About this Collection

This compact edition collects the opening story arc of Grant Morrison's acclaimed Batman run, featuring the introduction of Damian Wayne as the son of Bruce Wayne and Talia al Ghul. The narrative pits Batman against the mysterious and deadly organization known as the Black Glove while exploring the strained dynamic between the Dark Knight and his newly revealed heir. Originally published in 2008, this volume includes issues #655-658 and #663-666 of the Batman series, plus material from 52 #30 and Batman #667-669, presented in a smaller, more portable format for readers on the go.

In this pivotal 2008 issue, Batman returns to Gotham with his unexpected son, Jo, introducing him to the legacy of Wayne Manor and the secrets of the Batcave. Tensions rise as the arrival of this new figure stirs unease, especially when Robin enters the picture. Written by Grant Morrison and brought to life by Andy Kubert’s dynamic art, with inks by Jesse Delperdang, colors by Dave Stewart, and lettering by Nick J. Napolitano, the cover by Andy Kubert captures the moment with intensity.
