Batman and Robin #35

Part Three of the "Robin Rises" saga, this 2014 New 52 entry delivers a striking cover by Patrick Gleason and Mick Gray: a heavily armored Batman looms over a field of scattered skulls, claws outstretched, with a blazing inferno erupting across an alien-looking landscape behind him — every detail radiating grim purpose. The bat-symbol on his chest glows red against the black suit, and the cracked, hellish terrain beneath him makes clear this is no ordinary corner of the DC universe. Peter J. Tomasi's story, rendered in vivid color by John Kalisz, promises the kind of high-stakes, emotionally charged adventure that has made this run a standout on shelves.
