>TWO ICONIC WORLDS. ONE HISTORIC EVENT.
>Two worlds. One legendary hero. Batman of Two Worlds features an all-new Batman story by writer Matt Fraction and artist Javi Fernández, with colors by Tomeu Morey and letters by Clayton Cowles, alongside an all-new Absolute Batman story by writer Scott Snyder and artist Nick Derington, with colors by Frank Martin and letters by Tom Napolitano, celebrating the versatility of the World’s Greatest Detective. From the streets of Gotham City to the bold new landscape of the Absolute Universe, each story offers a unique perspective on Batman’s unwavering pursuit of justice. DC’s Batman of Two Worlds cover is by Jorge Jiménez, Nick Dragotta, and Frank Martin.
>ONE MISSION, TWO BATMEN
>“Without giving too much away,” said Scott Snyder, “both stories are about theft, what theft means in one world versus the other, and what Batman’s form of justice looks like in each. That was the guiding principle that gave us the opportunity to tell two stories that celebrate each interpretation.”

>“At the heart of it, it’s really simple,” said Matt Fraction. “One problem, two solutions. Each version of Batman has his own way of working and his own solution to that problem. The fun was putting them side by side so you can see the similarities, the differences, and the unique flavor and texture of each world.”

Feels a bit random, especially for Rebellion to allocate at least ten pages in a big milestone issue for 2000AD.
Either Konami gave Rebellion a lot of money, or Annapurna offered a wide release for that Rogue Trooper film

That’s fun.
