I Am Batman #17

In "Motherless Child Part 2," Jace grapples with the seismic revelation that Tanya isn’t his mother, learning instead that his real mother is imprisoned by a terrorist militia demanding Lucius’s ransom. Written by John Ridley and illustrated by Christian Duce and Eduardo Pansica, with inks by Christian Duce and Júlio Ferreira, this emotionally charged issue sees Jace flee in turmoil while Tiffany, Vol, and Detectives Chubb and Whitaker race to find him—and rescue his mother—on their own. The cover, by Christian Duce, captures the weight of that moment in stark, haunting detail.
