Batman: Gotham Knights #25

That striking Brian Bolland cover — a cloaked, gloved figure's wrists bound in handcuffs, viewed from behind — says everything without showing a face, making the question posed by the "Bruce Wayne: Murderer? Part Four" banner feel genuinely unsettling. The image of Batman (or is it Bruce Wayne?) restrained and powerless is a quietly powerful visual statement for 2002. Written by Devin Grayson with interior art by Roger Robinson and John Floyd, this chapter of the crossover event promises a story as tightly gripped as those cuffed hands.
