Daniel leading an art team that also includes Paul Pelletier and Scot Eaton.

Capitalizing on the 75th anniversary of the Boy Wonder, the series looks to focus on the Bat-family as a whole, based on the teaser image released, with the notable inclusion of Scarecrow and Dick Grayson standing out. The involvement of fan favorite Cassandra Cain is also welcome news, as she has been entirely absent in the DCU since the inception of the New-52 reboot. The series will begin shipping weekly on October 7th.
