Batman: Arkham Knight Comic Out Today

by Elise Favis on Mar 11, 2015 at 11:45 AM

The print edition of the comic Batman: Arkham Knight Volume One is out today. The prequel will focus on events prior to the upcoming video game Batman: Arkham Knight, where Joker is dead and Arkham City has shut down. Bruce Wayne is in excruciating pain whilst recovering from injuries, and questions whether Gotham still needs him as Batman. The comic was written by Batman and Robin writer Peter J. Tomasi, and the art created by both Viktor Bogdanovic and Art Thibert. 

DC Comics is holding a competition, where they are giving away 50 free digital copies of the comic. Participants must share their favorite Batman: Arkham moment via Twitter, with the hashtag #DCArkhamKnight. Read up on the DC Comics website for full information and rules on the contest.

The comic is being sold for $3.99. If you're bursting with excitement for the upcoming Batman: Arkham Knight game, check out our cover story hub from last year and our video feature focusing on what to expect in the game's story
