Burton's Batman: Revolution Unveiled

Author : Charlotte Oct 06,2025

Tim Burton's Batman universe continues to expand with the upcoming novel, Batman: Resurrection, by John Jackson Miller, published by Penguin Random House. This novel introduces the Burton-verse's version of The Riddler and is available for pre-order on Amazon.

As revealed by ComicBook.com, Batman: Revolution, a sequel to Batman: Resurrection (also penned by Miller), is set between the events of 1989's Batman and 1992's Batman Returns. Drawing inspiration from Burton's abandoned third Batman film, which was to feature Robin Williams as The Riddler, Revolution promises a thrilling continuation of the Burton-verse story.

Here's the official summary for Batman: Revolution:

It’s summer in Gotham, and a city-wide celebration is underway. The Joker's reign of terror is finally over, and the mayor is partnering with Max Shreck for a massive Fourth of July event. But beneath the surface, tensions simmer. Batman faces escalating threats from rival gangs and masked criminals. Meanwhile, on the streets, protests erupt against the city's extravagant displays of wealth.

At the heart of this conflict is Norman Pinkus, a seemingly insignificant copy boy at the Gotham Globe, secretly the mastermind behind the newspaper's popular "Riddle Me This" puzzles. Unbeknownst to everyone, Norman is a genius, anonymously solving crimes for the police—even before Batman is aware of them. Unrecognized and unappreciated, Norman devises a plan to exploit the city's simmering unrest, using dangerous new alliances to draw Batman into a perilous game of riddles. As they clash, Norman, now revealed as The Riddler, and Batman uncover hidden secrets about Gotham's past that will reshape its future.

Batman: Revolution will be released on October 28, 2025. Pre-order your copy on Amazon.
