Can you believe little Robin is turning 75? DC Entertainment is ready to celebrate everyone's sidekick.
The big news is the announcement of the follow up to BATMAN ETERNAL. There is a little change and a reason we're talking about it here. Later this year we'll see BATMAN AND ROBIN ETERNAL.
BATMAN & ROBIN ETERNAL, the sequel to the blockbuster weekly series BATMAN ETERNAL, will begin on October 7 with weekly installments over the course of six months. Scott Snyder (BATMAN) and James Tynion IV (BATMAN ETERNAL, CONSTATINE: THE HELLBLAZER) will act as “showrunners” for the series with Tynion as lead writer. Supporting Tynion will be Snyder, Tim Seeley (GRAYSON), Genevieve Valentine (CATWOMAN), Steve Orlando (MIDNIGHTER), Jackson Lanzing & Collin Kelly (HACKTIVIST) and Ed Brisson (SHELTERED), all scripting key issues of the weekly series. Artists contributing to the series include Tony S. Daniel (DEATHSTROKE), Paul Pelletier and Scot Eaton.
It was also mentioned in BATMAN AND ROBIN ETERNAL would be 26 issues. We'll also see the return of CASSANDRA CAIN in the DCU! James Tynion IV said, "She plays a very very central role in the story."
DC also shared an infographic with the evolution of the various Robins over the years.
If that wasn't enough, in December we'll see a five week "Robin War" crossover with GOTHAM ACADEMY, ROBIN: SON OF BATMAN and WE ARE ROBIN.
"Robin War" will be feature two bookend one-shot specials written by Tom King (GRAYSON) and story by King, Lee Bermejo and Pat Gleason, with art by Khary Randolph and more.
