That news came during DC Comics' Batman Family panel today. Batman writer Tom King revealed that the wardrobe change happens in Batman #53 next month. There the Caped Crusader will dust off his early 2000's costume, made famous by stories like Hush. As King explained, Batman's need to move on from his failed relationship with Catwoman compels him to make the switch. It appears that the days of the DC Rebirth Batman costume are done.A costume change is hardly the only big development brewing in Gotham City. DC revealed the new creative team for Detective Comics, with writer Peter Tomasi and artist Doug Mahnke taking over beginning with issue #994. Tomasi will be tasked with building towards Detective Comics #1000. If it's anything like Action Comics #1000, expect a massive Batman celebration.Speaking of celebrations, September 15 will mark the fifth Batman Day event, DC will once again be partnering with comic book shops, booksellers and libraries to arrange giveaways and events centered around the Batman line.
