Written by Duane Swierczynski. Art by David Lapham.
In the tradition of Quirk's The Crimes of Dr. Watson, this interactive mystery pits a legendary detective - Batman - against a shocking and seemingly inexplicable crime.
When a construction crew at Wayne Manor discovers a long-buried corpse, all the evidence points to Bruce Wayne's late father, Thomas, as the murderer. Torn between the need to protect his father's honor and his thirst for dispensing justice, Batman sets out to solve this coldest of cases, using police reports, his father's private journal, maps of Wayne Manor, news clippings, forensic samples, and photographs from family albums (all included throughout the book as removable facsimiles).
Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 10 1/2-in., 70 pages, Text (with full color Chapter Illustrations).

1st printing.
Written by Marc Tyler Nobleman. Art and cover by Ty Templeton.
Every Batman story is marked with the words "Batman created by Bob Kane." But that isn't the whole truth.
A struggling writer named Bill Finger was involved from the beginning. Bill helped invent Batman, from concept to costume to character. He dreamed up Batman's haunting origins and his colorful nemeses. Despite his brilliance, Bill worked in obscurity. It was only after his death that fans went to bat for Bill, calling for acknowledgment that he was the co-creator of Batman.
Based on original research, Bill the Boy Wonder is the first-ever book about the unsung man behind the Dark Knight.
Hardcover, 8-in. x 11-in., 48 pages, Text (with full color illustrations and photos).
NOTE: "This is an absolute must read for any comic book fan, writer, and artist. Afterwards, seek out the documentary Batman and Bill. Here, the heartbreaking story of Bill Finger finally gets a much deserved happy ending." - Odinson, mycomicshop.com Archivist

1st printing. By Glen Weldon. Since his creation, Batman has been many things: a two-fisted detective; a planet-hopping gadabout; a campy Pop-art sensation; a pointy-eared master spy; and a grim and gritty ninja of the urban night. How we perceive Batman's character, whether he's delivering dire threats in a raspy Christian Bale growl or trading blithely homoerotic double-entendres with partner Robin on the comics page, speaks to who we are and how we wish to be seen by the world. It's this endlessly mutable quality that has made him so enduring. And it's Batman's fundamental nerdiness - his gadgets, his obsession, his oath, even his lack of superpowers - that uniquely resonates with his fans who feel a fiercely protective love for the character. Softcover, 8-in. x 11-in., 336 pages, PC. Cover price $17.00.
