Preview: The Breakneck Speed of Batman #67 by Tom King and Lee Weeks
Batman #67 is out in nine days, from Tom King and Lee Weeks, continuing Batman's nightmarish tale of being rapped in dreams and unable to escape.
The "Knightmares" continue as Batman chases a new foe in an impossible race. Over rooftops, across alleyways, up and down the streets of Gotham City, this lightning-fast crook outsmarts the Dark Knight at every turn. Is that because the man under the mask is someone more familiar than he knows? Artist Lee Weeks returns to BATMAN for an all-out action issue unlike any you've seen before.
And how does that all-out action exhibit itself? Why by running from one side of the panel to the other in active defenestration…
Everything moves from left to right, in the Western reading tradition. Elements enter and leave, we only see them partially. And that's in contrast to those that are staying as still as possible – such as being sat uo in bed, reading. No one is moving anywhere in that position.
Batman #67 is published on March 20th.
