The team of writer Mark Russell and Mike Allred have created a unique take on The Man of Steel with the Eisner Award-nominated Superman: Space Age, dropping one of DC's foundational Super Heroes into the real-world historical and cultural events of the 1960's. On March 26, the trio are poised to deliver an equally distinctive take on Batman, with the launch of their new DC series, Batman: Dark Age.
In an origin story like no other readers will witness how Bruce Wayne, Gotham City's favorite delinquent son, evolves into its protector, shaped by a city in turmoil, marching towards prophesied doom. In the hands of these acclaimed and talented storytellers, Gotham City comes alive like never before, filled with the iconic characters that have loved and hated Batman over the years. In Batman: Dark Age, fans get an opportunity to see Batman as a figure in American history, fighting for justice in a world gone mad.
