[Geoffrey_Le_Magnifiq (Geoffrey Le Magnifique)]

‘Batman: Dark Patterns’ 12-issue series set to launch December by Dan Watters ( writing ) and Hayden Sherman (art) .

A new 12 issue series delving into Batman’s early years !

Et bien, ça n’arrête pas les primes années de Batsy en ce moment : Batman & Robin Year One , The Last Halloween…
Apparemment, la série se situe aux environs de l’an 3. 12 numéros, 4 meurtres , un Batman qui bosse plus avec sa bagnole, ses poings et les Gothamites qui sont plus de la moitié à penser qu’il n’est qu’une légende urbaine.
Petite pique de ma part : pendant ce temps, Gargoyles of Gotham est pas encore terminée.

Ouais c’est Batman 89 en sérieux. Wahou super.

Case 01: We Are Wounded A series of sickeningly gruesome murders has sent shock waves through Gotham. Are these the random works of a serial killer, or is there something more sinister at play? Batman attempts to get to the bottom of the mystery before any more victims are claimed.

Lu, c’est vraiment pas mal. Il y a du Risso et du Mignola dans les planches de Sherman.
Batman versus Pinhead, forcément, c’est intriguant.

A NEW CASE KICKS OFF WITH A GRUESOME DISCOVERY! CASE 02: There is a strange tower in Gotham City where the voices of the living and the dead echo. Its inhabitants are in a standoff with the police — with one officer dead and another held hostage inside, a riot seems all but guaranteed… unless Batman can navigate the building and save the missing police officer. But what the Caped Crusader discovers is that the people of the tower are following the direction of a single, strangely familiar voice that thrums throughout the building… and the voice wants blood.
