The Batman's Grave #3

Issue three of Warren Ellis and Bryan Hitch's twelve-part series delivers a cover that pulls no punches — a battered, bloodied Batman grits his teeth in fierce close-up while a hulking armored figure looms behind him, red-eyed and menacing against a blood-splashed crimson sky. Hitch's linework crackles with intensity, capturing both the Dark Knight's defiant resolve and the sheer physical toll being demanded of him. With Ellis scripting and Hitch handling both pencils and inks, The Batman's Grave continues to feel like one of 2020's most serious-minded Batman stories.
