Batman #17
The conclusion of the "Death of the Family" arc arrives in Batman #17, and Greg Capullo's cover makes the stakes unmistakably clear — a grotesque, tuxedo-clad Joker dances in the rain, clutching a limp, bloodied figure in a disturbing waltz that radiates menace and dark theatricality. Writer Scott Snyder and artist Capullo (with inks by Jonathan Glapion) brought one of the New 52's most unsettling Batman stories to its end here in 2013, and this image captures the arc's chilling tone perfectly. If you've been following "Death of the Family," this is the issue the whole saga has been building toward.
