This trade paperback gathers the core issues from the storyline, including chapters from Batman, Detective Comics, and related titles, showcasing the Dark Knight's struggle to protect his city from an invisible enemy.
In "The Apocalypse Plague Contagion: Part One," a wave of chaos sweeps Gotham as familiar faces from the city’s rogues' gallery—Clayface, Ventriloquist, Scarface, Rhino, Amygdala, Tally-Man, Corrosive Man, Mahakala, Robin, The Hood, Anarky, and others—appear in haunting, fleeting nightmare cameos. Written by Alan Grant and illustrated by Bret Blevins, Norm Breyfogle, Vince Giarrano, Barry Kitson, and Dave Taylor, with inks by Ray McCarthy and Rob Leigh, colors by Pamela Rambo and Android Images, and letters by Bill Oakley, the issue unfolds with a grim, atmospheric tension. Kelley Jones and John Beatty deliver a striking cover that captures the dread of the story’s opening chapter.
