The debut issue, Batman: Hush Part 1, was released on 19 August 2015 at the special price of £2.99. The price gradually rose to £9.99 per issue, then £10.99 from issue 37 [1] and £11.99 from issue 107. The initial series of 60 issues was extended to 100 issues (see list below), and then to 140 issue (announced Jan 2020).

Eaglemoss no longer offer new subscriptions to this collection.[2]

Similar collections had been released in countries like Germany, Brazil, Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary and Spain but with a different order and contents. A small local test run was also run in select parts of the UK, similar to what happens with most partworks. The German language version of the Collection ended with a total of 150 issues: most are the same as the UK series, but were released in a different order.

Eaglemoss launched a companion partwork DC Comics The Legend Of Batman in December 2017.
