Absolute Batman 17 Bjorn Barends Variant Cover Featuring Absolute Poison Ivy February 11 2026 ECC Exclusive DC Comics Poster Art Print Home Decor Poster Canvas

Absolute Batman #17, scheduled for release on February 11, 2026, represents a significant entry in DC Comics’ reimagined Absolute Universe line, featuring an exclusive variant cover by acclaimed artist Bjorn Barends that showcases Absolute Poison Ivy, marking a pivotal moment in the convergence of two of Gotham’s most complex characters within this bold new continuity. The Absolute Universe, launched by DC Comics in late 2024, presents radical reinventions of iconic heroes and villains, stripping away traditional origin elements to explore what these characters become when their foundational circumstances are dramatically altered, and Absolute Batman has emerged as one of the most critically acclaimed titles in this experimental line, offering a grittier, more grounded interpretation of Bruce Wayne’s vigilante crusade. Bjorn Barends, a variant cover artist known for his distinctive illustrative style and ability to capture both the heroic grandeur and psychological complexity of superheroic characters, brings his unique artistic vision to this ECC Exclusive release, creating a collectible piece that appeals to both comic book enthusiasts and art print collectors seeking premium home decor. The inclusion of Absolute Poison Ivy in this issue signals a crucial narrative development, as Pamela Isley’s reimagined counterpart in the Absolute Universe carries her own transformative backstory that intertwines with Batman’s mission in unexpected ways, exploring themes of environmentalism, power, and morality through a fresh lens that challenges readers’ preconceptions about one of DC’s most iconic eco-terrorists turned antihero. ECC Ediciones, a prominent European comics distributor particularly influential in Spanish and Portuguese-speaking markets, has secured this exclusive variant, making it a particularly sought-after collectible for international fans who value limited regional releases that often command premium prices in secondary markets. This poster art print transforms the comic book variant cover into versatile home decor, allowing fans to display museum-quality artwork on canvas that celebrates both the artistic merit of Barends’ illustration and the cultural significance of DC Comics’ ambitious Absolute initiative, bridging the gap between sequential art appreciation and contemporary interior design while serving as a conversation piece that reflects the owner’s engagement with modern superhero mythology and the evolving landscape of comic book storytelling in the mid-2020s.
