If you haven't had a chance to check out what Spotify and Warner Bros. Discovery have been doing over on the audio drama side of the DCU, you should definitely carve out time in your busy schedule because the Winston Duke (Black Panther)-starring Batman Unburied was one of the most creative takes on The Dark Knight in a very long time. Coming up, they have Christina Ricci (Yellowjackets, Wednesday) & Billy Magnussen (No Time To Die, Made for Love) on tap to lead Harley Quinn and The Joker: Sound Mind, a 7-episode audio series written & directed by Eli Horowitz (Homecoming). And now, we've learned that Colman Domingo (Fear the Walking Dead) will be taking on the role of Batman (aka Bruce Wayne), joining Hasan Minhaj's (The Daily Show) Edward Nygma (aka The Riddler) in the Spotify limited series The Riddler: Secrets In The Dark. Set to premiere on October 10th, the audio adventure finds Domingo's Caped Crusader forced to work together with Minhaj's Riddler when a vigilante begins knocking off Gotham's villains. And considering Nygma is one of Batman's biggest big-bads, it wouldn't be a spoiler to say that the Riddler's on the vigilante's list, too.
