Sholly Fisch and Christopher Uminga Team Up for DC’s
“Batman’s Mystery Casebook” Graphic Novel!
Look for clues! Analyze evidence! Solve riddles! Learn Gotham City history!
Have you ever needed help solving a mystery? Batman has!
Batman is a great detective, but he rarely works alone. His sidekicks Robin and Batgirl, his butler Alfred, and the police of Gotham City all play a role in helping him keep his city safe. In DC’s upcoming Batman’s Mystery Casebook graphic novel by Sholly Fisch and Christopher Uminga, you can help keep Gotham City safe, too! Look for clues! Analyze evidence! Solve riddles! Learn Gotham City history!
How good are your detective skills? Did you know that no two fingerprints are the same? Help the Batman as he goes on his adventures and see if you can spot the answers to these mysteries before he logs them into his casebook. Then, like Robin and Batgirl, try one of his crime-fighting techniques to help solve a mystery. You could study shoe prints to determine who tracked mud all through the kitchen, or take fingerprints to find the cookie-eating culprit! (It’s probably your little brother.)
Batman’s Mystery Casebook, a Middle Grade book for readers ages 8-12 by writer Sholly Fisch (The Batman and Scooby-Doo Mysteries) and artist Christopher Uminga, will publish on August 30, 2022.
