Detective Comics #864

In "Beneath the Mask," Greg Rucka and Cully Hamner deliver a tense, character-driven thriller as Vandal Savage makes a chilling proposition to one of the world’s greatest heroes—take the mark of Cain, or both will perish. With Cully Hamner’s stark, expressive art and Dave McCaig’s moody colors, the story unfolds in the shadows of a world where ancient evils and modern desperation collide. Cliff Chiang and Hamner’s cover captures the weight of that moment with haunting precision.
