1st printing. Collects Batman's Grave (2019 DC) #1-12.

Written by Warren Ellis. Art by Bryan Hitch and Kevin Nowlan. Cover by Bryan Hitch.

The Worlds Greatest Detective must try to inhabit the mind of a murder victim to solve a case — without filling the empty grave next to those of his parents.

Can Batman imagine the life of a corpse with a half-eaten face, without dying himself? A man was murdered, and the Batman knows how it happened. All he has to do now is survive his own deduction.

Warren Ellis and Bryan Hitch, the creative partnership behind The Authority, reunite in this tale about life, death, and the questions most are too afraid to ask.

Written by Paul Dini. Art and cover by Eduardo Risso.

The Caped Crusader has been an icon of justice and authority for generations. But in this surprising original graphic novel, now in trade paperback for the first time, we see Batman in a new light-as the savior who helps a discouraged man recover from a brutal attack that left him unable to face the world.

In the 1990s, Eisner Award-winning writer Paul Dini had a flourishing career writing the hugely popular Batman: The Animated Series and Tiny Toon Adventures. Walking home one evening, he was jumped and viciously beaten to within an inch of his life. His recovery process was arduous, hampered by the imagined antics of the villains he was writing for television, including The Joker, Harley Quinn and the Penguin. But Dini also always imagined the Batman at his side during his darkest moments.

DARK NIGHT: A TRUE BATMAN STORY is the harrowing and eloquent autobiographical tale of Dini's courageous struggle to overcome a desperate situation.

It is a Batman story like none other and one that will truly resonate with fans, with art by Eduardo Risso (100 BULLETS).

Reprinting Batman Huntress Cry for Blood (2000) #1. Written by Greg Rucka. Art and Cover by Rick Burchett. Vengeance is hers. In "No Man's Land," the dark heroine known as the Huntress played a pivotal role in keeping Gotham City's resurrection from unraveling at the last minute. But can she keep her own life from unraveling when everyone -- even Batman -- believes her to be the prime suspect in a brutal gangland murder? The answers unfold in the acclaimed miniseries that finds the Huntress reentering the world of the Mafioso to find clues to prove her innocence, all the while struggling to stay one step ahead of the Dark Knight, who is intent on bringing her to justice. CRY FOR BLOOD explores the Huntress' origin in gripping detail, along the way revealing the shocking and complex history of Gotham City's mobster underworld. What role did the family of Helena Bertinelli -- the Huntress -- play in more than a hundred years of Gotham's criminal history? And can even the Question -- himself a vigilante with a troubled past -- help Helena find redemption? CRY FOR BLOOD sets the stage for a new direction in the Huntress' life, dramatically altering her relationship to Batman and Gotham's other heroes by the miniseries' end. 32 pages, full color.

Krazy Little Comics (1967 Topps): Badman is one of sixteen parody mini-comics originally produced as test market items in 1967, by the Topps Chewing Gum Company. They did not see full national distribution. All were written by Roy Thomas and feature Wally Wood cover and interior art. These minis spoof not only Marvel and DC super-heroes, but other comic characters as well, like the Phantom, Prince Valiant, and Tarzan. These possibly predate, or are at least contemporaneous with, Not Brand Ecch! #1 (08/1967), and are among the rarest of the Merry Marvel Marching Society era items.

Volume 1 - 1st printing.

Story and art by Shiori Teshirogi.

From mangaka Shiori Teshirogi (Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas) comes a new series starring Batman and the Justice League. Currently being serialized in the monthly Japanese anthology Red, the story focuses on a young boy who comes to Gotham City from Japan. He's trying to solve the mystery of what happened to his scientist parents after their disappearance following a factory explosion a year earlier. As it turns out, the factory was owned by Lex Luthor, who has now teamed with The Joker. Together, they plan on using the research of the boy's parents to tap into a mystical, all-powerful, worldwide energy source. But for what purpose?

It's a bigger challenge than Batman can handle on his own, so he's going to need some help from the League.

Softcover, 7 1/2-in. x 10-in., 200 pages, B&W.
