Publication history

The one shot is part of a line named Batman: Prelude to the Wedding which were made to build up the wedding of Batman and Catwoman. It was published along with Robin vs. Ra's al Ghul, Nightwing vs. Hush, Batgirl vs. Riddler and Harley Quinn vs. Joker.[4][5]

Seely expressed that he decided to pair up Red Hood and Anarky because he feels that they are similar characters, he stated; "To me, what made that interesting is that Red Hood is the bad seed of the family, to some degree. And I can play that against Anarky, who in some ways, could be a fallen member of the Bat family. The way that James [Tynion] played Anarky in Detective Comics is he shared a lot of the same goals and motivations with the [Gotham Knights] team, but he's also a guy who has a tendency to run afoul of Batman's beliefs."[6] He wanted Fernandez for the art because he believed that Fernandez was capable of a darker style that fit his story.[6]
