Batman and Robin #0

Part of DC's New 52 #0 initiative in 2012, this issue sports a dynamic cover by Patrick Gleason and Mick Gray that bursts with kinetic energy — Batman and Robin tear through what appears to be a comic-panel backdrop, fists clenched and mid-leap, as if launching directly at the reader. The bold color contrast of Robin's yellow-and-black costume against Batman's dark silhouette makes for a visually striking partnership. With Peter J. Tomasi writing and Gleason penciling the interior story "Someday Never Comes," this zero issue is a compelling snapshot of the Dark Knight and his son in the New 52 era.
