“Book Two: Capture”

In "Book Two: Capture," Batman endures the twisted influence of Deacon Blackfire, breaking free from his mind-altering drugs to face the cult leader in his underground lair. After being captured and sentenced to death, Batman escapes into the depths of the sewers, where Robin discovers him atop a grim mound of corpses—silent, resolute, and still in the fight. Written by Jim Starlin and illustrated with haunting detail by Berni Wrightson, the cover by Wrightson captures the story’s chilling intensity.
