Collection: Batman: The Audio Adventures – DC Comics – 2022–2023 – Volume 1 – #1–7

📘 Series Summary

Picking up where the season finale of the award-winning HBO Max scripted podcast left off, Batman: The Audio Adventures translates the show’s unique retro-noir sensibility to the comic book page. Written by series creator Dennis McNicholas (Saturday Night Live), this 7-issue miniseries maintains the dry wit and pulpy atmosphere of the audio show. The story follows Batman as he investigates a series of brutal attacks on Gotham’s underworld, leading him to a group of mysterious assassins seeking the fabled sword of King Scimitar.

The visual style, provided by artists Anthony Marques and J. Bone, perfectly mirrors the show's 1940s-meets-1960s aesthetic. As the Dark Knight uncovers a conspiracy involving Ra's al Ghul and a delusional, evolving Killer Croc, the series also keeps tabs on a kidnapped Robin and a city-wide outbreak of "monster serum." It is a rare "podcast sequel" that captures the exact tone of its source material, offering a fun, stylized, and slightly campy take on the Gotham mythos.

⭐ Why This Series Stands Out

• Directly continues the narrative from the critically acclaimed podcast, written by the show’s lead creator.
• Features a distinctive retro-animated art style that stands out from the grittier mainline Batman titles.
• Introduces The Demon’s Brood, a sect of ninjas under the command of Ra's al Ghul, as the primary antagonists.
• Offers a unique, tragic, and delusional interpretation of Killer Croc that becomes the emotional center of the story.
• Showcases stunning Variant Covers by legends like Michael Allred and Dave Johnson.
• Provides a standalone adventure that is accessible to new readers while being a must-read for fans of the audio series.
