Exclusive Preview | Batman # 45

There’s a new Batman in Gotham City…and his name is James Gordon!

During the “Endgame” storyline, the original Batman “died,” but Bruce Wayne has resurfaced without any memory of his Dark Knight alterego. Gordon stepped into the role of a new, officially sanctioned Batman to help fill the void. But a new Batman inevitably means new villains. And Mr. Bloom has proven to be the deadliest threat yet for Gordon’s Batman!

In CraveOnline’s exclusive preview from Batman # 45, Gordon escapes from a deadly inferno only to find himself in dire straits at the hands of Bloom’s henchmen. As Gordon’s life hangs in the balance, the new Batman badly needs a rescue. But when you’re Batman, who comes to save you?

In the aftermath of this incident, “Gordon might have to reevaluate what it means to wear the cowl,” according to the solicitation copy for this issue. But Mr. Bloom is still out there, and without a Batman to protect it, Gotham City may be doomed!

Writer Scott Snyder, artist Greg Capullo and inker Danny Miki continue their epic run in Batman # 45, which will be released this Wednesday, October 14. And if you need more Batman in your life, here’s the Monster themed variant cover for Batman # 45 by Andy Kubert!
