About this Collection

This volume kicks off Urban Comics' Batman Showcase series, collecting a selection of key Batman stories from the 1990s and 2000s, including the iconic 'The Long Halloween' storyline. It features work by acclaimed creators like Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale, offering a curated entry point into modern Batman lore.

In "Maître Espion," Bruce Wayne doubles down on his global crusade, pushing the reach of Batman, Inc. while sending Red Robin to join the Outsiders. Under the alias Nero Nykto, he infiltrates a shadowy network led by the enigmatic Joe Average and his allies, blending espionage and vigilante tactics in a high-stakes game of deception. The story unfolds with Grant Morrison and Alex Nikolavitch’s sharp scripting, Chris Burnham’s dynamic art and inks, and Nathan Fairbairn’s evocative colors, all anchored by a cover by Burnham that captures the issue’s sleek, dangerous intrigue.
