Prolific DC writer (and multiple Eisner Award winner) Tom King capped off last weekendâs Comic-Con International in San Diego by revealing a new piece of art by Batman/Catwoman artist Clay Mann.The scribe shared the artwork on Twitter, with a message thanking fans for all of their support. âHad an astoundingly great time at SDCC, one of my favorite cons ever,â King wrote. âAs a small thank you for all the support for Strange, the Eisners, Bat/Cat and everything, hereâs some transcendent @Clay_Mann_ and @tomeu_morey art Iâm definitely not allowed to share. Coming up in Batman...âThe tweet was accompanied a full page splash by Mann and Tomeu Morey featuring Batman lifting up Catwoman in his arms, the two locked in a passionate kiss on the beach â in their full costumes, no less.
Last week, King kicked off his final storyline on Batman âCity of Baneâ along with artists Tony S. Daniel and Mitch Gerads. The storyline will conclude in Batman #85, Kingâs final issue on the title. Then, the events of the book will spin-off into his and Mann's 12-issue Batman/Catwoman.
Batman/Catwoman #1, by Tom King and Clay Mann, arrives in January 2020 from DC.
