The most up-to-date The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries miniseries simply wrapped up its 12-issue run this previous week, with a narrative in which the Mystery Inc. gang will get ‘Futurama-ed’ into the world of Batman Beyond. Though that glimpse of the longer term might have been the top of that series, you’ll be able to’t maintain good detectives down for lengthy. DC will convey The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries again in January 2024, this time as an ongoing series.
Scooby-Doo and the gang have been teaming up with the denizens of the DC Universe for the reason that launch of Scooby-Doo Team-Up in 2013. That series wrapped in 2019, and was adopted by a pair of twelve-issue The Batman and Scooby-Doo Mysteries miniseries. As in earlier series, The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries will see Mystery Inc. interacting with heroes and villains from the prolonged Bat-Family. Across the primary three problems with the series the gang will group with Nightwing to analyze a haunting at Haly’s Circus, wade by the muck of Slaughter Swamp with Solomon Grundy, and match wits with the feline fatale, Catwoman.
Among these engaged on the brand new ongoing series shall be returning creators like writers Sholly Fisch, Ivan Cohen, Amanda Deibert, and Matthew Cody, and artists Dario Brizuela and Scott Jeralds. New creators may even be becoming a member of the combination, together with author J. Torres and artist Megan Huang.
“After two twelve-issue limited series, not to mention fifty issues of Scooby-Doo Team-Up, you might think we’d run out of ideas,” author Sholly Fisch advised The Beat. “But with Scooby’s fifty-year history, plus eighty years of Batman, we’re just getting started! The new series will bring Scooby and the gang face to face with even more of Batman’s friends and foes, as the caped crusaders and meddling kids tackle a brand-new array of spooky mysteries.”
“Sholly and I have pulled almost every scrap of inspiration there is to find in our common childhood touchstone of the classic hardcover Batman: From the Thirties to the Seventies,” added author Ivan Cohen. “So, I’m moving on to some deep-cut Bronze Age favorites of mine making some guest appearances, many meeting Scooby and friends for the first time. And I have one issue that crosses elements of the Tom King Batman with the John Byrne era of Superman in ways no one is expecting.”
Fisch went on to tease much more concerning the series’s upcoming tales. “The circus where Nightwing grew up—haunted by Deadman? A museum of giant bowling pins and pinball machines robbed—by a giant? You might be used to Batman perching among gargoyles…but what happens when Gotham’s citizens start turning into gargoyles themselves? And those are just my stories! I can’t wait to see what Ivan, Matthew, and Amanda have in store too. But one thing’s for sure: You’ll find thrills, laughs, and Scooby snacks aplenty in the all-new Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries!”
Look for The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries to return to cabinets with an all-new #1 on Tuesday, January 2nd, 2024.
