Batman Beyond #18

Part five of "The Long Payback" arrives with one of the most urgent cover images in this 2018 run — a young man in street clothes swings a hammer into a glass case, shattering it to reveal a gleaming yellow-and-green Robin suit displayed inside, while a masked figure looms large in the background. Bernard Chang's cover composition does terrific work with the "In Case of Emergency… Break Glass!" tagline, turning a simple act of desperation into something genuinely charged. With Dan Jurgens writing and Phil Hester on interiors, this is a series firing on all cylinders.
