Bottleneck Gallery announced print releases from Nick Dragotta, Daniel Warren Johnson, Derrick Chew and Ian Permana, including a free print from Permana. The releases include screen prints, foil editions, acrylic panels, giclées and an offset print featuring characters from the Absolute Batman universe and The Dark Knight. The Batman Day releases were scheduled to go on sale on September 19, 2026, at 12 p.m. ET.
Dragotta’s comic cover for ‘Absolute Batman #9’ shows Absolute Bane as an Akira-esque abomination that grows larger and more grotesque as Batman tries to fight him. The screen print also features a bright glow layer showing Bane’s Venom. The listing identifies ‘Absolute Batman #9 - GID Edition’ by Nick Dragotta as a screen print with a glow-in-the-dark ink layer.
Johnson’s contribution is based on his variant cover for ‘Absolute Batman #2’, featuring Batman after a rumble with Absolute Black Mask’s Party Animals. Chew’s ‘Absolute Batman #14’ is presented as a fine art giclée.
