“Batman Year 3, Chapter Three: Turnabout”

In "Batman Year 3, Chapter Three: Turnabout," Batman and Nightwing confront the looming return of Tony Zucco, a figure tied to a past tragedy, just as Alfred presents a surprising proposition that could shift the course of justice. Written by Marv Wolfman and brought to life with dynamic art by Pat Broderick, inks by John Beatty, and colors by Adrienne Roy, this issue deepens the moral complexity of Batman’s mission. The cover, a striking piece by George Pérez, captures the tension of the moment.
