About this Collection

This deluxe hardcover collects the four-issue 1988 miniseries Batman: The Cult, written by Jim Starlin with art by Bernie Wrightson. The story follows Batman as he is captured and brainwashed by a charismatic cult leader named Deacon Blackfire, who has amassed an army of the homeless in Gotham City's underground. This edition features restored colors and a new introduction, presenting a dark and psychological chapter in the Dark Knight's history.

In "Prologue," the final chapter of Grant Morrison’s *Batman R.I.P.* saga unfolds with high stakes and chilling tension. Batman confronts the assembled Club of Villains before facing The Joker in a showdown that tests the limits of mind and will. Illustrated with intensity by Tony S. Daniel and brought to life in striking detail by Alex Ross on the cover, this deluxe edition captures the dark crescendo of a defining era in Gotham’s history.
