The Ultimates is a brand new on going comic dubbing project, combing heroes from both Marvel's Ultimate run and DC's Post Crisis run, starting with Batman: Year One!
This dark and visceral rendition of the Dark Knight's origin story, Written by Frank Miller and penciled by David Mazzucchelli paints Bruce Wayne as a tortured and driven individual in a one man war against the criminals of the Gotham District of New York City. We also see a young Lieutenant James Gordon, just joining the corrupt NYPD that stationed at the Gotham Precinct. As both encounter the new dangers of Gotham they both come to realize that they must adapt to this new gothic jungle.
This is an on going production, so please be willing to work under a short deadline. A discord is required, as that is where we organize everything together.
Extras are the backbone of this entire series, not just batman year one. You'll be tasked with multiple roles, but will be among the first to be cast as actors are informed of roles before the casting call is made. So while in his issue you might not be a main character, don't worry! We have years of content to work through.
Thank you so much for your hard work!!

The Titular Role of Batman. Bruce Wayne is one of comic's longest lasting characters, and in this gritty reimagining of his origin, we see a desperate tortured man return home after several years abroad, returning to his family home in Gotham District, New York.
From up here, it's clean shafts of concrete and snowy rooftops. The work of Men who have died generations ago. From here, She looks like an Angel.
Wayne Manor. Built as a Fortress, Generations past. To protect a fading line of royalty from a bygone age of Oppressors. Mother. Father. It's good to be Home.
The mask of Zorro... Since the Walk. That Night. And the man with Painted Hollow Eyes and a voice, like Glass being Crushed.
Lieutenant James Gordon, having recently transitioned from Midtown PD to the Gotham District, is thrust into the corrupt police system and begins his work in reforming the Gotham Police, even with a wife and kid on the way.
January 4th, Gotham. New York's Dirty Secret. Is this my sentence? Life, past the gates of Hell.
I've made my mistakes sir, but I've always been an honest man. I'm just looking for a chance to prove myself, Sir.
Dodging the Porsche gives me enough adrenaline to make it Upstate. The bruises are starting to form, and I think one of my ribs is broken. I see Wilson step out, coherent and sound. Of course he's the first out, he doesn't want to keep his wife waiting and he's still gotta say hi to his mistress. Twenty minutes later, Stansen stumbles out, hunched over like he lost his life savings. Then comes Renny, I let em both go home. Finally, Flass. He staggers to his station wagon and gets in, only takes him two tries. I hear the engine start, and watch him flatten the mailbox before he remembers to flick on the lights.
The ever dependable aide and confidant of the Batman.
Master Wayne, A pleasure to see you again. I must say, you've returned at a strange time in the city.
Hello, my name is Alfred Pennyworth, I am the Wayne Family's Butler. I answer the door, I clean up the Estate, and I take out the trash. My Master may not kill but I assure you, I am under no such obligation.
Master Wayne, I am your Butler. I am your Aide, and I am your medic. I am not, however, your Slave. Unhand me.
A corrupt cop in the Gotham Police Department.
