ARKHAM ASYLUM BOX SET
Beware the denizens of Arkham Asylum!
The Caped Crusader and three of his deadliest enemies are collected here in one insane box set.
The four figures, all featuring brand-new colors, are packaged together with a 64-page book featuring stories that offer rare glimpses into the lives of some of the most notorious residents of Gotham City’s home for the criminally insane. Stories included are “Escape” from SHOWCASE ’95 #11, “Workin’ My Way Back to You” from THE BATMAN CHRONICLES #3, “Penguin Dreams” from BATMAN #585 and “Fool’s Errand” from ROBIN #85.
Advance-solicited; on sale September 23, 2009 • Box Set * PII'd say this would be a good companion piece to go along with the Legends of The Dark Knight box set.

So is Penguin having a heart attack? Is he constipated?
Does Killer Croc work at Hooters?
I might just have to pass on these.

hmmmmmmmmmmm..... still think about it, the thing is i already bought the penguin and killer crock, the only difference here is the colors and the new head sculpt on the Joker. thats the problem i have too. i have the figs in this set already in their original, better colors. i might just have to get Joker from this set loose on ebay once this comes out. especially since my extra money that month will be going to the Blackest Night series 1 figs.

Looks like the Batman and Joker figures are just the San Diego ComicCon exclusives with different heads. The new Joker head is cool, but the Batman one isn't an improvement. Is this set supposed to be a tie-in with the new Arkham Asylum game?

Is this set supposed to be a tie-in with the new Arkham Asylum game? Doubt it. The solicit says this comes out in September when the game is out in May.

Its not new in that we have seen it in the solicits, but it is new in that its not yet available. Semantics.

^ and then he said the new Joker head is cool, but the Batman one isnt an improvement. and when this set comes out, History of the DC Universe will have already been out for a few months.

I just received my ebay purchase of the Batman only from this set. The head is definitely a different sculpt than the HODCU Batman's head. I may like this one better too. The AA Batman may turn out to be my favorite DC Direct figure. That is, after I paint the black parts blue!
