About this Collection

This collection reprints the opening arc of Grant Morrison's acclaimed Batman run, introducing Damian Wayne as the son of Bruce Wayne and Talia al Ghul. The story sees Batman confronting the consequences of a past encounter while dealing with a new, violent heir to the mantle of the Bat. It collects issues #655-658, #663-666, and #667-669 of the main Batman series, along with material from 52 #30 and Batman Annual #1 (2007).

In "Batman & Son, Part 1: Building a Better Batmobile," Grant Morrison and Andy Kubert kick off a pivotal chapter as Batman brings his new son home to Gotham, unveiling the legacy of Wayne Manor and the secrets of the Batcave. The moment the boy steps into the world of the Dark Knight, tension flares—especially when he crosses paths with Robin.
