(W) Mattson Tomlin
(A/CA) Andrea Sorrentino
Bruce Wayne’s mission as the Batman has only been underway for a year or so, but he can tell he’s making a difference. Unfortunately, he’s made some powerful enemies. All the traditional power brokers of Gotham resent the disruption the Batman has brought to town…and it seems one of them has a plan to neutralize him. There’s a second Batman haunting Gotham’s rooftops and alleys—and this one has no qualms about murdering criminals, live and on tape. With the entire might of the Gotham City Police Department and Gotham’s rich and powerful coming down on his head, Batman must find this imposter and somehow clear his name…but how can you prove your innocence from behind a mask? Director and screenwriter Mattson Tomlin (Project Power, Little Fish) has teamed up with Eisner-winning suspense and horror artist Andrea Sorrentino (Joker: Killer Smile, Gideon Falls) to create a wholly new version of Gotham City, informed by grim reality, where every punch leaves a broken bone and every action has consequences far, far beyond Batman’s imagination!

Reviews
A gorgeous, bleak Elseworlds with someone masquerading as a murderous version of the Batman. Gotham's one percent are sick of losing serious money and property to the damage caused by the real Bat. Could they be behind it? Best to ask them directly, eh Mr. Wayne?
When you love the artwork by Andrea Sorrentino, and you will, be sure to check out Primordial #1, on the racks today in our independent sections.
