Batman: Sins of the Father, by writer Christos Gage (Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Angel & Faith) and artist Raffaele Ienco (Black Knight), will catch readers up on the events between the first two seasons of the video game.

“I love the bold choices the Telltale Games folks made in their approach to Batman, by having Bruce Wayne discover his father was part of a criminal conspiracy" Gage told IGN. "I'm excited to contribute to this world and I can't wait for fans to see Raffaele bring the story to life. He is a great match to the visual style of the game, while adding his unique, hard-hitting take to it.”

“I’m thrilled to be making my DC debut drawing such a high-profile character like Batman, as well as working alongside the fantastic Christos Gage and our editor, Jim Chadwick," Ienco added. "I can’t wait to share what Gage and I have cooked up for the fans of this series.”
