Batman Annual – DC Comics – (2016–2022) – Volume 3 – Annuals #1–2022

📘 Series Summary

Expanding on the DC Rebirth and Infinite Frontier eras, the Batman Annuals for the third volume provide oversized stories that dive deeper into the Dark Knight’s world. Featuring top-tier talent like Tom King, James Tynion IV, and Tom Taylor, these issues transition from intimate character studies to epic lore-expanding sagas. From the award-winning "Date Night" stories exploring the romance between Batman and Catwoman to the origins of new vigilantes like Clownhunter and Ghost-Maker, these annuals are essential companion pieces to the Batman mythos.

Visual masters like Lee Weeks, David Finch, and James Stokoe provide the artwork, creating a "showcase" feel for each installment. Notable highlights include Annual #2, a critically acclaimed journey through the past and future of the Bat and the Cat, and Annual #3, which recontextualizes the mission through the eyes of Alfred Pennyworth. Whether focusing on a quiet snowfall in Gotham or the high-tech warfare of Batman Inc., these annuals represent the very best of modern Dark Knight storytelling.

⭐ Why This Series Stands Out

  • Features the critically acclaimed "Some of These Days" story by Tom King and Lee Weeks (#2), widely considered a modern masterpiece.
  • Provides the definitive origin of Clownhunter (#5), featuring the kinetic and detailed art of James Stokoe.
  • Explores Alfred Pennyworth’s perspective (#3) in a poignant tale written by Injustice architect Tom Taylor.
  • Serves as the launchpad for the new Batman Inc. (#2022), led by the mysterious Ghost-Maker.
  • A rotating gallery of superstars: Scripted and illustrated by industry names including Neal Adams, Bilquis Evely, and Paul Dini.
  • Oversized format: Each issue offers 48 pages of full-color content, providing deep dives into Gotham's supporting cast.
