“Hearts”

In "Hearts," Batman faces a chilling mystery in Gotham City as living hearts—first those of doves, then cows—are vanishing without a trace. With the city on edge and no clear motive, the Dark Knight must unravel a bizarre pattern before the next victim is taken. Written by Marv Wolfman and brought to life with striking detail by Jim Aparo, Mike DeCarlo, and Adrienne Roy, this issue blends eerie suspense with the signature noir tone of Gotham. The cover by Michael Golden captures the unsettling mood perfectly.
