Overview
- DC Comics has released Absolute Batman #14, closing the ‘Abomination’ arc with a public, high-impact clash that anchors the issue’s climax.
- The narrative centers on Batman refusing a corrupt shortcut and relying on a network of allies, reframing him as a leader rather than a lone avenger.
- Reviewers highlight Nick Dragotta’s visceral art and Frank Martin’s colors for leaning into body horror while keeping the focus on character and stakes.
- The issue was pushed two weeks past its initial date so Snyder and Dragotta could add five pages, a change critics say improves pacing and payoff.
- A final coda tees up new consequences and future conflicts, and Issue #15 is expected on December 10, 2025 with Jock on art, according to FandomWire.
