All Star Batman #12

Part three of "The First Ally" arrives with a cover that pulls you straight into the chaos — Batman plunges toward the viewer through a swirling haze of green and gold, jaw set, cape billowing, as dollar bills, coins, and scattered debris spiral around him in freefall. Rafael Albuquerque's art gives the Dark Knight a raw, almost painterly intensity that makes the moment feel genuinely urgent. Scott Snyder's ongoing arc continues to push Batman into unfamiliar territory, and this issue's cover promises the ride isn't getting any smoother.
