Batman: The Dark Knight #0

Part of DC's New 52 Zero Month initiative, Batman: The Dark Knight #0 takes readers back to the roots of the Dark Knight with the story "Chill in the Air," written by Gregg Hurwitz with interior art by Mico Suayan and Juan José Ryp. David Finch's cover delivers a visceral charge — Batman lunges forward, fist raised and cape billowing, bursting through a wall against a bold orange circle as a grey Gotham cityscape looms behind him. It's a confident, kinetic image that captures everything essential about the character: raw determination, physical power, and the shadow of the city he protects.
