Batman: The Long Halloween - The Last Halloween Noir Edition #1

The return of Jeph Loeb and Eduardo Risso's The Last Halloween gets a striking noir treatment right from issue one, and Tim Sale's cover — rendered entirely in moody blacks, whites, and grays — captures Batman in a tense, cape-billowing close-up that radiates brooding intensity. Sale's signature brushwork gives the Dark Knight a raw, kinetic energy, his cowl and clenched fist dominating the composition with quiet menace. If you've been following this ten-part series and want it presented in its starkest, most atmospheric form, this 2025 Noir Edition is a genuinely compelling way to experience it.
