Batman: Knightfall #2

This volume collects the second phase of the sprawling 1990s Batman epic, focusing on the 'Knightquest' storyline. As Bruce Wayne recovers from his broken back, the mantle of the Bat is taken up by the violent and unstable Jean-Paul Valley (Azrael), whose brutal methods escalate the conflict with the criminal underworld. The collection includes issues from the Batman, Detective Comics, and Shadow of the Bat series, charting Azrael's increasingly dark tenure as Gotham's protector.
