This upcoming Wednesday, erupting from the events of H2SH, comes DC’s first-ever in-continuity, mature readers, ongoing Red Hood series! The creative team behind this new series is writer Gretchen Felker-Martin, artist Jeff Spokes, and letterer Becca Carey.
Jason Todd has left Gotham and Batman behind him. All he’s taking with him is his costume, his bike, and a metal briefcase containing two handguns (and lots of bullets). New Angelique seems like the perfect place for Red Hood to put down roots. There’s crime, vice, and corruption everywhere. When Jason discovers a superpowered serial killer who is targeting the city’s police, he finds himself sucked into a terrible and bleak conspiracy with seemingly no end in sight. But Jason isn’t the only person on the scene. Following his trail is Helena Bertinelli a.k.a. Huntress. Is she here to stop him or help him? What will happen when the two black sheep of the Bat-Family start working together? Get ready for Red Hood like you’ve always wanted to see him.
Here’s a preview of issue #1:
The first issue of Red Hood features a main cover by interior artist Jeff Spokes, with variant covers by Jim Lee, Jae Lee, Brian Bolland, Gabriele Dell’Otto, Kyuyong Eom, a blank-sketch variant, and a 1:25 variant by Nick Robles.
Red Hood #1 goes on sale at your local comic book store and digitally on September 10th.
