DC Comics' "Batman" solicits for September 2013

This September is "Villains Month", for DC Comics, at least. What this means is, every title in the New 52 is being taken over by one of the character ( or team )'s villains. Personally, I'm excited for this idea, each issue also gets a 3D cover ( However, the covers below are the 2D versions ).

Here are the Villains Month issues for the main Batman series, Yep, issueS. This series and some others at least have more than one issue in that month.
