This is not a drill.
Batman and the Joker are teaming up.
In November, DC will debut Batman/The Joker: The Deadly Duo by writer/artist/industry giant Marc Silvestri, which is exactly what it sounds like - arguably the most iconic superhero-arch supervillaiꦬn adversaries working together in what the publisher calls a "fragile alliance."
In what the publisher calls a "meticulously crafted" take on a "horrifying and s𝓀uspense-filled version of Gotham Cityꦏ," Harley Quinn has been abducted by a strange, mysterious, and brazen villain, and The Joker will go to any lengths to get her back.
Plus, mysterious, "Joker-like" creatures are stal﷽king the streets of Gotham collecting severed heads, and Jim Gordon is missing. When a package containing a bloody piece of his friend and ally is delivered to Gotham City Police Department, Batman concludes he must do anything to save him.
See where this is going?
Yes, when the Clown Prince of Crime proposes 💃a༺ team-up, the Dark Knight feels like he has no other choice but to accept the offer.
