A Black Batman Is Coming To DC Comics In 2020

Well, it's about time! We've seen black versions of pretty much every character, Spider-Man, Captain America, and Captain Marvel.

And now, we're finally getting the black Batman we've so desperately needed.

We all love Batman.

There are two kinds of people in the world, people who love Batman and liars.

How could you not love him? He's dark and brooding, with probably the best rogues gallery in the business.

And we've seen some interesting takes on the character over the years.

My favorite is the one where Batman becomes a vampire and kills a bunch of people, including eventually the Joker.

Why not share your favorite Batman in the comments below?

Well, hold that thought ladies and gentlemen.

Because you might just have a new favorite Batman come 2020.

Recently, it was announced by Bleeding Cool's Rich Johnston that there would be a brand new Batman and that he would be black.

Just so you know, this isn't Bruce Wayne.

Nor is it a character we've ever seen in the Bat-verse before (sorry, Duke Thomas fans).

No, it's a completely original character who's taking up the Batman mantle, a la Nightwing or Azrael.
