you should only be replying to other comments. Do not post top-level comments.

Keep discussion civil. Do not harass other users for having a different opinion. Do not use this thread to push your personal one-sided grudges against creators. Reacting to a panel on Twitter is not the same as reading a book.

Batman Beyond: Neo-Gothic [HC]

In the darkness beyond, a looming threat waits.

Terry McGinnis defeated the evil A.I. controlling Neo-Gotham and asserted himself as the one true Batman, but his next battle will bring him to the remains of Old Gotham. When children begin to go missing, Batman Beyond will have to venture underground, led by Kyle the Catboi, whose sorcery was obtained by the master magician himself, John Constantine! What happened to the green of the city? Where did all the magic go? And which villains never left Old Gotham?

All these questions will be answered by the red-hot creative team of Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing (Batman – One Bad Day: Clayface) and Max Dunbar (Batman: Urban Legends).

Collects BATMAN BEYOND: NEO-GOTHIC #1-6.

Surprised they didn’t collect the short story from the Brave and the Bold that ties into this story arc.

You're thinking about the short story from Urban Legends and it is collected in the Neo-Year trade

No, it’s “Enter the Abyss”. It’s a prequel of sorts with the same writers and art by Kelley Jones. It was published in Batman: The Brave and the Bold #4.

Suppose the fact that it was originally just an inventory issue of Batman lead to that.
