Batman by John Ridley: The Deluxe Edition

In 2021, DC Comics launched this deluxe-format prestige story from writer John Ridley and artist Nick Derington. The series reimagines Batman's early years through a fresh, socially conscious lens, exploring the weight of the cowl in a Gotham City that feels both familiar and newly urgent. A single, self-contained hardcover, it offers a complete, standalone vision of the Dark Knight's world.
