Batman: Creature of the Night #3

In "Book Three: Crusader," Bruce Wayne and the mysterious Bat Creature delve into a web of hidden crimes, their partnership tested as Bruce grapples with the unsettling truth that the creature may be tied to his long-lost twin brother Thomas, stillborn and now seemingly guiding him from beyond. Written by Kurt Busiek and brought to life with striking, unified art by John Paul Leon—pencils, inks, and colors all by Leon—this issue deepens the mystery with a chilling revelation that leads them toward political corruption, where shadows run deeper than the streets of Gotham. The cover by John Paul Leon captures the haunting intensity of the story, a stark silhouette against a storm-lit sky.
