“The Bat and the Beast, Part Five”

In "The Bat and the Beast, Part Five," Batman faces off against a ruthless enemy in Moscow, where a man known only as The Bear must choose between vengeance and justice. Written by Peter Milligan and illustrated by Andy Clarke, with colors by David Baron and letters by Sal Cipriano, this gripping finale sees The Bear reject violence, inspired by Batman’s code, and vow to protect the city in his own way. The cover by Francesco Mattina captures the moment with haunting intensity.
