About this Collection

This collection brings together the 2011 Azrael: Angel in the Dark miniseries from DC Comics, following the new Azrael, Michael Lane, as he struggles with the violent legacy of the Order of St. Dumas and his role as a vigilante in Gotham City. Written by David Hine and illustrated by Jeremy Haun, the story delves into themes of redemption and faith against a backdrop of supernatural intrigue.

In "Angel in the Dark," Michael Lane grapples with the weight of the Suit of Sorrows as he wages a relentless war against crime. The story unfolds with a haunting intensity, culminating in a chilling flashforward that reveals Michael's fate six months ahead—lifeless on a cross. Written by Fabian Nicieza and brought to life by Ramón Bachs, with inks by John Stanisci, colors by JD Smith, and letters by Sal Cipriano, the issue's stark visuals and emotional gravity are matched by Francesco Mattina’s striking cover.
