Batman: Curse of the White Knight

In Batman: Curse of the White Knight, a sequel to the original White Knight series, Sean Murphy continues his reimagined Batman mythos under DC's Black Label imprint. This 2020 series deepens the conflict between Batman and the Joker's reformed identity, Jack Napier, while exploring the violent legacy of the Wayne family. With Murphy as both writer and artist, the story expands the scope of the "White Knight" universe, introducing a new, more personal threat tied to Gotham's history. It matters as a bold, creator-driven take that challenges the traditional Batman-Joker dynamic.
