Red Hood: The Lost Days #2

A playing card — a Jack — riddled with bullet holes takes center stage on Billy Tucci's striking cover, its face split between images of Batman and the Joker, smoke curling from the fresh shots as a gloved hand grips a smoking gun barrel nearby. The imagery sets a charged, vendetta-soaked tone for this second chapter of the six-part miniseries, scripted by Judd Winick with interior art by Pablo Raimondi and Cliff Richards. If the series is charting the Red Hood's shadowed path between past and present, this 2010 DC release makes clear that both Batman and the Joker loom large over that journey.
