“The Cradle of Civilization”

Batwing #1 launches DC's New 52 with a striking cover by Ben Oliver, showing the armored hero surging upward — fist raised, blue-glowing eyes blazing — against a fiery amber sky while military helicopters flank him on either side. The sleek silver-and-blue Bat-symbol suit carries real visual weight, immediately establishing this as a hero with his own distinct identity within the Batman legacy. Writer Judd Winick and artist Ben Oliver open their run with "The Cradle of Civilization," a title that hints at ambitious, globe-spanning storytelling to come.
