First Look: Covers and details to Batman Annual #1 and Batman Inc. #1!

In anticipation for their second wave of New 52 books coming up this May, DC Comics has posted up new details and interesting material for their upcoming new titles from the Batman universe!

Above is the cover to Batman Annual #1, which will be written by fan-favorite Scott Snyder (of the regular New 52 Batman series), co-written by James Tynion IV, with art duties by Jay Fabok. Expanding on the event known as "Night of the Owls", The New 52 Batman will meet for the very first time his cool and cruel archnemesis... Mr. Freeze! How he plays in matters remains to be seen, but it ties in to the Court of Owls, and his origins will be explained! Check out more info via DC's blog The Source!

Also featured in The Source is the very first look at the cover to May's Batman, Incorporated #1! Grant Morrison returns to pen the book, and is joined once again by artist Chris Burnham, who also did art duties in issues for the first volume on Batman Inc. preceding the New 52!
