Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight #0

Heralded by the banner "The Beginning of Tomorrow!", this 1994 DC zero issue opens Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight with a striking cover penciled by Joe Quesada and inked by James Palmiotti: Batman stands triumphant atop a domed rooftop, cape spread wide against a full moon, while a menacing red demon creature looms from the shadows at his side. Inside, the anthology story "Viewpoint" draws on an impressive roster of writers and artists — including Archie Goodwin, Jeph Loeb, James Robinson, Tim Sale, Mike Zeck, and many more — making this a genuine showcase of comics talent from across the industry. It's a fine jumping-on point for readers who want their Dark Knight stories told with depth and variety.
