Batman finds himself at a crossroads with one of his allies. Is it possible they’re the mastermind behind the flames devouring Gotham City?

What a great comic to kick off Halloween month!

I loved watching Twilight Zone reruns growing up and the story and art here by @danpgwatters.bsky.social and @morganbeem.bsky.social really captured the tone of the series well.

Good stuff!

#TheTwilightZone #1 by @danpgwatters.bsky.social and @morganbeem.bsky.social. I love The Twilight Zone TV show and this comic continues the tradition. Each issue is a self contained story: A billionaire wants immortality. Be careful for what you wish for because you may get it. Recommend.

📖 THE TWILIGHT ZONE (2025) #1, Dan Watters (Martin Simmonds Variant)

WHAT AN EXCELLENT ADAPTATION OF THE SHOW! This reboot of the classic series is infinitely captivating and captures that spirit perfectly while using concepts that work so well for the medium of comic books. A must read. 10/10!

"Wetherspoons exorcism" is the most John Constantine headline I've seen in a hot minute.

Exorcism held before Wetherspoon opens at site of 'biggest fire since 1666'

The new pub is on the site of a major tragedy, and the former home of the London Dungeon

If you like Batman Dark Patterns, you should pick up the 1st issue of IDW's Twilight Zone by the same writer (Dan Watters).

Really does read like a lost episode of the classic show.

‘The Twilight Zone’ #1 is a sharp, unsettling debut

The franchise’s chilling moral tales are just as vital today as they were in 1959.
