GARTH ENNIS AND JOHN MCCREA RETURN TO HITMAN AFTER 25 YEARS!

It’s a Christmas miracle! Garth Ennis and John McCrea return to their quintessential DCU creation, Tommy Monaghan, and the world of Hitman after 25 years for two twisted tales of yuletide cheer, violence, irreverence, and…ninjas?!

In the first story, we return to the DC Universe of the 1990s as Tommy is tasked with finding a star to place atop a tree but is targeted by all manner of killers, each of whom has a grudge and is looking to cash in on his head. And in the backup, Baytor mans the bar of a very familiar cafe and teams up with one of the World’s Finest heroes to save the day. Or does he?

WHEN DISASTER STRIKES, NOT ALL OF GOTHAM’S HEROES WEAR CAPES!

Welcome to General, Gotham City’s tier one trauma center. Power is out, fires are burning, transpo is shot, and the calls just keep coming. There are more patients than beds, half presenting with respiratory complications, the other half suffering hallucinogenic psychotic episodes. In every other emergency department in the DCU, this would be a catastrophe. For Dr. Ava Dastur and the men and women working at General, it’s a Tuesday.

DC Comics is pleased to introduce you to the staff of Gotham General. No capes, no costumes, and don’t call them heroes—this is their job.

EISNER AWARD-WINNING WRITER DARCY VAN POELGEEST AND LEGENDARY ARTIST NIKO HENRICHON USHER THE DOOM PATROL TO THE NEXT LEVEL!

The Doom Patrol is broke. Adopting a heroes-for-hire business model to stave off financial and emotional ruin, the team finds itself responding to a simple case—a missing cat.

And elsewhere, beyond the view of Robotman, Elasti-Girl, and Negative Man—and perhaps even beyond the veil of our reality—a ghost of the team’s past is preparing to cross into their world.

The visionary team of Eisner Award-winning writer Darcy Van Poelgeest (Little Bird) and legendary artist Niko Henrichon (Spectators, Pride of Baghdad) ushers the Doom Patrol into a new age for DC Next Level.
