Joshua Williamson and Simone Di Meo are working on a new Batman And Robin series, out from DC Comics in a month. I have been asked if it will be set before the current Gotham War series or after it. Well, best as I can work out, neither. It will be set during it. With Bruce Wayne and Damian Wayne living in Bruce's Brownhouse property in Gotham, publicly as father and son. Only Waynes In The Building. And clearly still out of sorts with the rest of the Batfamily over the Gotham War situation. But Catwoman's scheme to manage the crime of Gotham still in play, just not able to cover every criminal enterprise in Gotham, and there's plenty for the dynamic duo to deal with. And suggesting that Catwoman's New Gotham may be a little more permanent than we had presumed. Also, maybe these remaining henchmen aren't men at all? And yes, Damian will be going to the local high school…
