About this Collection

This massive hardcover collects Grant Morrison's first run on Batman, beginning with the controversial 'Batman and Son' storyline that introduces his son Damian Wayne. Spanning issues from Batman #655-658, #663-683, and #700-702, along with DC Universe #0 and other tie-ins, the omnibus follows Bruce Wayne's increasingly cosmic and psychological adventures, including the 'Black Glove' and 'R.I.P.' arcs. Morrison's tenure redefined the character by blending Silver Age absurdity with modern grit, setting the stage for Dick Grayson's temporary takeover as Batman.

"Dark Knight Down" kicks off the Batman by Grant Morrison Omnibus with a gripping, globe-spanning chapter where Batman, Nightwing, and Robin are in North Africa, tracing the Dark Knight’s origins while the younger heroes uncover a mysterious thread linking their mission to unfolding crises in Gotham. Written by Geoff Johns, Grant Morrison, Greg Rucka, and Mark Waid, with dynamic art by Keith Giffen and Joe Bennett, and vivid colors by David Baron, this story blends personal history with urgent mystery. The cover by J. H. Williams III captures the mood with striking, atmospheric detail.
