‘Lanterns’ will follow Hal Jordan and Jon Stewart as they solve mysteries.

While DC Rebirth has reinvigorated the entire publishing line, the Batman family of titles have been solid-to-great since Mark Doyle took over as group editor several years ago, and with talent like Tom King, Rafael Albuquerque and Hope Larson helming the books, it's no surprise they're so successful. Ahead of the full release next week, DC has provided us with an exclusive first look at some of June's Batman family titles, highlighting what's to come in the pages of Batman, All-Star Batman, Batgirl and Super Sons.

We've known for a while that the DC Universe was going to crossover with Looney Tunes. Batman writer Tom King had already let us know he was working on a crossover between the Dark Knight and Elmer Fudd. Now we have new details on all six DCU/Looney Tunes one-shots coming in June.

In April, Batman and Flash will be crossing over for a four-part adventure called "The Button," where the Dark Knight and the Fastest Man Alive dive into the mystery of how the Comedian's bloodstained button from Watchmen wound up embedded in the stone walls of the Batcave.

DC Rebirth has been all about bringing back what fans love about classic characters, and for recent issues of Batman that includes the palpable tension between Batman and Catwoman as they try to resolve their feelings for each other with their very different lives. After a successful mission in South America, Tom King and Mitch Gerads' Batman #14 features Bruce and Selina having one last night together, and DC has provided us with an exclusive preview.
