    School is in session, and Maps, Olive, Matthew and Stephen check out Gotham Academy #1!

    NOTE: There is some strange noise on Stephen’s track this week. We have no idea how this happened, and we haven’t had it repeat. We apologize, and we hope it doesn’t happen again.

    SOLICITATION: WELCOME TO GOTHAM ACADEMY! Gotham City’s most prestigious prep school is a very weird place. It’s got a spooky campus, oddball teachers, and rich benefactors always dropping by…like that weirdo Bruce Wayne. But nothing is as strange is the students! Like, what’s up with Olive Silverlock? Is she crazy or what? Where did she go last summer? And what’s the deal with her creepy mom? And how come that Freshman MAPS is always following her around? And is she still going out with Kyle? P.S. Did you hear the rumor about the ghost in the North Hall?! GOTHAM ACADEMY is a new, monthly teen drama set in the shadow of Batman and the craziness of Gotham City, with new characters and old plus a secret tie to Gotham’s past

      I am also a fan of this new series. I loved MAPS and her enthusiasm. The mystery behind Olive, her relationship with Bruce and her past also provides an added story to an already intriguing setting of Gotham Academy. I really want to read the next issue! Let’s hope it continues to be good.
