Legions Of Gotham is proud to bring you another EXCLUSIVE sneak peek at whats coming down the pipleline for Batman Strikes! The Batman Strikes #26 will feature a STRANGE villain...and our boy Ethan...I cannot WAIT to see Chris Jones pencilling ol' Hugo! That'll be wicked. Now..to the big one...an upcoming, yet unnumbered Batman Strikes...this is going to be another fill-in issue by writer Russell Lissau and artist Sanford Greene! Watch for an interview and more details from Russell and Sanford in soon here on LoG! Also, either late this year or early next a very famous comic writer will be on-board doing a fill-in issue for Strikes! Please join me in welcoming Sanford and Russell to the "The Batman" family!

Okay, #26 is a dead give away, but what's #27 going to be about /\/\att? I've heard some rumors that a little birdie ;)told me, but wasn't sure.

This is amazing! Bringing in other well known comic writers and artists to contribute. Im glad Ethan's back into TB, whether on show or comic, its still great to hear of his return. Strange? Hugo? Oh I get it! This seems great. I hope since, G.U.C.M. they have developed him into a villain, or perhaps, since the comic and cartoon world are different they will originate Strange's villainious turnaround in this issue! Thanks for the exclusive scoop /\/\att!

Thanks for the invite. In addition to Strikes #27, I've got another book debuting at Wizard World Chicago, but it's non-Bats so I'll talk about it elsewhere.

Everyone: As of today, I've seen all of Sanford's pencilled pages for #27, and they're fantastic -- better than I could've dreamed! I hope you're all as pleased when the book hits stores.

If you spot me at Wizard World Chicago, say hello and ask for a peek -- I'll likely have some pages from a few projects with me.

That image is acutally the page one splash from the issue. It's obviously pencil art which someone has tried to doctor up by filling in areas there were indicated to be inked solid black by adding various black and gray tones. I'm not sure how it got out there as a "cover" image, but I'm happy if people like the art. I'm really happy with how that issue came out.

[shadow=green,left,300] I thought I noticed that, it looked more like an opening page and more like your art. Who knows how it got out there, but someone did the inking for it in paint or something. It looks like a killer issue Chris, great job [/shadow]

I'd say you can have a freebie. DC put that page out there in their solicitations. Go ahead and post the full page and another one as well.

Chris [shadow=green,left,300] Awesome, thanks Chris and Matt! I hope we can get awesome preview pages for Riddler too when he gets into a future Batman Strikes issue. But it's great to see Clayface coming up along with The Killer Croc! [/shadow]
