Batman: Gotham Knights – Gilded City #5

The penultimate chapter of this six-part series arrives with a cover by Greg Capullo and Jonathan Glapion that practically crackles with tension — Red Hood stands triumphant in a blaze of red and orange, twin guns raised overhead in a burst of blinding light, while Batman's silhouetted figure looms in the foreground, gadget at the ready. Writer Evan Narcisse and artist Abel have been crafting a Gotham noir steeped in history, and "Mysteries & Masks" promises that the friction between these two very different members of the Batman family is far from resolved. With only one issue left after this, the stakes couldn't feel more charged.
