The Bat-Man: Second Knight (2025-)

The year is 1940. The shadow of a global war deepens the fear in Gotham City. A new terror has eclipsed the memory of last year's monsters: a killer leaving bodies in theatrical displays, each marked by a hangman's noose. The Bat-Man pursues this specter through rain-slicked alleys and opulent, decaying theaters. His investigation intersects with Lois Lane, a reporter from the Daily Star in town for a premiere, who quickly becomes entangled in the case. A new master of fear is orchestrating the chaos, turning the city's paranoia into a weapon. The air in Gotham is thick with dread and the smell of wet wool and cordite.
