Batman Extra #7
In "Prophet der roten Sonne," Batman intervenes just in time to stop an attack on a young woman, only to face a foe who moves with the ferocity of a werewolf. As both Bruce Wayne and the Dark Knight investigate, the mystery leads to Anthony Lupus, a man transformed by a serum developed by the enigmatic Professor Milo. With Len Wein’s sharp storytelling and Neal Adams’ powerful art—inked by Dick Giordano—this 1983 tale blends suspense and supernatural dread, while Jim Aparo’s striking cover captures the eerie intensity of the story.
In "Das Grauen heißt Clayface!", Preston Payne attempts to inherit the shape-shifting powers of the second Clayface, Matt Hagen, by using his blood—but the experiment backfires catastrophically. As his body begins to melt, Payne discovers that only transforming others into living protoplasm can temporarily halt the spreading decay.
In "null," Batman confronts Preston Payne just as he nears completing a device meant to restore his former body—only to see the entire experiment go up in flames before it can finish. The story unfolds in tense, fleeting moments, leaving the aftermath and the true cost of that choice deliberately unresolved.
In "Vollmond... Wolfsmond," Batman intervenes to stop an attack on a young woman, only to face a foe who seems straight out of legend—a werewolf. As both Bruce Wayne and the Dark Knight investigate, the mystery leads to Anthony Lupus, a man transformed by a serum from Professor Milo, turning him into a creature of the night. The story unfolds as Batman confronts the man behind the beast, but the outcome remains uncertain.
In "Die Katze gegen Conover," Jo, once a criminal, now tries to live by the law—only to find her past catching up when she encounters her former gangmate Louie. Suspicious of his sudden change of heart, she confronts him during a break-in, setting off a tense clash between old loyalty and new principles.
In "Tod eines Draufgängers," Batman takes on a perilous leap across a massive chasm—meant for the daredevil Al Uriel, who’s vanished. With no time to spare, the Dark Knight follows the trail, uncovering a shocking twist: the stunt was never about bravery, but a calculated escape from fear, masterminded by Uriel himself.
