Preview: Batman/TMNT Adventures #2

Shredder & Joker might make a dangerous alliance if they can actually get along in this preview of Batman/TMNT Adventures #2!

Batman/TMNT Adventures marks the second team up between the Dark Knight and the Heroes in a Half-Shell this year. Though this series isn’t really connected to the previous one. The original series takes place entirely in Batman’s home city of Gotham. Batman/TMNT Adventures takes place mostly in the Turtles’ home of Manhattan. Also while the first crossover series was closer to the comics version of the characters, this one is based on animated versions, specifically Batman: The Animated Series and the current Nickelodeon Ninja Turtles animated series.

The basis is that somehow, Bat-villains are escaping from Arkham Asylum into Manhattan. This of course leads Batman, Batgirl and Robin to come to Manhattan and they meet up with the Turtles. But Bat-villains are also meeting with some of the Turtles’ greatest enemies, and that could lead to some big problems. Assuming the villains don’t kill each other first. See how that’s going in this preview of Batman/TMNT Adventures #2:

Next: Tom King: Bane Is Trying To Be A (Relatively) Good Person

I haven’t caught up on this series yet, but I fully intend to when it’s out as a trade. The first crossover was a lot of fun, and this one looks similarly entertaining. Batman/TMNT Adventures #2 will be available Wednesday, December 14th.
