DC Comics has confirmed that after a blockbuster first week in stores, Sean Murphy’s Batman: Beyond the White Knight #1 is going back for a second printing. The new printing, available at local comic book shops on Tuesday, May 3, features a new main and 1:25 foil variant cover done by Murphy.
“I’m excited that fans are reacting so positively to the story,” said Murphy. “For anyone that missed it the first time, you have another chance to grab it!”
A lot can change in 10 years, especially in Gotham! Batman, a.k.a. Bruce Wayne, may be behind bars, but the real criminals are still out there. Gotham Motors CEO Derek Powers has seized control of the Wayne family’s assets and is using them to transform the GTO and the city they’ve sworn to protect. Crime is down, but at what cost? A new Batman has emerged in Powers’s city, and only Bruce is fully aware of the dangers to come. It’s time to destroy the mantle for good, but he’ll need one of his forgotten sons’ help to do so. Enter Jason Todd…the first Robin?! In this thrilling sequel to the blockbuster comic book hits Batman: White Knight and Batman: Curse of the White Knight, writer/artist Sean Murphy invites the audience to go beyond the Gotham they know to discover an engrossing new take on the city and its heroes. Welcome to Neo-Gotham and the world of Beyond the White Knight!
In our ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ review of the book, Neil said “A tantalising return to Sean Murphy’s Gotham. The ten year time jump acts as a tremendous reset of the White Knight world, moving the characters along and making room for the introduction of Terry McGinnis and Derek Powers.”
