According to a report in The Guardian, the comics publishers revealed that the next Batman will be black. It also said that John Ridley, the screenwriter of “12 Years a Slave” will write the new series which will feature artwork by Nick Derington and Laura Braga. Like most times, the series is set in future Gotham City, Batman is dead. A new Batman, Fox will rise to save the city.
Ridley said, “They appreciate the things that I do. They’re happy for me. They’re great supporters. But they would much rather see Black Panther than 12 Years of a Slave, let’s be honest.” He further added, “So to be able to write the next Batman, for them to know that this next Batman is going to be black, everybody else on the planet can hate it, have a problem with it, denigrate it, but I have my audience and they already love it.”
The report states that Fox first appeared as a character in Batman in 1979. Fox will make his first appearance as Batman in the four-issue Future State: The Next Batman in January, with his story to continue – with a new sidekick – in February in the Batman: Black & White anthology series.
The series will be part of a two-month “event” called DC Future State, in which new characters will take up the mantles of the comic publisher’s key characters.
