Gerald Parel returns with a striking and highly anticipated cover for Absolute Batman #18, featuring a stunning interpretation of Poison Ivy. This exclusive foil variant gained significant attention upon release, particularly as the issue marks the first appearance of the Court of Owls — a pivotal moment in the Batman mythos.
The intricate detailing and dynamic composition make this cover especially powerful, with artwork perfectly suited for the dramatic foil treatment under which the published edition was exclusively released. Limited to just 800 printed copies, the variant quickly became a sought-after collector’s piece.
This listing offers the original cover art, meticulously created in pencils on 240g mixed media paper — the one-of-a-kind foundation from which the final printed foil edition was produced.
A rare opportunity to acquire a key piece tied to a landmark Batman issue and one of Gerald Parel’s standout covers.
