Orphan

Stepping out of the shadows of the Modern Age, Orphan made their debut in 2017 courtesy of creator Peter Thannisch, landing in the pages of Panini Deutschland's Batman – Detective Comics — a series that puts them in remarkably distinguished company, sharing adventures with the likes of Bruce Wayne, Kate Kane, Batwoman, and Cassandra Cain. Though their catalog footprint of 18 appearances is compact, the quality of that company speaks volumes, placing Orphan squarely in the heart of Gotham's rich tapestry of complex, shadow-dwelling characters. For collectors with a taste for the darker corners of the Modern Age Batman universe — and an eye for figures whose stories are still being uncovered — Orphan is a compelling name to know.
