Batman Confidential #49

Batman surges toward the viewer with cape dramatically spread against a warm, amber-lit Gotham skyline — a blimp hovering in the distance and the city's art-deco towers framing the scene — in this 2010 installment of Batman Confidential. Andy Kubert's cover pencils and inks capture the Dark Knight mid-glide with real kinetic energy, conveying both power and purpose. With James Patrick writing and Steve Scott on interior art, "Work That's Never Done" promises a compelling chapter in the series.
