Batman Beyond: Neo-Gothic

In Batman Beyond: Neo-Gothic (2023–2024, DC), writers Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing, with artist Max Dunbar, send Terry McGinnis’s Batman into a shadowy corner of Neo-Gotham where the city’s forgotten underworld has taken on a monstrous, almost supernatural life of its own. This six-issue series deepens the Batman Beyond mythos by pitting Terry against a menace that feels both ancient and eerily modern, testing his skills as a detective and a hero in a city that has never stopped hiding secrets. It matters as a focused, atmospheric thriller that reclaims the gothic horror roots of the Batman legacy while expanding the future world of the character.
