February 26, 2016: New "Batman v Superman" Prequel Digital Comic

Upstairs/Downstairs Yahoo Movies give us our first look at "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice - Upstairs/Downstairs", an upcoming digital comic book from DC Comics and Doritos which acts as a prequel to the film, explaining why Batman is so concerned about the threat posed by Superman.

    Set in the wake of the events of Man of Steel, Upstairs/Downstairs unfolds with the citizens of Metropolis about to celebrate what a news anchor calls "the world's greatest hero" with his very own statue (as seen in the trailers).

    It's an honor the Batman, watching the TV feeds from his subterranean Gotham City lair miles away, believes undeserved. And faithful butler Alfred Pennyworth is delighted to do a little needling.

    Upstairs/Downstair examines what it means to be a superhero - whether it, as Bruce Wayne believes, requires being human, fallible, and empathetic, or whether it only requires having virtually unchecked god-like gifts.

Written by Christos Gage, with art by penciller Joe Bennett and inker Sean Parsons, "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice - Upstairs/Downstairs" will be available to download when you retrieve the necessary codes available exclusively in Doritos Family Fun Mix multipacks at Walmart beginning Monday.
