Récit Complet Batman #6

In "Creeper entre en scène !", journalist Jack Ryder, furious at Batman’s alleged role in the deaths of Talia and Ra's al Ghul, dons the mantle of the Creeper to take him down. When a wave of assassins attacks during their clash, the unexpected threat forces the Creeper to reconsider—Batman may be innocent, and a larger conspiracy is unfolding.

In "Gueule D'argile, troisième du nom !", Preston Payne’s desperate bid to cure his hyperpituitarism backfires spectacularly, transforming him into a living, melting horror fueled by the blood of Matt Hagen, the second Clayface. As his body dissolves and reforms, Payne begins dissolving others into raw protoplasm—putting Batman in the crosshairs when he intervenes to stop a crucial theft.

In "Façonné dans l'argile," Batman faces off against Clayface as the villain nears completion of a desperate bid to reclaim his humanity—only for the moment to erupt into chaos, fire, and the collapse of everything he’s built. The story unfolds with tense, visceral stakes, as the line between man and monster blurs in the heat of confrontation.

In "Au commencement," the Caped Crusader confronts a chilling echo of his past when the remnants of his father’s old Batman costume arrive in the mail, accompanied by a threatening note. As he grapples with the weight of that legacy, memories unfold of the night his parents were killed, the birth of his crusade, and the pivotal moments that brought him face to face with James Gordon and the first shadows he vowed to destroy.

In "Avec des amis pareils...", Jo joins Batman in tracking down the thief who stole his father's costume, triggering memories of his early days as Robin and his life under Bruce Wayne’s care. As Alfred reflects on his own past with Bruce, Batman confronts a web of old foes—among them the Joker and Two-Face—only to narrowly escape a deadly trap set in the Batmobile.

In "Le masque tombe," Batman races to uncover a new threat while grappling with the echoes of his past, from a tense exchange with Commissioner Gordon to a quiet moment with Lucius Fox that stirs a long-buried truth. As Bruce Wayne, he confronts memories that have long shaped his mission, leading to a moment of quiet reckoning beneath the weight of his legacy.
