Batman: The Knight #4

As he adapts to the rigorous discipline, Bruce forms an unexpected bond with one of the other students, deepening his journey into the mindset of a true warrior. Written by Chip Zdarsky and brought to life with striking visuals by Carmine Di Giandomenico—both in pencils and inks, with color by Ivan Plascencia and letters by Pat Brosseau—this issue captures the quiet intensity of Bruce’s formative trials. The cover by Carmine Di Giandomenico perfectly frames the moment’s gravity.
