Now that the world knows Tim Fox is behind the mask fighting against The Magistrate in Gotham City, what’s the truth behind his origin and his connection to the current DC Universe? Featuring art by Tony Akins (Jack of Fables), Travel Foreman (Animal Man, Birds of Prey) and Mark Morales (Justice League, Deathstroke, REPRESENT!/”It’s A Bird”) this miniseries answers the questions behind Tim’s estrangement from Lucius Fox and the rest of the Fox family and his evolution from man of mystery to Gotham’s newest guardian.
The Next Batman: Second Son #1, by John Ridley, Tony Akins, Travel Foreman and Mark Morales, goes on sale Feb. 23 from DC. In the meantime, the story of Tim Fox as the new Dark Knight will continue to unfold in the pages of Future State: The Next Batman.
