Batman Arkham: Black Mask

In 2020, DC Comics launched Batman Arkham: Black Mask, a single-issue spotlight on one of Gotham's most brutal crime lords. Written by Tom Taylor with art by Cully Hamner, this entry in the Batman Arkham series digs into the twisted psyche of Roman Sionis, exploring what drives a man to become the skull-faced kingpin of the city's underworld. It's a concise, character-driven portrait that captures the cold ambition and theatrical cruelty that make Black Mask a perennial threat in Batman's rogues gallery.
