Batman: The Dark Knight - Master Race #[nn]

The cover—rendered in stark black and white by Andy Kubert and Klaus Janson—strips Batman down to pure silhouette and shadow: a caped figure lunges diagonally across a pitch-black void, his outstretched fist and razor-edged cape the only shapes needed to command the entire image. It's a masterclass in minimalism, and the *Washington Post* pull quote on the cover itself calls the series "the rare comic book 'event' that lives up to its own hype." Brought to life by Frank Miller, Brian Azzarello, Andy Kubert, Klaus Janson, Brad Anderson, and Alex Sinclair, this 2018 collected edition of "The Master Race, Book 1" gathers the opening chapters of the Dark Knight's latest saga in one handsome volume.
