Detective Comics #791
In "The Surrogate Part One: Lost and Found," a chilling crime unfolds when an ex-football player turned gangster shoots a pregnant woman—only for no bullet to be found. With the mother and unborn child fighting for survival, Dr. Thompkins reaches out to Batman to locate the woman’s family. Written by Andersen Gabrych and illustrated by Pete Woods, with inks by Cam Smith, colors by Jason Wright, and letters by Clem Robins, this gripping tale kicks off with a mystery that defies logic. The cover, a striking piece by Tim Sale, captures the tension with its stark, moody composition.
