Batman Taschenbuch #1

When news spreads that Batman has died, the criminal underworld erupts in claims of responsibility — and Ra’s al Ghul convenes a trial to sort truth from lies. With Two-Face as prosecutor, Catwoman steps forward to tell her version of events, but her story unravels under scrutiny.

In "Wo warst du, als Batman starb?, Teil 2: Mr. Sphinx sagt aus!", the Riddler takes the stand to recount his final moments with Batman, but as the trial unfolds, Two-Face uncovers a critical inconsistency in his story—leaving the courtroom in stunned silence. With the evidence mounting and the list of suspects growing, the truth behind Batman’s death remains just out of reach.

In the third part of the gripping courtroom drama "[Wo warst du, als Batman starb?, Teil 3:] Lex Luthor sagt aus," Lex Luthor faces accusations of murdering Batman, but his alibi is shattered when Superman unexpectedly takes the stand—only to reveal a startling contradiction in Luthor’s timeline. With the trial hanging in the balance and the assembled rogues' gallery watching closely, the truth behind the Dark Knight’s fate begins to unravel in ways no one anticipated.

In "[Wo warst du, als Batman starb?, Teil 4:] Die Aussage des Jokers," the Joker takes the stand in a trial that shakes Gotham’s underworld, claiming to have killed Batman—but when Two-Face demands proof, the courtroom is thrown into chaos. As the trial unravels, the truth behind the murder begins to surface, with Batman playing a double game beneath the guise of Two-Face, and the real culprit slowly revealed in a web of deception.

In "Ätsch!", Commissioner Gordon and Alfred Pennyworth orchestrate a surprise birthday celebration for Bruce Wayne at Wayne Manor, but the real challenge lies in keeping the secret of Batman’s hidden identity safe—especially when the Commissioner’s curiosity threatens to uncover the Batcave’s many mysteries. With the help of a few unexpected allies and a dash of clever misdirection, Alfred must outwit the Commissioner at every turn, all while keeping the party plans on track.
