Just in time for Matt to post an edition of Too Many Comics that highlights the Dark Knight himself, today on DCU: The Source they announced another Batman mini-series. This one comes with quite the pedigree however, as 100 Bullets creator Brian Azzarello and Matteo Casali will be writing this four issue mini-series titled Batman: Europa. Not only that but the entire series will feature layouts by Giuseppe Camuncoli with additional art from Diego Latore, Jock, and none other than superstar artist and DC Co-Publisher Jim Lee.
That’s right.
The breakdown of the series is below, but I’m sure many of you who are burned out on this character will likely still pick it up thanks to the last artist involved – check out his first cover at the top of this post.
In the pages of BATMAN: EUROPA, the impossible has happened — the Batman is on the brink of defeat, at the hands of a virus with no cure. Surely there’s someone that can help him? Well, there is — the Joker. Who infected Batman with the virus? What does the Joker have to do to save him? And how can it all happen before the Dark Knight collapses? Together, the unlikely teammates and arch-foes travel through Europe cobbling together clues while the clock ticks down.
