Batman gets into esports as DC partners with FaZe Clan for new comic book
Who knew the Caped Crusader's ELO was so high?
Holy colorful computer chairs, Batman! DC Comics is collaborating with FaZe Clan on a limited edition comic book where several content creators will transform into superheroes.
The first issue of this collaboration features Batman, Robin, Nightwing and Batwoman teaming up with FaZe Clan to fight The Joker, Mr. Freeze, and The Riddler. At least, that’s what we can glean from the cover art, anyway.
“DC is excited to partner with FaZe Clan to share this custom Batman story with their amazing gaming fans,” Daniel Cherry III, general manager at DC Comics, said via Esports Insider. “This partnership is a great opportunity to invite even more fans into the iconic DC universe.”
Check out the teaser for this collaboration for yourself below.

“The limited-edition comic will feature popular FaZe Clan members like Banks, Apex, Temperrr, Rain, Adapt, Rug and Blaze in Super Hero form,” DC Comics said on its official blog. “And this is just the beginning. There’s even more FaZe Clan and Batman coming in Batman Month that fans won’t want to miss, including limited-edition Batman and FaZe Clan merchandise like esports jerseys, tees, hoodies and more.”
The comic will be out on Sept. 24 for those that dig these sorts of crossovers.
