DC Comics and The Next Batman: Second Son #1 Spoilers and Review follows.

A Big Surprise To End The First Issue!

This is a prequel limited series that unmasks, pun intended, Tim Fox prior to his eventual donning of the Batman mantle as seen in DC Future State.

Looks like Fox was some kind of military official or spy…

…that would go into hostile areas to overthrow dictators, bad guys, etc. as well as steal intel.

This mission is a bust as the intel…


…has been wiped and…

…Fox is now on the run.

Fisticuffs and bullets later…

…Fox escapes the compound and…

…heads back to his apartment where…

…Grifter and friend is waiting to take him back his father Lucius Fox?!

The Pulse:

Intriguing and action-packed story, impactful cliffhanger and solid art. An entertaining issue. 8 out of 10.
