SDCC: Absolute Batman Will Be Beating Up White Nationalists

SDCC: Daniel Warren Johnson has Absolute Batman beating up white nationalists in his new Absolute Batman Annual out in October

The Gotham panel at San Diego Comic-Con with Batman editor Rob Levin, Matt Fraction, Scott Snyder, Nick Dragotta, Daniel Warren Johnson, Dan Jurgens, and Kyle Higgins onstage has just finished. Daniel Warren Johnson is working on the new Absolute Batman Annual from DC Comics in October, which, as the solicitation tells us, is about how Batman gets his Batmobile. And while on the panel there are jokes about Absolute Batman getting his Batmobile from a Carmax, and Daniel Warren Johnson stating that he had to find a real monster truck that still uses car keys rather than electronic access, Daniel Warren Johnson also talked about the real-world relevance of his Absolute Batman Annual story, talking about his anger at the current world and how that will play out in the comic book. And he raised the roof in the room by concluding, about Absolute Batman Annual, with the line “Batman beating up white nationalists.” Oh look, that looks like them right here.
