Batman: Hush 2 Preview Art Revealed by DC Comics

2025 promises to be a monumental year for DC Comics, and arguably the most anticipated project is the highly awaited sequel: Batman: Hush 2. It's a rare event—DC's President, Publisher, and Chief Creative Officer, Jim Lee, helming a monthly Batman comic. Launching in March's Batman #158, this storyline serves as a direct continuation of the acclaimed Hush saga (2002-2004).

DC has unveiled an extended preview of Batman #158, offering early glimpses into Batman #159 and showcasing the numerous variant covers for Hush 2 (or H2sh, if you prefer). Explore the full preview in the gallery below:

Remarkably, Batman: Hush 2 reunites the original creative team behind the original Hush storyline. Writer Jeph Loeb and artist Jim Lee return, joined once again by inker Scott Williams, colorist Alex Sinclair, and letterer Richard Starkings.

Building upon the recent epilogue in Batman: Hush 20th Anniversary Edition, Hush 2 reveals that Batman's childhood friend, Tommy Elliot, survived their final confrontation. This discovery sets the stage for a new mystery as Hush manipulates Batman's allies and enemies.

Hush 2 will unfold across Batman #158-163, with #158 hitting shelves March 26th. Following this arc, DC will relaunch the series with a new #1 issue and a fresh costume, marking the beginning of a new era for the Dark Knight under writer Matt Fraction and artist Jorge Jimenez.
