IDW Publishing and DC Entertainment have announced that Sam Kieth (The Sandman, Wolverine) is returing to The Maxx for the first time in over a decade as he teams his greatest creation with the Dark Knight for a mind-blowing five-issue miniseries event Batman / The Maxx: Arkham Dreams.
“Doing a Batman and Maxx crossover is like a family reunion with my favorite brother and our really cool cousin,” says Sam Kieth. “You never want it to end… or at least I hope you won’t!”
“It’s always a pleasure to work with Sam Kieth,” adds editor Scott Dunbier. “He puts his heart and soul into his art, and gives you something truly unique in the process. We can’t wait for people to see this!”
When a devious new doctor at Arkham Asylum conducts unconventional forays into the human psyche, he kicks off a disastrous chain reaction by experimenting on Arkham’s newest patient: The Maxx! The city of Gotham soon begins to merge with the Outback, The Maxx’s psychedelic mental landscape. It’s up to Batman to save Gotham and all of reality… but only by joining The Maxx on a trip into the darkest depths imaginable: the twisted minds of Batman’s greatest enemies!
Batman / The Maxx: Arkham Dreams is set to launch this September.
