The publishers behind iconic characters such as Superman and Batman announced they will release a 6 issue comic series with the game’s characters. Now, along with the comic book, fans have some theories that the next season will be all about DC.

“There’s someone else trapped, someone who is trying to get free from the world of Fortnite…someone deadly. Will Batman recognise this familiar hunter-for-hire, and even more importantly, will he trust him?”

While there are a lot of iconic villains in Caped Crusader’s rogue gallery, only two of them are “Hunter-for-hire”. So, it’s probably going to be Floyd “Deadshot” Lawton or Slade “Deathstroke” Wilson who will appear in this comic alongside Bruce Wayne.

Season 6 might be all about DC Comics

The comic book sounds entertaining according to the descriptions, and it will have characters from both the worlds. But that might not be the end of the collaboration. This comic might lead up to a storyline in the game for Season 6, which starts in a week. When Marvel released their collaborative comics with Fortnite, the game had an entire season about their lore with Season 4. This might be repeated with DC and its characters when Season 6 arrives.
