An essential member of the Bat-Household makes a stunning return within the preview of Batman vs. Robin #1. Father and son go head-to-head within the upcoming five-issue miniseries from author Mark (Batman/Superman: World’s Most interesting) and artist Mahmud Asrar (Conan the Barbarian), who’s making his return to DC. Batman vs. Robin spins out of Waid’s Batman/Superman title and the “Shadow Warfare” crossover between Batman, Robin, and Deathstroke Inc. Because the preview reveals, Bruce Wayne’s longtime butler and confidant Alfred Pennyworth seems to be again from the useless, although the magical nature of the sequence casts some doubt on the proceedings.
The Batman vs. Robin #1 preview begins by recapping the occasions between the Dark Knight and Boy Wonder, with Damian Wayne leaving his father to go off on an journey of self-discovery at Lazarus Island. Subsequent, Bruce Wayne returns to Wayne Manor, which he deserted throughout James Tynion IV and Jorge Jimenez’s “Joker Warfare” storyline in Batman. Bruce is not positive why he is come again to his ancestral residence, and but he feels as if a drive is maintaining him there for some unknown motive. It does not take lengthy to determine what’s behind that unnatural feeling, after a knock on the door reveals Alfred Pennyworth alive once more.
Damian blamed himself for Alfred’s demise by the hands of the villain Bane, which prompted a rift between Batman and Robin. The Caped Crusader and different members of the Bat-Household have tried to reassure Damian that he is not in charge, nonetheless. If Alfred really is again from the useless, then it is going to have a significant impression on each our central characters.
“One thing is horribly improper within the magic realm, and it looks like Damian Wayne is likely to be the reason for this by some means,” Waid says within the Batman vs. Robin trailer. “Zatanna is clearly a giant a part of Difficulty #1. Constantine, The Demon, Felix Faust, Tannarak… You are going to be seeing as most of the magic characters as we now have within the DC Universe. With Batman/Superman: World’s Most interesting, we have made no secret that the satan Nezha, who was the villain there, can be going to be one of many large villains in Batman vs. Robin.”
The prolific author then teased how the conclusion of Batman vs. Robin can have main ramifications throughout the publishing line. “Batman vs. Robin ties very strongly into the way forward for the DC Universe,” Waid teased. “There’s one thing that occurs within the climax that can have an effect on dozens and dozens of DC characters, minor and main.”
The outline of Batman vs. Robin reads, “Deep within the coronary heart of Lazarus Island, the demonic legacy of the al Ghul household line has finally been freed, and the Satan Nezha is out for blood. To reclaim his whole domination over planet Earth, Nezha has supercharged magic—anybody who dares use it’s overcome by a demonic evil that supercharges their skills to harmful, unpredictable, and in some instances lethal ranges! With Damian in Nezha’s clutches and Bruce haunted by the return of an outdated buddy, the Dark Knight and the Boy Wonder are pitted towards each other within the battle of the century!”
