Batman #63 Preview and Discussion

[Hilden B. Lade]

In this Wednesday’s Batman #63, the “Knightmares” saga continues. This time, however, rather than a villainous guest star, Batman will have to work with the no-longer-so-magical John Constantine. As shadows fall over Gotham, the Dark Knight finds himself lost in memory…or perhaps dream. He’s thinking about Selina Kyle. The Cat to his Bat. The Catwoman. The Bride. The almost-wife who is no longer anything to Bruce but a happiness that slipped through his fingers. John is here to help, but what does help mean for the lover spurned?

Check out the Beat’s exclusive preview of Batman #63 after the jump.

There are strange goings-on in the dark alleys of Gotham City, mysteries that will require a different skill set than the Caped Crusader’s if he’s going to stop the whole city from succumbing to the darkness. John Constantine, the Hellblazer, is a person with just those skills—but after the events of “The Witching Hour,” is Constantine in any condition to help the Dark Knight Detective?

At long last, the return of King's famous "Bat! Cat!" dialogue!

Ugh at this Tom King run.

[chachi]

Taking a break from Batman, at least thru the current nightmares issues. May jump back on in May? Will depend on the solicits.

Yeah, this issue totally does not look like a waste of time

[theoneandonly]

so random! story within a story. at least he isn't repeatedly saying that he is going to break bane (I am Bane) These Knight mares almost are lucid in comparison.

[nonsense man]

To much padding in his run instead of tight story telling. What should take 6 to twelve issues it takes him sixty and beyond

Nothing King writes is random. He's playing a long game and I couldn't be more excited by it.
