Batman Sonderheft #36

In "Sulfurs Renaissance!", the duality of Brimstone’s existence takes center stage as two versions of the same man—one from Earth-2, one from Earth-1—wrestle for dominance across dimensions. Though separated by time and reality, their spirits remain linked, and when one is defeated, the other must bear the burden of his legacy. The story unfolds with a haunting exploration of identity, fate, and the cost of vengeance, all set against the shadowed legacy of Batman’s enduring presence.

In a moment that blurs time and memory, the comatose Sulfur awakens 28 years later to find himself aged and the world changed—Batman is gone, and the legacy he once knew has faded. Though shaken by the passage of time, Sulfur senses a deeper truth: another Earth, another Batman, might still stand.

In "Hölle auf Erden (Sulfurs Renaissance!)", Sulfur, having linked his mind to his Earth II counterpart, takes control of the duplicate body on Earth I with a single goal: to destroy Batman. As the Dark Knight faces a resurrected version of the fiery trap from their past, he must outwit a foe who’s learned from failure—only to find that one precise strike might be the key to breaking the connection before it’s too late.

In *Epilog (Sulfurs Renaissance!)*, the duality of Brimstone’s existence unfolds across two Earths: a man haunted by a darker counterpart he can sense on a spiritual plane. When his Earth-2 self is defeated by Batman and imprisoned, he channels his essence into his Earth-1 doppelgänger in 1983, seeking to rebuild his empire—only to face another Batman, and another defeat. The story explores the cost of that choice, as the original body withers into a vegetable, trapped in silence, while the other remains unaware of the life that was lived in his shadow.
