Spanning stories from the 1970s through the 2000s, it includes his debut in Detective Comics #400 and other pivotal encounters with Batman. Part of DC's 'Batman Arkham' series, it offers a focused look at one of Gotham's most tragic scientific creations.
In "Challenge of the Man-Bat," Batman's rogues gallery takes a terrifying turn when Baron Tyme manipulates Francine into committing murder, forcing the Man-Bat to confront his own fractured past. Written by Gerry Conway and illustrated with eerie precision by Steve Ditko, with inks by Al Milgrom and letters by Ben Oda, this 2017 issue plunges readers into a psychological showdown at Tyme’s hidden lair—where the line between predator and prey blurs. Jason Fabok’s haunting cover captures the moment of reckoning, perfectly framing the chaos to come.
In "Beware the Eyes of Baron Tyme," Man-Bat races to stop Baron Tyme from turning Francine into a weapon, leading to a brutal showdown in the villain’s hidden lair. The story unfolds with tense suspense as Man-Bat confronts the Baron, whose grip on Francine proves dangerously strong.
