In "Dark Knight Down," Batman, Nightwing, and Robin are deep in North Africa, where Batman confronts the roots of his training, while Nightwing and Robin uncover ties to unfolding crises in Gotham. As the Question's health declines and Montoya struggles to support him, Batwoman seeks aid from a long-absent ally in her fight against Intergang. Written by Geoff Johns, Grant Morrison, Greg Rucka, and Mark Waid, with art by Keith Giffen and Joe Bennett and colors by David Baron, this pivotal issue delivers a tense, character-driven chapter in the larger saga. The cover by J. G. Jones captures the weight of the moment with stark, evocative detail.
