Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee reuniting for two more Batman: Hush stories

October 20th, 2024 by Marc Comments

Jeph Loeb fans have much to celebrate as not only is there a new Long Halloween book on shelves right now but we’re getting another Hush story next year too. Well, two new Hush stories, actually.

It was revealed at New York Comic Con that, twenty years after the original Hush book (20 years?!?!), Jim Lee and Loeb are reuniting to bring us a follow-up to one of DC and Batman’s biggest stories as the Dark Knight once again faces off against Hush, the villain who was once Bruce Wayne’s best friend, Tommy Elliott.

FIRST LOOK: Justice League vs Godzilla vs Kong sequel coming PLUS McFarlane line of figures!

The new story will kick off in March 2025 in Batman #158 and will be a six-issue run that takes place 20 years after the original story and will then lead into another six-issue story that will “resolve the Hush saga once and for all” at a later stage.

We have a glimpse of the new book above and below but if you want more – and you do – then pick up Justice League Unlimited #1, out Nov 27th as it will have a four-page preview of Hush II.

Can this book have the impact the first one did? Only time will tell but we will be seated…

Thoughts?

He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
