Batman: Knightwatch – DC Comics – (2022–2023) – Volume 1 – Limited Series – #1–5

📘 Series Summary

Batman: Knightwatch is a five-issue all-ages limited series written by J. Torres with art by Erich Owen and Marcelo Di Chiara. Following an Arkham breakout, Batman and allies hunt escapees like Clayface using a new informant network called Knightwatch, inspired by Batgirl's social media tracking.

Issues spotlight Penguin's suspicious heroism (#2), Mad Hatter's villain hat collection targeting Batman's cowl (#3), Firefly's fiery revenge (#4), and kids imagining Batman's ultimate adventure as a comic (#5).

⭐ Why This Series Stands Out

  • **All-ages accessibility** blends modern tech (social media networks) with classic rogues in light-hearted Arkham hunts.[web:1]
  • Introduces **Knightwatch network** as Penny-One's organized spy system, evolving Batgirl's informal tips into Gotham intelligence.[web:1]
  • Rotating **art teams** (Owen/Di Chiara) deliver vibrant, kid-friendly action across Clayface, Penguin, Mad Hatter, Firefly pursuits.[web:1]
  • Meta finale (#5) has Knightwatch kids creating their own Batman comic, tying into real-world comic themes.[web:1]
  • Recent modern series with **Near Mint stock** at cover price, ideal entry for younger collectors or Bat-family completions.[web:1]
