Tim Burton’s BATMAN Returns (In Comic Form) This Year!

Tim Burton’s Batman will return – in comic book form. Sam Hamm, the writer behind Burton’s original film is crafting an all-new story set in the classic movie’s world dubbed Batman ’89. Joe Quinones (Dial H for Hero) will illustrate.

Check out the killer cover art and synopse below.

Continuing the twisted adventures of DC’s Dark Knight from Tim Burton’s seminal classic Batman movies, Batman ’89 brings in screenwriter Sam Hamm and artist Joe Quinones to pull on a number of threads left dangling by the prolific director. The gothic mentality behind the world, while still rooted in a sense of realism, helped inform many of DC’s global fans’ first impressions on the Dark Knight’s Gotham. In the new Batman ’89 comic, Hamm and Quinones will help usher in the return of Selina Kyle/Catwoman and will debut a new Robin! Plus, Quinones has a vision for Harvey Dent/Two-Face that is as close to movie magic as comics get!
