Collection: Batman/Superman – DC Comics – 2019–2021 – Volume 2 – #1–22

📘 Series Summary

Spinning out of the reality-shattering events of The Batman Who Laughs, this volume of Batman/Superman delivers a high-stakes thriller centered on paranoia and corrupted legacy. Written initially by Joshua Williamson and illustrated by David Marquez, the series begins with the terrifying "Secret Six" arc. The Dark Knight and the Man of Steel must hunt down six heroes who have been infected by the Dark Multiverse's toxin, turning them into sleeper agents for the Batman Who Laughs. The mystery of who has been turned—including icons like Shazam and Supergirl—tests the trust between the world's finest heroes to its breaking point.

The series later transitions into a mind-bending multiversal odyssey under writer Gene Luen Yang and artist Ivan Reis. This era introduces the "Archive of Worlds," where Bruce and Clark encounter Golden Age-inspired pocket realities crafted by the sinister Auteur.io. From battling a zombie army of Kandorians with General Zod to facing off against a 5th-dimensional threat involving Mr. Mxyzptlk, this volume balances dark psychological horror with grand, cosmic science fiction, serving as a definitive bridge through the Infinite Frontier era of DC Comics.
