Jim Lee and Jeph Loeb on Batman H2SH , with jacked Riddler , Damian Wayne , Barbara Gordon and H3SH to come …
Article Summary
Talking on the DC Comics Discord , Jim LeeandJeph Loebaddressed a act of things , but it was mostly aboutBatman : Hush 2,their sequel to their definitive Batman story from over two decades ago . As well as the way of life it has been abbreviated asH2SH . That add up from Jeph Loeb it seems , and Jim Lee primitively object to it , wonder why it would n’t beHU2H. But Jim Lee thennappreciated how letterer and designerRichard Starkingsmade the 2 work as a manifestation of the S , and says that this way it will allow forH3SHand to refer to the original asH1SH , which is very handy in document and book to ferment out who is who , what is what and where the hell ; they are in time and space .
We know that we are convey six issues ofH2SHin the Batman ongoing serial publication , with another six to follow as a separate mini - serial in 2026 or 2027 . So I approximate that Jim Lee ’s plan is that the mini - series is going to be calledBatman : Hush 3orH3SH .
Yeah , it ’s work to beH3SHisn’t it ? Jeph Loeb also talked about how Batgirl run a huge role , how they were bully to employ the Nightwing costume from the current rivulet and how they require to be a part of current Bat continuity . Including dropping things to tie with Matt Fraction and Jorge Jimenez ' newBatman#1 which will adopt the conclusion ofH2SH .
Also Jim Lee wants to " thread the needle " , soH2SHbe something anyone just can pick up but also " ordinate more or less with presently persistence " . So , they are;t using the Bat Cave , as that is currently own by Vandal Savage as well as Wayne Manor . So he ’s using " the cave " in captions , not " the Batcave " , on the basis that Batman has more that one and this is a back - up cave underneath Gotham itself . But with no room for the Batmobile Ferris Wheel .
Jeph Loeb also share the report from the originalH1SH , when Jim Lee first depict Batman as he was coming up from the gut of a ship , he was very bulky indeed , but that changed through the story to a lean Batman . And as a result , Jim Lee stated that he was blend to redraw the first issue . Jeph Loeb was against this and used the explanation that Batman had been worn down through the events ofH1SH , to explain his lean frame , but Jim was n’t buying it . So it take inkerScott Williamsto say that if he had to ink the issue again he ’d quit . So that was that .
We can anticipate Damian Wayne in publication 3 . " Whether he gets out is something else . We are going to do something about this Robin problem " says Jeph Loeb . And what is Riddler ’s workout routine ? He is jacked ! Jim Lee promised , " We ’re sound to explain this . " He is wearing a heavy cushiony cap and pants , and Jim Lee says , " He may have something under that , " yet to be revealed .
