In the opening of The Batman Who Laughs #1 by Scott Snyder and Jock, we not only met Batman, The Batman Who Laughs and a fake Joker, but also another Batman. One who carries guns and hangs around with the Batman Who Laughs.

Dubbed The Grim Knight, Bleeding Cool understands that he will be getting a spin-off comic book of his very own.

By Scott Snyder, James Tynion IV and Jock, expect the Grim Knight Special to follow up on The Batman Who Laughs, and to be published from DC Comics in March 2018. And in the upcoming solicitations whenever DC Comics get around to it. At this rate, Marvel is going to beat them out of the door… here's Jock's cover to The Batman Who Laughs: Grim Knight Special #1.

Thanks Tako. Our Batman isn't grim at all, no. He tells jokes.
