Are you ready for Absolute Professor Pyg? Well, get ready as announced at DC Comics Absolute Universe panel at San Diego Comic-Con, pig class is in session in the upcoming one-shot Absolute Batman: Beyond Ark M.
Written by Frank Tieri and Scott Snyder, with art by Francesco Francavilla, the one-shot serves as a sequel of Absolute Batman: Ark M, which sort of revealed the origin of the Absolute Joker. Here, readers will meet Professor Pyg, The Joker’s right-hand man, who runs all the Arks — aka horrific prison and experimentation facilities, perfect for a weirdo like Pyg.
Not only will the upcoming special introduce Professor Pyg, but it will also explain the function of all twelve Arks, including Ark M, the one that’s set just outside Gotham City… And naturally, since Ark M has been home to a slew of Batman villains ranging from Poison Ivy and Man-Bat to Clayface and Killer Croc, expect plenty of other villains to show up in the one-shot special, as well as a teased big surprise at the end of the issue.
You can check out Nick Dragotta’s design for Absolute Professor Pyg below, as well as the official cover by Francavilla, via Absolute Batman writer Scott Snyder. And we’ll add more info to this article once it’s official distributed by DC.
