RECAP: 2002- 2003 STORYLINE

If you don’t know the 2002-2003 storyline: “Hush” is a true Batman detective mystery, which sees the Dark Knight being stalked by an unseen foe. This shadowy manipulator not only sabotages Batman’s missions at key moments, but as the investigation quickly proves, this puppet master is also retraining Batman’s old rogues to work in new, coordinated ways. The deeper Batman looks into the matter, the clearer it becomes that he’s locked in deadly chess game with a player who is always two moves ahead – and worse yet, his enemy isn’t just playing Batman, but Bruce Wayne as well. The implications of that fact end up changing both Batman and Bruce’s worlds forever.

Hush is now famous for just how deeply it explored Batman and Bruce Wayne – as well as new dimensions of the Wayne family history. More than that though, the story approaches so many of the fan-favorite Batman rogues in some pretty hard-boiled detective Noir angles, revitalizing some of the classic enemies, while introducing some great new ones. It’s going to be interesting to see it play out in animated form; if we had to guess, the photo above depicts one of the earliest scenes in the story, when Batman is taking down Killer Croc on what he thinks is a routine hostage rescue mission.

When is it expected to release?

Batman: Hush is expected to release in sometime in 2019.
