Head back to Tim Burton’s Gotham City with my second sequel novel, BATMAN: REVOLUTION! – Faraway Press

Let’s do it again! As announced today by ComicBook.com, on October 28, 2025, Random House Worlds releases my new novel Batman: Revolution, my second direct original prose sequel to Warner Bros. Pictures’ 1989 film, Batman!

We’ve seen Gotham City at Christmas — now get a load of the Fourth of July! While Batman continues his war on the underworld, Gotham City also has an underground that’s just as active — and even more violent, with tensions rising with the temperatures. Challenged by all his new responsibilities, Batman needs all the help he can get. But when a past ally of Batman’s gets a reason to see him as an enemy, the consequences for the city are explosive!

Both my previous novel Batman: Resurrection and Revolution take place between Batman and Batman Returns, and I tried to write them both as if they came out then, too — drawing on characters who appeared in both films. You’ll see old favorites — and some new ones, which I again approached with an eye to Tim Burton‘s tragi-comic aesthetic.

Readers helped make Resurrection a runaway success; they’re amply rewarded here, with a story whose roots we planted in the first book. Batman ’89 comics readers will also find that Revolution coexists neatly with the two DC series, which are set later. All will be revealed in the super-hero novel adventure of the year!

Preorder pages are already up! I have many links below, and here’s the full list at Random House — there will be more. Note that some of the pages are still being updated with the cover — but orders placed should map to the correct book.

More news to come. Get those preorders in now!
