Product Details

Absolute Batman #19 is a major modern key issue serving as the official debut storyline for Absolute Scarecrow (Dr. Jonathan Crane) within Scott Snyder's radical reinvention of the DC timeline. Shifting the narrative focus directly toward the eerie underbelly of the ARK M facility, this pivotal issue reveals a heavily altered, deeply terrifying design for the iconic villain. Tim Bradstreet’s gritty, highly textured cover artwork perfectly captures this dark dystopian shift, making this restricted retail incentive set an essential milestone for comic investors tracking the primary character expansions across the expanding Absolute Universe imprint. The standard Trade Dress version is generally restricted to 3,000 copies, while the textless Virgin Variant and the ultra-premium Virgin Foil Variant are highly limited store exclusives restricted to print runs of roughly 1,000 total manufactured copies worldwide per style. First storyline appearance of Absolute Scarecrow within the new continuity. In-Store Release Date: 15 April 2026. ALL Bagged and boarded NM+
