‘Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries’: The Dark Knight teams up with Scooby and the gang
DC’s all-ages comic book library expands with Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries, a new series of original team-up stories launching with digital chapters on Saturday, March 27. Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries teams the Dark Knight with Scooby-Doo and the sleuths of Mystery, Inc. (Shaggy, Velma, Daphne and Fred) for a series of 24 digital chapters – to be collected in 12 print issues available at your favorite comic bookstore.
In the kick-off story by Ivan Cohen and Dario Brizuela, an adventure when Batman discovers his original purple gloves have gone missing, Velma, Shaggy, and Scooby-Doo travel back in time to Batman’s Year One era to solve the case!
Will this time-traveling heist have a happy ending?
Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #1, “Glove Story,” written by Ivan Cohen with art and cover by Dario Brizuela, begins with the first of two DC Digital First chapters on March 27 followed by a print issue collecting the same story on April 13.
Yes, Scooby and the gang have teamed up with Bats a few times over the years, with perhaps the most memorable being held in the Scooby-Doo & Batman: The Brave and the Bold animated feature crossover from 2018 that gave us one more adventure in the world of Batman: The Brave and the Bold animated universe, according to Comics Beat.
And to continue the Scooby-Doo team-up tradition established in over a hundred chapters of Scooby-Doo Team-Up, in the second big Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries, story writer Sholly Fisch and artist Randy Elliott have Scooby-Doo and Batman team up to solve the mystery of a ghost who’s haunting the Batcave!
Even if the ghost turns out to be a fake, that still doesn’t solve the real mystery: How did someone get into the Batcave to stage the phony phantom – and does that mean Batman’s enemies have cracked the secret of his true identity?! Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #2, “Going Bats,” written by Sholly Fisch with art and cover by Randy Elliott, arrives in print on May 11 after digital chapters beginning on April 24.
