Detective Comics #782

In "Dead Reckoning Conclusion," Batman's mission takes a haunting turn as Alfred and allies quietly prevent a janitor from witnessing the Dark Knight place roses at the site of Bruce Wayne’s parents’ murder. With time running out, Batman and Jim Gordon confront the Charlatan at Arkham Asylum, where the line between past and present blurs in a desperate bid to save Harvey Dent from the monster he’s become. Written by Jason Hall and illustrated by Craig Rousseau, with colors by Lee Loughridge and letters by Janice Chiang, the issue’s stark, emotionally charged atmosphere is matched by Tim Sale’s haunting cover art.
