“What I Am... Was Born from Death”

Part of DC's New 52 initiative, Batwing #8 from June 2012 drops readers into what the cover boldly promises is "A Massacre…in the Heart of Gotham!" Ken Lashley's cover art delivers on that tension immediately — a blood-spattered machete-wielding skull-masked villain looms over a battered Batwing in his sleek armored suit, with Batman visible to the left and Robin, a red-haired figure, and what appears to be Batgirl converging in the fiery background. Judd Winick's story, brought to life by artist Dustin Nguyen and inker Derek Fridolfs, carries the striking title "What I Am…Was Born from Death," suggesting this is one of those issues where Batwing's world gets genuinely dangerous.
