Batman - Die neuen Abenteuer: Hush #2

This 2006 German-language Panini collection brings together the work of writer Jeph Loeb and artist Jim Lee on one of Batman's most celebrated story arcs. Jim Lee's cover is striking in its composition — a brooding, bandage-faced Hush stands in sharp profile to the right, while a collage of Gotham's most dangerous faces looms behind him: Batman himself, the Riddler, Harley Quinn, and a leering Joker clutching a gun. The sheer density of rogues on display makes this volume feel like a tour through Gotham's darkest corners, and with chapter seven — "Der Witz" — promising a Joker-centric turn, fans of the saga will find plenty to savor here.
