You can't keep a good XOMBI down! The immortal David Kim – kept "alive" by nanotech enhancements – returns to the DC Universe in a new ongoing series! Creator John Rozum and hot BATMAN AND ROBIN artist Frazer Irving team up to deliver the finest in contemporary urban horror – with a Super Hero twist!

What would a Xombi do just to feel change again? And where will he ever be able to find a kindred soul?
