Batman #138 (903)

Part Four of "The Gotham War" arrives in this 2023 installment of DC's flagship Batman series, and the cover by Jorge Jiménez captures the tension beautifully. At the top, Batman and Nightwing are locked in a fierce, close-quarters struggle, their capes tangling as blows land — a striking image of two allies at odds — while below, a cowl-less Bruce Wayne stands before a candlelit figure in a moment charged with quiet gravity. Chip Zdarsky and Jorge Jiménez, with Tomeu Morey's vivid coloring, are clearly pushing the Dark Knight into deeply personal territory under the Dawn of DC banner.
