Absolute Batman marks the beginning of DC's new All In publishing initiative, launched in late 2024, which allows renowned creators to explore these iconic characters without the constraints of established continuity. This freedom enables writers and artists to infuse their unique vision into the characters. If you're new to the Absolute Universe, our reading guide and release schedule can help you get started.

IGN's Jesse Schedeen recently interviewed the creators following the wrap-up of their first arc. Absolute Batman teases the involvement of classic villains like Bane and the Joker, and Scott Snyder tantalizingly hints, " . . . this Joker is already really terrifying by the time he meets Batman. But his relationship with Batman is part of something that really evolves as the series goes." Fans are left to ponder how this intriguing statement will unfold in future issues.
