Batman Beyond #4

The entire Royal Flush Gang — King, Queen, Jack, Ten, and Ace — descends in a burst of shattering glass on this February 2000 installment of Batman Beyond, while Terry McGinnis's Batman braces for the onslaught below, with a second "Ten" figure looming nearby to tease the story's "Two of a Kind" premise. The cover tagline says it all: "The Royal Flush Gang Deals… Two of a Kind?" — promising a card-themed confrontation with a twist. With cover pencils by Bob Smith and inks by Terry Beatty, it's a sharp, animated-style composition that captures the futuristic Gotham energy the series delivers so well.
