Mr. Freeze might help Batman defeat Poison Ivy. This week sees the release of the fourteenth issue of the ongoing Batman series, and the Dark Knight’s target has finally been revealed. As Ivy’s botanical creations spread across the city, Batman urgently needs to locate Mr. Freeze. The cold-blooded villain is far from pleased with the situation—and he may well be the key to stopping the rampaging villainess. Meanwhile, butler Verity Pennyworth is forced to defend the manor against attackers who have clearly underestimated exactly who they are dealing with. Batman’s stronghold turns into a battlefield in the dead of night, with dawn fast approaching. The comic hits shelves on October 7, 2026.

The Absolute Batman is just getting started.

The "Absolute Batman" series shows no signs of slowing down, consistently throwing all sorts of surprises at readers. Absolute Batman #23 will be released on August 12th. It features the long-seen Clayface. Fans have already theorized that Bruce's father, Thomas Wayne, may be hiding behind this creature's hideous visage. This was deduced from a single line from Scarecrow at the end of issue 20. As is typical for this series, it's constantly surrounded by fan theories.
