This week on The Legends of the DCU Podcast! Drew Leiter and Cletus Jacobs go to Hell in the Sandman. Batman’s investigation into the grotesque “Abomination” project erupts in Issue #9 as he uncovers a trail of mutilated victims and traces it back to Ark M, where he’s forced into a brutal confrontation with the first experimental monster. Issues #10–12 push Bruce deeper into the conspiracy as he discovers Bane’s twisted rebirth, the weaponization of Waylon Jones, and the revelation that Gotham’s elite have been funding a program to manufacture the perfect predator—using Batman’s own physiology as the blueprint. The arc peaks in Issues #13–14 when the final Abomination is unleashed, driving Batman into a desperate showdown that exposes the architects behind the project and leaves him questioning how far Gotham’s power brokers will go to control its future. All this plus, DC News, Shout Outs, and much, much more!
