Batman: Last Knight On Earth #2B (DC Comics 2019) 1st app. of Omega
The second chapter of the Snyder and Capullo post-apocalyptic saga delivers 56 full-color pages tracking Batman’s investigation into a ruined world. When legacy antagonists resurface and derail his progress, the Dark Knight travels to the Plains of Solitude, where a previously unrevealed survivor steps into the spotlight.
Built-In Collectibility Milestones
This №2B edition directly correlates to the issue’s central narrative beat and serves as the first official appearance of Omega within the modern DC continuity. The variant exterior features cover artwork by John Romita Jr., providing a distinct alternative to the primary market printing while maintaining identical interior stories and editorial content.

Why This Edition Stands Out
Standard single-issue runs typically hover around 20–32 pages, but this installment extends the runtime to accommodate multi-threaded plotting and extended action sequences. Investors and serial readers alike favor this issue because Omega’s introduction fundamentally shifts the power dynamics following the global collapse, setting up subsequent arcs that span multiple titles. The combination of Romita Jr.’s stylized exterior, the expanded page count, and a confirmed character debut creates a focused target for vault builders.
Originally released by DC Comics in 2019, this variant remains a structural anchor in the Last Knight on Earth crossover event and a necessary acquisition for comprehensive Batman library completions.
