First Look at the New Batman Comic Series BATMAN AND THE SIGNAL
Here's our first look DC Comic's upcoming new series Batman and The Signal. It features Batman with Duke Thomas as The Signal, who will help the Dark Knight protect Gotham City. This will be a three-issue miniseries that "follows Duke’s trials and travails in high school and as a vigilante while introducing new enemies to fight.
I have to say that when I first saw the image above without reading what it was about, the first thought to go through my head was, "What did they do to Wolverine's costume?!" The Signals costume design looks like a combination of Batman and Wolverine. It was designed by Cully Hamner, who worked on Warren Ellis' Red and co-created the third Blue Beetle, Jaime Reyes. He also provided the comic art in the series.
The comic is being written by Scott Snyder and Tony Patrick. One thing is for sure, with all that bright yellow, The Signal will stick out like a sore thumb when attempting to lurk in the shadows with Batman. According to Nerdist, Snyder is calling the character "the daytime Batman."
Batman and The Signal #1 will be released on Wednesday, November 8. What do you think of The Signal's costume design?
