The DC superhero will be featured in a new comic book built around TCM's 'Noir Alley' franchise.

Turner Classic Movies, the cable net devoted to classic movies, is branching into comics by expanding its Noir Alley franchise, which is built around hard-boiled features.

TCM is partnering with DC Entertainment for a free comic book called Batman in Noir Alley, which will feature both the DC superhero and TCM’s Noir Alley host Eddie Muller. The comic follows Batman and Muller on the trail to solve a case after the famed Moroccan Raptor goes missing from the Gotham City Museum. Written by Stuart Moore with cover art by Dan Panosian, the comic is available in select comic book stores nationwide starting today and will also be available in DC’s booth at NY Comic-Con in October.
