“Hungry City, Part Three of Three”

In "Hungry City, Part Three of Three," Batman finds himself trapped aboard Tiger Shark’s ship, stranded in the treacherous waters off Gotham’s coast with no rescue in sight. With the pirate’s deadly sea creatures circling and time running out, Batman must use every ounce of cunning to survive. Written by Scott Snyder and brought to life with striking visuals by Jock—both in story and on the cover—this tense finale delivers a gripping showdown in the shadow of the sea.
