Batman #576

In "In the Dark Places," Batman plunges into a high-stakes rescue mission when a young prince is taken by a shadowy terrorist cell led by the enigmatic Cipher. With time running out and the trail leading through the city’s most dangerous underbelly, Batman must confront not only the threat at hand but also unsettling echoes from his own past. Written by Larry Hama and brought to life by Scott McDaniel’s sharp art, this gripping tale blends suspense and personal tension in a 1999-era Batman story that lingers long after the final page.
