“Babylon Falls [Contagion Part 8]”

In "Babylon Falls [Contagion Part 8]," Batman races against time to save James Gordon and Poison Ivy from a collapsing, fire-ravaged building, while back at the Batcave, Alfred tends to Robin, who's fallen ill to the mysterious Clench virus. With Oracle aiding Catwoman in tracking down the final survivor of the outbreak, Batman pushes through the chaos of Babylon Towers, where every step brings new danger. Written by Chuck Dixon and brought to life by Graham Nolan’s sharp art and Scott Hanna’s inks, the issue blends high-stakes action with a creeping sense of dread, all rendered in vivid color by Gloria Vasquez and Android Images. The cover, by Graham Nolan and Scott Hanna, captures the moment of crisis with tense, dramatic flair.
