Earth 2 #27

A stormy graveyard sets the stage for "Family Reunion!" as two dark-suited figures clash violently in the rain before the tombstone of Bruce Wayne — marked "Son, Father, Hero" — making the emotional stakes of this confrontation immediately clear. The Batman of Earth 2 squares off against a Nightwing-styled opponent in a cover by Gary Frank that crackles with tension, every raindrop and clenched fist adding to the charged atmosphere. Writers Tom Taylor and Marguerite Bennett, alongside artists Marcus To and Andy Smith, deliver what looks to be one of the New 52's more personal battles in this December 2014 issue.
