Two days after the final issue of the rebooted series was released, ComicsBeat has announced that Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries is being rebooted for its third iteration. The series will return from its very short hiatus on January 2, 2024 with its first issue. Instead of the 12 issue run both previous iterations of the comic series have had, this time, the series will be ongoing with no planned end date.
A number of plotlines for the series were announced, including teaming up with Nightwing to investigate a circus haunted by Deadman (issue 1), meeting Solomon Grundy in Slaughter Swamp (issue 2), running into Catwoman (issue 3), as well as a bowling museum haunted by a giant, Gotham City citizens turning into gargoyles. Here's the official solicitation for the first issue: Written by SHOLLY FISCH Art and cover by DARIO BRIZUELA $2.99 US | 32 pages ON SALE 1/2/24 A new ongoing series teams up Gotham’s greatest detectives with Crystal Cove’s teen sleuths!

It's great that they are continuing the series! I've never been a huge Batman fan so I'm not quite as excited as some people are, but I think it's great they keep rebooting the series considering so many people are enjoying the series!

Not really that surprised. But it is good news - and for the franchise generally.

Yeah, I wondered if they'd renew it again too! Happy they did, though, and glad it's ongoing this time. I was also surprised the original reboot was only for 12 issues. I guess we won't have to worry about the issue anymore, but I also think it would have been nice if they wouldn't keep starting over with #1. It makes it quite confusing considering there will now be three Batman and Scooby-Doo Mysteries #1-12.
