Batman Is Jaw-Droppingly Surreal in New Detective Comics Cover Art

screenrant.com:

With a fresh creative team and cover art worthy of a framed canvas, Batman has never looked more gothic than he does in the new cover for Detective Comics #1062's second printing—nor more like something from a beautiful nightmare.

Detective Comics is one of DC Comics' flagship titles—the publishing house, «DC,» is technically named after this long-running book. Batman himself debuted in Detective Comics #27, and now the title is primarily home to Batman stories in addition to other Gotham City characters. Detective Comics #1062 sees the start of a new run on the title, with a fresh creative team to boot: Ram V, Rafael Albuquerque, Dave Stewart, and Ariana Maher.

The new 'Tec team attracted a great deal of attention, and the first printing of their debut issue sold out. DC recently announced that Detective Comics #1062 is going back to press for a second printing, this time featuring a new cover by Julian Totino Tedesco. The cover is straight out of a surrealist's dream: Batman's cowl is cracked open like an egg, and a large red bat is flying out. This is all rendered in Tedesco's gorgeous painted style, with the title of the newest arc presented prominently: "Detective Comics presents Gotham Nocturne."
