Batman Day Signing With Christian Ward Celebrating the Launch of Batman: City of Madness
Whether you like you Batman Durrrrr durrr dur duuuuuurrrrrrr dur durrrrr... or more dana dana dana dana dana dana dana, we’ve got something for you! Saturday 21st September 2024 is BATMAN DAY!
To celebrate this entirely necessary annual celebration of the Dark Knight Detective we have an exceptionally special singing. Friend of Gosh!, the talented Christian Ward, will be launching his worthy entry into the host of Batman Canon with a signing between 1-2pm. City of Madness is a singular work that sits alongside Arkham Asylum, The Killing Joke, Hush and more as a classic story of the character. It’s an eldritch and demented take on Gotham and Batman’s rogues gallery and essential for any Bat Fan. Here’s what publishers DC have to say about the book -
“Buried deep beneath Gotham City there exists another Gotham.
Multi-Eisner award winner Christian Ward unleashes this cosmic-horror epic of the twisted Gotham Below.
Buried deep beneath Gotham City there exists another Gotham. This Gotham Below is a living nightmare, populated by twisted mirrors of our Gotham’s denizens, fueled by the fear and hatred flowing down from above. For decades, the doorway between the cities has been sealed and heavily guarded by the Court of Owls. But now the door swings wide, and the twisted version of the Dark Knight has escaped…to trap and train a Robin of his own.
Batman must form an uneasy alliance with the Court and its deadly allies to stop him—and to hold back the wave of twisted super-villains, nightmarish versions of his own nemeses, each one worse than the last, that’s spilling into his streets!
Visionary writer-artist Christian Ward unleashes a cosmic-horror take on Batman’s world, and readers will never look at Batman's villains the same way again.”
Alongside Christian’s signing we’ll be giving away one free Batman Day comic with any purchase of a Batman comic or graphic novel whilst stocks last! And we also have a special exclusive mini-print to accompany sales of the books too!
If you’d like a copy with the mini-print, you can pre-order one for mail-order or collection by clicking the link here. Pop along this Batman day on Saturday 21st September from 1pm to meet Christian and pick up some Bat goodies.
