“The Bat-Man of Gotham: Part One”

A battered, out-of-costume Bruce Wayne strides forward against the looming silhouette of the Batman cowl, flanked by the ghostly pink profiles of two skull-like, menacing faces — it's a striking opening image for "The Bat-Man of Gotham: Part One." Jorge Jiménez's cover work has real weight to it, capturing a man who looks like he's walked through hell but isn't stopping. With Chip Zdarsky writing and a bonus Robin: Tim Drake story also inside, this 2023 issue hits the ground with serious momentum.
