Spoilers

DC Comics and DC Future State: The Next Batman #1 Spoilers and Review follows.

 Tim Fox Gets A Name Change and Becomes Batman As Fox Family Troubles Percolate!

A few more variant covers on top of the preceding too.

Plus the main cover.

The opening story featuring the Next Batman includes…

…the Fox family dynamic with…

…Tim Fox wanting to be called Jace Fox, but the family remains fractured.

Jace Fox then flexes some muscles as…

…Batman vs. a…

…gang of Banes…

…plus other…

 

…emerging threats.


Then a back-up featuring the Outsiders and…

 

…another back-up this time featuring the return of the Arkham Knight and a new Arkham Knights team.


The Pulse:

An ok opening story with solid art featuring Tim Fox as the Next Batman. The Outsiders back-up was weak compared to the surprise goodness of the Arkham Knights feature. 6.5 out of 10.
