☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis collected edition presents the complete 13-issue miniseries Batman: The Long Halloween, a noir-infused mystery set early in Batman's career. Written by Jeph Loeb with art by Tim Sale, the story follows Batman, along with allies like Commissioner Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent, as they hunt a serial killer who strikes only on holidays. The case strains Gotham's fragile underworld truce and sets the stage for Harvey Dent's tragic transformation into Two-Face.
In "Crime," the chilling mystery of the Holiday killer deepens as Alberto Falcone's arrest seems to bring closure—only for the truth to unravel when Harvey Dent unleashes Arkham's most dangerous inmates, leading to Carmine Falcone's violent death. With Batman swiftly restoring order, the question lingers: if Alberto confessed, why does the real Holiday still walk free? Written by Jeph Loeb and illustrated with haunting precision by Tim Sale, this pivotal issue delivers a tense, atmospheric chapter in the saga, with cover art by Tim Sale that captures the story’s grim elegance.
In "Mother's Day," Batman confronts Calendar Man in Arkham Asylum on a tense Mother's Day, just as the Scarecrow slips free from his cell. Meanwhile, Sofia races to uncover clues about the Holiday killer, while Bruce Wayne finds himself on the run from the police, caught in a web of deception and danger.
In "Labor Day," Batman and Jim Gordon race against time to find the missing Harvey Dent, as the Holiday Killer strikes again—this time targeting Sal "The Boss" Maroni, whose true identity is revealed in a chilling twist. The investigation deepens in the shadows of Gotham, where every clue brings more questions than answers.
In "Punishment," Alberto Falcone’s confession to the Holiday murders throws Gotham into chaos, but when Harvey Dent frees Arkham’s most dangerous inmates to punish Carmine Falcone, the city’s darkest secrets begin to unravel. As Batman scrambles to contain the fallout, one question lingers: if Alberto is guilty, why did he confess?
