‘All-Star Batman’ by Snyder and Romita touted as similar to ‘Fury Road’
In the DC Comics June Previews catalog, the initial creative team of “All-Star Batman” — consisting of longtime “Batman” scribe Scott Snyder and veteran artist John Romita Jr. — offered up some clues for their upcoming Two-Face-centric arc, which is being touted as “Mad Max: Fury Road” meets “The Defiant Ones.”
The catalog notes that “All-Star Batman” is Snyder’s “one epic Batman story left to tell.” He’ll be working on the series with Romita Jr., in addition to Jock, Declan Shalvey, Tula Lotay and Sean Murphy.
“Batman takes Harvey Dent cross-country with an offer to fix his face,” Snyder said, teasing the first arc. They note in the mag that Two-Face offers “a massive reward to anyone who can stop them.”
Snyder added, “This is Two-Face like you’ve never seen him. I want to make him really scary, a modern Jekyll and Hyde. When he was D.A., Harvey exploded his job to get dirt on everyone. Two-Face is about to exploit all that…sort of like the hacker group Anonymous.”
