Mudface

Mudface clawed their way into DC's Modern Age with a striking debut in Detective Comics #945 in 2017, brought to life by writer James Tynion IV and artists Al Barrionuevo and Carmen Carnero during one of that title's most celebrated recent runs. Though their catalog footprint is compact — just eight appearances across 2017–2018 — the company Mudface keeps is anything but small, sharing pages with the likes of Basil Karlo, Batwoman, Cassandra Cain, and Stephanie Brown in the thick of Gotham's darkest corners. For collectors hunting the layered, ensemble-driven era of Detective Comics that made the title essential reading again, Mudface is a genuine piece of that puzzle worth tracking down.
