Curt Swan’s art, with Vince Colletta’s inks and Ben Oda’s lettering, brings the moment to life, while Jim Aparo’s cover captures the intrigue with his signature style.
When Batman uncovers a mysterious Civil War relic, he enlists Professor Carter Nichols to send him back in time, where he joins forces with Scalphunter to safeguard a vital shipment of medical supplies. With the help of Alfred Pennyworth’s quiet resolve and the determined efforts of Martha Jennings, the duo must navigate the dangers of a divided battlefield, facing Confederate and Union soldiers alike.
