The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #5
In "The Show Must Go... Away," the Mystery Inc. gang stumbles upon a bizarre tourist trap called "The Slaughter Swamp Experience," where thrill-seekers line up to snap selfies with a swamp-zombie version of Solomon Grundy. Batman’s already on the case, having recently locked Grundy away in Blackgate, making the undead performer’s sudden return a mystery even he can’t quite explain. Written by J. Torres and illustrated by Scott Jeralds, with colors by Carrie Strachan and letters by Saida Temofonte, this 2025 adventure blends Gotham’s grit with Scooby-Doo’s classic charm, all wrapped in a cover by Dario Brizuela.

Entrepreneur Cyril Gold has turned his worthless swampland just outside Gotham into a destination activity called "The Slaughter Swamp Experience", where enthusiastic, phone-camera-toting young people sign-up for Gold's "Paranormal Tours" in the hopes of getting a selfie with swamp-zombie Solomon Grundy. The Mystery Inc. gang chances upon Gold's unusual enterprise only to find Batman already investigating it because he put Grundy in Blackgate Penitentiary shortly before.
