About this Collection

This hardcover collects the second original graphic novel in the Earth One series, offering a standalone reimagining of Batman's early years. Written by Geoff Johns with art by Gary Frank, the story continues Bruce Wayne's gritty, grounded journey as he faces a new threat in Gotham City, further developing his supporting cast and rogues gallery outside of mainstream DC continuity.

In "The Price of Victory," James Robinson and Nicola Scott launch a bold new chapter in the Earth 2 universe, where Flash, Hawkgirl, and Atom clash with the relentless Grundy. As Green Lantern breaks free from the Grey’s grasp, he turns the tide by diverting nuclear missiles from Washington and banishing Grundy to the moon—only to walk away when his allies propose a team. Ivan Reis and Joe Prado’s striking cover captures the moment’s weight, setting the stage for a story where heroism comes with a steep cost.
