Convergence Batman: Shadow of the Bat #1

Part of DC's sweeping 2015 Convergence event, this first issue of a two-part series brings Larry Hama together with artist Philip Tan and inker Jason Paz for "The Dark Side of the Street." The cover, rendered by Tan and Paz, dominates with two armored figures in immediate conflict — a sleek blue-and-gold armored fighter lunges forward aggressively while a determined, classically-cloaked Batman looms large in the background against a stormy, lightning-streaked sky. It's a striking visual collision of styles and eras that sets a tense, high-stakes tone for everything that follows.
