Batman: Gotham Adventures #19

Robin finds himself on the back foot as the feral, looming Lion Man towers over him in a dramatic spotlight, while the scrappy, sickle-wielding Prairie Girl stands ready to join the fray — it's a lively, action-packed cover that sets up a fun clash of colorful characters. Batman: Gotham Adventures #19 (December 1999) continues the series' signature animated style, brought to life here by cover pencils from Bob Smith and inks by Terry Beatty, with the interior handled by the Peterson–Levins–Beatty team. A great slice of late-'90s all-ages DC storytelling with a genuinely entertaining rogues' gallery to match.
