“The Weekender”

In "The Weekender," Bruce Wayne faces a crisis of identity when he's arrested in connection with the murders of Sarah Worth and Lydia Warren, forcing him to confront the consequences of his dual life while in custody. As Oracle races to prove his innocence, a surprising confession from a fellow inmate hints that someone knows the truth about Batman’s real identity, while the Penguin teams up with Roland Worth in a dangerous plot to destroy Bruce once and for all. Written by Mariko Tamaki and brought to life with bold, expressive art by Dan Mora—both in story and on the cover—this issue blends high-stakes tension with the personal cost of being Gotham’s Dark Knight.
