About the series
In Absolute Batman Zero Year (2025–present, DC), this single-issue series reimagines the Dark Knight’s origin through the lens of the Absolute Universe, a bold new continuity that strips Batman down to his rawest essentials. Written by Scott Snyder with art by Nick Dragotta, it offers a fresh, stripped-back take on the character’s first year of crime-fighting, emphasizing survival and ingenuity over high-tech gadgetry. As the foundational tale for this alternate reality, it matters as a stark, elemental entry point for one of DC’s most iconic heroes.
