Batman #32

Part of DC Universe Rebirth's acclaimed "War of Jokes and Riddles" arc, this concluding chapter arrives with a cover by Mikel Janín that says everything without saying a word: a battered, kneeling Batman stares down at a scatter of playing cards while the leering Joker and a coolly smirking Riddler loom enormous behind him. The composition perfectly captures the weight of a Dark Knight caught between two warring forces, each villain wearing his satisfaction plainly. Tom King and Janín, with colors by June Chung, bring this Gotham civil war to its close in what looks to be a deeply personal reckoning for Bruce Wayne.
