Batman Beyond's New Suit is So Dangerous, Bruce Wouldn't Even Wear It
Warning: contains spoilers for Batman: Beyond the White Knight #1!
In a new preview, DC Comics has dropped a bombshell about Batman Beyond’s suit: it was so dangerous Batman refused to wear it! In Batman: Beyond the White Knight #1, on sale March 29th in print and digital, Terry McGinnis arrives in artist Sean Murphy’s Batman: White Knight universe with a stunning twist about his iconic uniform.
The White Knight universe, created by Sean Murphy, is one of the most unique takes on the Batman mythos in recent years. Beginning with 2017’s Batman: White Knight and continuing in the follow-up Batman: Curse of the White Knight as well as a Harley Quinn spin-off miniseries, Murphy has skewered traditional Batman tropes, reframing both his battles against the Joker as well as his ongoing war on crime. Curse of the White Knight ended with Batman changing the focus of his mission; instead of fighting crime dressed as a giant bat, he would invest his vast fortune in social betterment programs across Gotham. Murphy has also incorporated Harley Quinn, Azrael and, at the end of Curse of the White Knight, Red Hood into the universe, and now it is Batman Beyond’s turn. In Batman: Beyond the White Knight, readers learn Bruce’s efforts to better Gotham paid off, creating the Neo-Gotham familiar to Batman Beyond fans, but with this being the White Knight universe, events will unfold much differently. The issue is written and illustrated by Sean Murphy, colored by Dave Stewart and lettered by Andworld Designs.
