Absolute Green Lantern writer Ewing is also working on another DC All-In series alongside artist Steve Lieber.

DC’s Absolute Universe Is Off to a Great Start
Snyder and Nick Dragotta’s Absolute Batman kicked off the Absolute Universe side of things for the new DC All-In initiative and the first issue, which arrived on October 9, was a huge hit. The book’s second printing sold out before its October 30 release, with DC heading back to the press for a third time. The Absolute Batman #1 cover sold for a whopping $70,000, and Dragotta’s original art for the book is the highest-grossing of all time for a modern artist.
Absolute Batman #1’s third printing, which arrives on November 27, will feature the main and variant cover art of Dragotta and series colorist Martin, a “Bats Are Crazy” variant cover based on Dragotta and Martin’s art, and a variant cover featuring original art by Jerome Opeña. DC is hoping its upcoming Absolute Universe releases, including Kelly Thompson’s Absolute Wonder Woman, will sustain the momentum.
Absolute Green Lantern #1 will arrive in comic book shops on March 11, 2025.
