Batman #33
In "The Rules of Engagement, Part 1," Batman and Catwoman traverse a relentless desert in search of Holly Robinson, shielded by Talia, while back in Gotham, Bruce’s absence unsettles his protégés—until Alfred delivers a stunning revelation: Bruce is engaged to Selina. Written by Tom King and illustrated with striking precision by Joëlle Jones, this issue blends tense pursuit with intimate personal stakes, all rendered in Jordie Bellaire’s evocative colors and Clayton Cowles’ sharp lettering. The cover, also by Joëlle Jones, captures the duo’s uneasy alliance in silhouette against a vast, sun-scorched horizon.
