GOTHAM WAR Reading Guide

BATTLE LINES #1

The prelude to the event hits shelves on August 29th and will be written by Chip Zdarsky and Tini Howard and with art by Mike Hawthorne and Adriano Di Benedetto.

Crime is down in Gotham City… Could that be a bad thing? A coordinated effort in Gotham has led to a reduction in violent crime, but at what cost? Villains scatter as their lives begin to crumble under a new regime. And as Batman recovers from his epic battle through the Multiverse and the horrors of Knight Terrors, one name runs through his mind. One name at the heart of this new, safer Gotham…Catwoman.

A conflict that's been brewing for well over a year finally hits the streets, and it will fracture the Bat-Family as war erupts!

BATMAN #137

The event continues on September 5th in BATMAN #137 by Chip Zdarsky and Jorge Jimenez. 

Batman descends on Gotham City, full of rage and force, more driven than ever to save his home. But the new landscape has turned friends into foes. Can anyone stop his brutal justice? Should they?

CATWOMAN #57

The event heats up in CATWOMAN #57 by Tini Howard and Nico Leon out on September 19th.

While Batman finds himself more and more isolated, Selina is never alone. With a volunteer army and two powerful generals by her side, the ballet between her and Bruce enters its next act with a shocking twist!
