The Batman Animated Villain Phantasm is Making The Leap Into DC Comics!

I’m sure you all remember the Batman: The Animated Series movie, Batman: Mask of the Phantasm. Well, you’ll be excited to learn that Phantasm is making the leap to DC Comics! This is the first time the character will be directly integrated into the main DC Comics continuity.

The news was revealed by Tom King, the writer of the DC Comics series Batman/Catwoman and Phantasm is going to be causing some big problems for the the two main characters. He shared a piece of art from Clay Mann and Tomeu Morey that features Phantasm wielding her deadly blade.

It’ll be interesting to see how the character ends up being utilized in the story for the comic series. It will be interesting if the background they go with for Phantasm matches up with what was presented in the 1993 animated film.

If you aren’t familiar with Phantasm for some reason, stop what your doing and go watch Batman: Mask of the Phantasm now! It’s seriously one of the best Batman films that has been made.

Phantasm will make her first appearance in Batman/Catwoman in January 2020. Are you excited to hear that Phantasm is making the jump from animation to the DC Comics universe?
