Batman: As the Crow Flies

A taut, four-issue 2004 DC miniseries by writer Judd Winick and artist Dustin Nguyen, Batman: As the Crow Flies pits the Dark Knight against the Scarecrow in a nerve-wracking battle of fear and intellect. The story deepens Batman's rogues' gallery dynamics, with Nguyen's moody, stylized artwork lending a visceral edge to the psychological horror. It stands as a compact, atmospheric thriller that showcases Winick's knack for character-driven tension within the larger Batman mythos.
