Batman '89: Echoes #1
In *Batman '89: Echoes #1*, two years after Batman vanished from Gotham, a wave of copycat killings has the city on edge. Captain Barbara Gordon turns to Alfred for answers about Bruce Wayne’s whereabouts, while Dr. Quinzel delves into the mind of the Joker’s former muse—just as police close in on the elusive Firefly. Written by Sam Hamm and brought to life with bold, expressive art by Joe Quinones, this first chapter of *Echoes* blends noir tension with the haunting echoes of Gotham’s past, all rendered in lush colors by Leonardo Ito and sharp lettering by Carlos M. Mangual. The cover, also by Joe Quinones, captures the city’s lingering unease in shadow and silhouette.
