Gotham by Midnight #1

Ray Fawkes and Ben Templesmith launch this New 52 series with a cover that sets a distinctly noir-horror tone — a looming, lightning-eyed figure dominates the background while a grim ensemble of five characters stands before him, including a nun, a bespectacled officer, and two armed detectives, all silhouetted against rising flames below. Templesmith's moody, painterly linework gives Gotham City a supernatural dread that feels worlds away from the usual caped heroics. "We Do Not Sleep" promises a corner of the DC universe where the shadows hold something far stranger than ordinary crime.
