About this Collection

This volume collects the final storylines of the acclaimed Gotham Central series, focusing on the detectives of the GCPD's Major Crimes Unit as they investigate the murder of a young boy dressed as Robin. The case forces the officers to navigate the complex relationship between the police force and Batman, while also dealing with personal and professional fallout. Written by Ed Brubaker and Greg Rucka, with art by Michael Lark and Stefano Gaudiano, this concluding arc brings the series to a gritty, character-driven close.

"Dead Robin Part One" delivers a gripping chapter in Gotham Central, where the discovery of another dead Robin pulls the M.C.U. into a mystery deeper than they bargained for. With Ed Brubaker and Greg Rucka at the helm and José Ángel Cano López’s stark art bringing the tension to life, the story unfolds with sharp precision—each page heightening the dread as the Titans and Tim Drake confirm the unthinkable. Sean Phillips’ cover captures the moment’s grim weight, perfectly framing a city on edge.
