Batman #573

In "Shellgame Part 1: Gambits," Gotham’s fragile rebirth becomes a battlefield as the Joker and Harley Quinn reemerge to undermine the city’s recovery, their chaos now a direct challenge to Gotham’s savior. Meanwhile, Pettit and the Strong Men move in with a chilling plan of their own, setting the stage for a dangerous game of control and consequence. Written by Greg Rucka and brought to life by Sergio Cariello’s sharp art, with Mark Pennington’s inks and Pamela Rambo’s colors, this issue pulses with tension, all framed by Doug Mahnke’s striking cover and Tom Nguyen’s precise inks.
